There will be over 200 million credits worth of prizes for you guys to win, please do yourself a favor and take advantage. These events are some of the best (and most profitable) fun you can have in SWTOR and they're not something you wanna miss out on.
CURRENT LOTTERY JACKPOT AMOUNT: 167.3 million
*GUILD LOTTERY*
![](http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--wcR_nJtu--/18s4hvr16zwi5jpg.jpg)
PROCEDURE:
Those of you who were around for the last lottery will know exactly how this works already. We haven't changed anything from last time. For those of you who don't know, I've provided an explanation.
The lottery will revolve around the use of this random number generator. Buying 1 "ticket" will grant you 1 random number that will be entered into a master list of all tickets. At our next guild event (May 7th) we will use the generator to select a winning number. Whichever member has the closest number to the winning one will win the jackpot. Tickets are sold by all officers for 100k each.
The guild bank will throw in 30,000,000 credits towards the jackpot just to get things started. 100% of all tickets sales will go directly into the jackpot, increasing its size. More tickets sold = bigger jackpot to be won. The lottery winner will win this entire amount. Also, the masterlist of all tickets sold is visible to the public. See here if you'd like to check it out.
Step-by-step, this is how the lottery will go:
- Member purchases ticket(s) from an officer.
- After receiving the cost of the ticket(s), officer will then immediately go to the random number generator and set the generator to put out a number between 1 and 100,000.
- Officer will then go to the masterlist of entries on the forum and add member's name + number(s) to the list. (ie. Siino -- 1234, 420, 80076, etc)
- At our next guild event, I'll use the number generator to select a winning number for the lottery. I will then compare this number to all of the ticket numbers and find the one that is closest to our winning number.
- After the officers have confirmed that I'm correct, we'll announce the winner and trade/mail them the jackpot amount depending on whether or not they're present at the event.
BUYING TICKETS:
Tickets cost 100,000 credits each. You may buy as many tickets as you want. Deadline for purchasing tickets is May 7th @ 6:00pm PST -- 2 hours before the guild event starts.
You have 2 options for purchasing tickets:
- Check the guild list and see if any officers are online. (Caporegime, Underboss, Consigliere, or Godfather ranks designate officers.) If there is an officer online, whisper them and let them know you'd like to purchase ticket(s). The officer will meet you somewhere so you can trade the cost of the ticket(s) to them.
- If there are no officers available, you can send an in-game mail to the character "Ticket-seller" stating the amount of tickets you wish to purchase -- with the cost of them attached to the mail.
RULES:
- All ticket sales must go through an officer. Depositing credits into guild bank and saying "hey I got this number and my creds are in gbank" will not be allowed. Transaction with an officer is required in all cases, no exceptions.
- No one is permitted to choose their own numbers. We will keep everything completely random.
- To remain eligible to win, you must have at least one character present within the guild on the night of the event. Anyone who quits or gets permanently banned will have their tickets removed with them.
- There is no limit to the amount of tickets that can be purchased. You can buy 1 ticket or you can buy 1 million tickets, whatever you can afford.
- No discounts, loans, trades, paying later, etc. In order to get ticket for the lottery, you must personally pay the full price of 100k per ticket to an officer prior to any number being added to your name on the forum.
- Deadline for purchasing tickets is May 7th @ 6:00pm PST.
- Officers will not be allowed to participate.
- We will not use duplicate numbers. If the number generator gives out a number that someone else already has, we will simply generate another number.
- In the event of a tie, the win will go to the higher number. (Example: Say the winning number is 100. Guildie-1 has 95 and Guildie-2 has 105. Although both people are equally close to the winning number, Guildie-2 is higher so they will win.)
*CONQUEST CONTEST*

