Question about the book raffle
Added 2018-05-24 18:16:59 +0000 UTCHey all,
I want to run the book raffle over the weekend. I am going to ask everyone to post tomorrow if they want to be in on the raffle.
My question is whether you all think that entries should be weighted higher for higher level patrons.
For instance, a $2 or $3 patron would have 1 entry, $5 would be 2 entries, $10 3 entries, and so on and so forth.
I'm guessing that I'm overcomplicating all of this and you guys don't care, so I am just gonna ask.
This poll will run until 11:30pm CDT today.

2018-05-25 19:08:28 +0000 UTCI'm like zero tier, just like to throw a couple bucks your way for everything you do for game lit, still I think if your pitching in a decent chunch every month then you should get a little bonus and if that little bonus comes in the way of an extra raffle ticket then why not. O.o though I think like tiers of like -3$/10 5$/15 10+$/20 would be a happy middle ground.

2018-05-25 03:07:26 +0000 UTCIf it were a legit raffle with tickets etc, someone willing to spend more could get more tickets in the drawing. Higher tier pays more and should get a little better odds of winning.

2018-05-24 21:04:33 +0000 UTCI'm on a higher tier, but it comes with it's own benefits. I like the equal option. Life may not be fair, but this can be.

2018-05-24 20:44:53 +0000 UTCIf you consider donation tier then you also have to consider the time for which people having been donating at any given tier or the process is open to abuse(switch to higher tier for giveaway and back to lower tier before end of month). At that point the whole thing becomes extremely complicated to weigh so I definitely vote for give everyone the same change. Full disclosure: I am on the second lowest tier.
2018-05-24 20:10:58 +0000 UTCNevermind, it would just have been interesting to see. I didn't mean for it to come off as petty or malicious.

2018-05-24 19:51:37 +0000 UTCI'm not entirely following. What third option? Also, I will consider the weigh when I look at the results. So far we only have 12 results. I think most readers are pretty cool people who will be impartial in their opinion, too.

2018-05-24 19:23:00 +0000 UTCOnly the higher tiered people are going to vote for this and I'm sure most of your patrons are lower level so you will most likely have a landslide for the former. Too bad you didn't put a third option for people voting that they don't like the idea. That way you could see how many of us are simply greedy.
