Quoted from Zimmer:

The odds are not the same. Your odds go up if you buy 4 tickets in one raffle, not 1 ticket in 4 raffles.

If you buy 1 ticket in four 1-in-200 raffles, it gives you a 1/50 chance of winning a game. If you buy 4 tickets for one 1-in-200 raffle that also gives you a 1 in 50 chance of winning a game.

If you have entered four 1-in-200 drawings your likelihood of winning one of the four is 1 in 50.
You have to look at each drawing as increasing your odds since you have given yourself multiple chances to win by entering more than one raffle. It is not increasing your odds of winning a particular one of the 1-in-200 raffles but it is increasing your chances of winning overall by being entered into 4 instead of 1.

Quoted from BeaglePuss:

Holy Moly.... That's come creative math.
So if there were 200 raffles and you bought a single ticket for each, would you automatically win 200 games?

I should have said approximately 1 in 50 since you have randomness. Of course if you bought one ticket for 200 different raffles you would not be guaranteed a win.

It is not clear at all that any raffle is tied to the donation for a sticker.

Quoted from LJH:

I can't find where it tells percentage of LE tickets sold. please post if you find it.

The tracker is lower on the page where it is green.

Quoted from gecko157:

Why was this a "software" drawing instead of drawing a name out of a box like all the others???

I did not enter this particular raffle but it did seem very unprofessional. There should be a written/stated rule on how the winner is selected that is always followed. Also, it seems the entrants should get numbers 1-200 before the raffle to assure people that the raffle was not oversold. The drawing should always be live and that way when the drawing is made a name and number is announced and people can see that there is less chance something shady is happening.

Congratulations! You are the first one to correctly guess all 3 pinball machine toppers! Please email us at [email protected] with your contact information to receive your lapel pin!

Please give my win to fellow cat avatar Pinsider @ZeldaOoT. He/she seemed to want one and I am in a pay-it-forward kind of mood. Thanks
