FAI: A lottery in the name of Tymora. (Take two!)

Unread post by Ivan38Rus »

On a heavily guarded merchant stand inside Friendly Arm Inn a well-constructed sign is hanging. Among various trinkets of exceptional quality and power, there stands a golden bowl with a magnificent 100-sided dice inside.


A LOTTERY IN THE HOLY NAME OF TYMORA!

WORTHY ADVENTURERS, COME AND GAZE UPON THE PRIZES YOU MAY WIN
IF YOU DECIDE TO TEST YOUR LUCK IN THE ANCIENT GAME OF DICE

Roll a dice and write down your result in a registry book. The results will be announced at the end of this tenday.

Everyone will win something!

There is only one rule: you cannot decline your prize no matter what.

~OOC clarifications~


No PMs with offers. All items listed below can be obtained only by winning them by clear luck.

Players register their result in this thread by making an IC post and adding their Bioware account name to it. Only one roll per person is accepted. You don't necessarily need to actually make a roll IG. You can simply choose a number between 1 and 100 (including 1 and 100) as well as use external random generators like www.random.org

It will continue until rolls for each "lot" are accepted. In order to eliminate ties, if someone had already registered the number you chose, either reroll or choose another.

Once all rolls are accepted, I will roll d100 for each "lot" to determine who gets what (similarly, in order to avoid ties I will reroll if results are repeated).

We all are aware that the in built Diceroller is rigged so that lower results have higher chance of happening. In order to avoid low results being automatically associated with (possibly) best and most desireable lots, I'll be choosing lots by random when associating rolls with them.

Equal results win automatically. Example: Person №1 rolled 15, Person №2 rolled 16. The roll for the item was 15. Person №1 wins hands down.

Closest results win, but lower ones have priority. Example: Person №1 rolled 51, Person №2 rolled 53. The item roll was 52 and the item goes to the Person №1 because his roll is lower.

I'll try to update the book with registry every day.

If there is something unclear about these rules, please send a PM with question. I'll try to explain to the best of my ability.

Cerwyn spends several moments reading the rules, then lets out a loud grunt.

Hmm, where's the catch? He's just giving this stuff away? For free?

He shakes his head in disbelief, then pulls out an old set of dice and tosses them in the dirt. After adding up the numbers, he snatches the dice back up and writes in the registry book.

Vicala peers inside the golden bowl and then glances at the others with a hint of disbelief. Slowly she reaches for the die and appraisingly rubs a thumb over it, as if trying to find a flaw, until she finally shrugs and then somewhat eagerly throws the die over the table. She registers her result and steps back, rubbing her hands together.

Beatrice decides to try her luck. She rolls the strange dice:

*Delphinn approaches the lottery. He looks at the others and shares their disbelief. After a moment he shrugs and reaches for the strange dice. Just before he rolls the dice he mumbles two prayers - one asking Tymora for luck, the other begging Beshaba to stay away.*

Aerin approaches the crowd and subtly makes her way through, a lingering smile upon her lips as she registers the roll speaking softly "Helm see's all, may he see this one as well" the beautifull Aasimar gracefully wanders off in her blue dress and ponders if divinity is cheating.

"What?? Is this for real? No joke?" A young woman looks around. She grins a wide grin and grabs the dice. She tosses it into the bowl and gets . . .
