Hello, and welcome to my lotto! (^_^)

I have had tons of fun with my previous two lottos, and I'm finally "rich" enough to offer up an awesome lotto prize: an Emo Bag!

I've made good friends in my lottos, and everyone seems to have a good time. I know I do!

So, please, participate in as many or as few contests as you like, chat, bump, and enjoy!





Can't afford a lotto ticket, but you really want one? Here's a guide that spells out just how many ways you cane make gold:



How do the tickets work?
How lotto tickets work:
1. Buy a ticket. If you buy multiple tickets, your chances of winning increase.
2. Wait for all the tickets to be sold.
3. When all the tickets are sold, a random number between 1 and 800 is picked by Gaia's random number generator.
4. If your number is picked, you WIN the Emo Bag!

Why is this lotto so huge and expensive?? It's only a dumb bag!
See for yourself here and here. The Emo Bag is a donation item from January 2004, meaning that it cannot be purchased from a store. The older the donation item, the more expensive/rare it is. Lotto funds also assist with the various other contests I hold on this thread.

What does an Emo Bag look like?
A few examples of what an Emo Bag looks like can be found in the following places:
1. I am wearing one.
2. If you take a look at the first banner on my thread, I have examples of how an Emo Bag looks on a model, both male and female.
3. There is a picture of it in the main lotto post.

600 tickets @ 550g/each
This Emo Bag is not for sale, so don't bother making offers on it.
To enter, please start trade.
Please label trade as "EMO BAG LOTTO".
Entries will be labeled "pending" until trade is complete.
You may specify which number(s) you want, pending availability.
There is no limit to how many tickets you may purchase.
Winner determined by Gaia's random number generator.
Refunds granted if I decide to end the lotto prematurely.
If the lotto is going too slowly for you, feel free to invite your friends to purchase tickets.
If you change your username during this lotto, please PM me and let me know. Otherwise, I won't be able to find you if you win.
* Due to inflation, spending more money/gold than I had first anticipated on this thread and other reasons, I have decided to increase the number of tickets to 800. If you purchased a ticket prior to March 25, 2006, you are eligible for a refund if you wish. This offer is limited to tickets 1, 2, 4-15, 45, 66, 77, 85, 93, 104, 137, 179, 235, 244, 265, and 300. Thank you for your understanding.

PRIZE:
Emo Bag (I am wearing it.)

This had started out as a highest donator contest. I had already secured valuable art from various artists. Now that these type of contests are no longer allowed, I still want to encourage and reward donators to this thread.
Please label trade as "LOTTO THREAD DONATION"
You may donate more than once.
Donation totals are cumulative per user.
Donations can be gold or items.
I accept any and all items.
Check out my wishlist to see which items I would like.
Value of donated items determined by store price or Lucky Devil Price Guide. (Seeking new price guide, as LD is no longer being updated.)
Please refrain from needlessly pestering the artists.

TOKENS OF APPRECIATION:
1. Donation of 20,000g or more* - Custom pillow chibi art (single person) from Runic1's art shop, Dagaz. Her shop is now CLOSED FOREVER, so the only way to get her art is through donations to me! I have already confirmed an art slot with her, no matter the status of her shop.

2. Donation of 10,000g* - Single person "Portrait Two"-style art from Tsubaven's art shop, Clockwork Little Happiness.

3. Donation of 5,000g - Choice of custom art (single person) from SoylentGreen Is People's art shop.
*Unfortunately, only one person will be able to "win" these spots, sorry. sweatdrop

Much love and indebtedness to the artists! heart
If anyone else would like to offer their own art as further donation love, please PM me.

Q: OK, so if I donate 5,000 I get Soylent art, then if I donate another 5,000 I get Tsubaven art, etc.?
A: No. Once you hit a milestone amount, I will ask you if you would like to claim art. If you choose to do this, your donation total will be "reset" to 0g. If you choose not to, you can donate your way to the top! (^_^)
In other words, if you wanted all three pieces of art, you would have to donate a total of 35,000g or more.

Donators (by amount)
1. OBsessed7911
TOTAL: 5,301
G-LOL Dark Mistress Skirt (1,301)
Patchwork Boots (4,000)

2. Bloody Vampiraa
TOTAL: 650
Buck Teeth (650g)

3. KousukeAsazuki916
TOTAL: 200
Curly Elf Shoes (100g)
Jack Uniform Pants (100g)

4. Shadarille
TOTAL: tbd
Jack Uniform Gloves
Goldenrod Paper Cat Band

To enter, PM entries with the subject "ART CONTEST"
Entries accepted until end of lotto.
You may enter as many times as you like.
From all entries received, I will choose my favorite three.
Winners determined by top three vote on thread.
First to 100 votes wins.
Voting snapshot at that time to determine 2nd and 3rd Place.

REFERENCES & PREFERENCES:
Other than anthro, all types of art welcome.
Art may be created with any media or combination of media.
Art does not have to be colored (though it's always nice).
Art is to be of my avatar.
Please make the picture/scan decent-sized.. I can always resize it. 3nodding

- Wildflower Black Hair or Wildflower Blue Hair or Girl's Groovin' Orange
- Emo Glasses (unless wearing other eyewear)
- Coffee Mug (no color preference)
I do not smoke IRL, but I think it fits with the Card Game avatar. Please do not draw me with a cigarette, unless it is the Card Game avatar.

PRIZES:
1st Place - 15,000g
2nd Place - 10,000g
3rd Place - 5,000g

Probable consolation prizes, as I love art and value your time. heart

The first poster on each 100th page will receive 100g.
You do not have to be a thread regular to win.
In the event that I am the prize poster, I will generate a random number on the following page, and that person who posted on the previous page will be the winner.

Example:
First post on p100 is me.
I wait for the other 14 posts to be made on p100.
On p101, I generate a random number between 2-15, for posts 2-15.
That person is the winner of the 100g.
