I have a proposition. So, some of us rafflers may want the more expensive items, but would like to keep the tickets cheap-ish. If the tickets are cheap who'd want to use the more valuable items? I suggest that when you pick an item that you'll accept as tickets, you can say how many tickets that item is worth.

Let's say... Tickets are 100 Silver Beetles each. But maybe someone is wishing to get that Gold Beetle they've been wanting. How about being able to set that Gold Beetle to give more than one ticket. (I'm not exactly sure how many. Maybe 15 tickets. I'm not really feeling like the math, that's just an example.)

That many may be too much- I'm sure it could be worked out by the person setting up the raffle.

The person who starts the raffle then gets a chance of getting those more desired things. It's good for everyone. Most likely bonus tickets for the buyers and better items for the original owners.

If you support, thanks! If you don't, you can leave a comment and say why (you don't have to). I'm very new to this board thing, so thanks for reading!

Edit:
You don't have to use this option- you can still set the ticket price for each item to one.



This suggestion has 194 supports and 4 NO supports.

I support. If the SB ticket price is low than it kind of defeats the purpose of paying with items of higher worth, if available. Making GB, oasis items, rare items, etc. give multiple tickets (if you so choose) would help encourage people to choose the other payment options.

I do not understand, however I think it is a good idea if it helps encourage non-SB tickets to be bought

Can someone explain?

If you have the price of 1 ticket at, lets say 50SB, and you have the price of 1 GB for the same amount, then nobody would want to pay in GB. However, if you decide to change it so 1 GB = 100 tickets (or something idk) and 50sb = 1 ticket then it will encourage people to pay the GB price so they get more tickets at once. The same goes for rare/valuable items and such.

With our current system, it would need a big rework on how tickets are bought, and we're not sure this 1 suggestion is worth the work put into it for now, so we're putting it up as "considering" still.

Also there's SO much potential for people to enter wrong things, like "I meant to set it to 5 not 50, can someone edit it?" .. and no, it'd be super hard to undo it. Very, very hard. :c so we're still on fence.

Xylax, couldnt they simply end the raffle, refunding the items/sb/gb, and not pick a winner, and redo it, then? (I cant remember if you can still do that?)

this would be SUPER helpful and make much better use of the raffle system, as well as eliminate the need for most raffles through the forums, which can be shaky as far as how to cancel a raffle, sending items back, etc