HINT: To swap characters between our 2 guilds or get more characters added, simply type "/cjoin bbb" to join our custom chat channel. Then you can ask for an invite in there. (If no one is around to invite you, you can get in contact with an officer.)
PROCEDURE + RULES:
- It's really simple. The top 10 members with the highest amount of points from alt guild + the top 5 highest members from main guild will win the prize amounts listed below.
- We will be combining the scores of all your characters, thanks to the new legacy name feature. So unlike past contests, it will not be just one toon counted individually. Feel free to farm the shit out of points with your whole legacy. It will all be added up and counted towards your total score.
- You are allowed to win prizes from both guilds -- meaning you could get 1st in alt guild AND 3rd in main guild, for example.
- Contest starts as soon as the conquest week starts and it ends as soon as the conquest week ends.
- If you place in the top 10 but cannot attend the event then you will be mailed your winnings.
- Officers will not be allowed to participate in this contest.
PRIZES:
NOTE: The alt guild will need much more help than the main guild, which is why we are offering more credits to the people who help out there instead of the main guild.ALT GUILD PRIZES:

![](http://gamersdecrypted.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/TempleDuel-Deceived.png)
PROCEDURE:
This will be a classic 1v1 duel tournament. Nothing fancy, just straight up duels.
- The tournament will be in single-elimination format. (If you lose you're out of the category. If you win you'll fight against others who won their matches as well. This will continue until only one person is left - the person who won all their matches. Basically, it's last man standing.)
- All fighters will be invited to an ops group and randomly matched up with another fighter by the officer coordinating the fights.
- When it's their turn to duel, fighters will enter the designated fighting arena and wait until the officer directing the event gives the go-ahead to start dueling.
- Take down your opponent before they take down you and you win the fight.
- All matches except for the final few will consist of only 1 round. The final matches will be 3 rounds.
RULES:
- Must be level 65.
- Gear doesn't matter. Feel free to wear PvE gear if it's all you have.
- No healers allowed, tanks and DPS only. (Fights with healers take waaaay too long and are very boring to watch.)
- Companions are NOT permitted.
- Stims, medpacs, adrenals, and grenades ARE permitted.
- Stealth is allowed, but you cannot stealth out of the ring.
- Fighters must stay WITHIN the ring. Leaving the ring will result in a loss. (If you get pushed out by your opponent, simply get back in the ring ASAP)
- Members who are not currently fighting must stay OUT of the the ring at ALL TIMES. Also, do not obstruct view with AoE's/oversized mounts/etc. (Anyone who gets in the way will be banned from the guild stronghold for the duration of the event.)
- Anyone who fails to honor their bets will be removed from guild. Once the match is over, the loser must immediately pay the winner the agreed-upon amount.
- Keep the shit-talking in good spirit. (Don't freak out because you lost and throw a tantrum like a goddamn baby, it will NOT be tolerated.)
- Everyone must listen to the directions of the officers at all times.
- Officers ARE allowed to participate in this part of the event.
PRIZES:
1st place - 20,000,000 credits
2nd place - 15,000,000 credits
3rd place - 10,000,000 credits

*GIVEAWAYS*
![](http://www.relatably.com/m/img/oprah-giveaway-meme/l61eqg1.jpg)
After we've finished up with the things listed above, we will move on to the giveaways. We have decided to stick with the giveaway format from last time, which eliminates the need for all the /rolls on event night + provides you guys with more opportunities to win shit. As usual, the prizes will be various high value items such as mounts, decos, armor sets, weapons, emotes, etc. We refuse to cheap out on prizes and give you junk bullshit, so it will definitely be worth your time to participate.
For these giveaways, officers will be taking all the names of eligible participants and assigning them numbers with the random number generator we use for the lottery. On May 6th (the night prior to the event) the officers will meet up and go over the participant/number list to select the highest numbers and assign them prizes. Then on event night, when we get to this part all we have to do is announce winners and hand out prizes. If you'd like to participate, the giveaway categories are listed below. Deadline for entering giveaways is May 6th @ 8pm PST. (Obviously except for the conquest contest + duel tournament ones.)
You may participate in as many giveaways as you'd like, there is no limit. There's also no limit on how many giveaways you can win either. We will do at least 5-10 prizes per category at the bare minimum, but if there is more participation then expected in a certain category we'll increase the prize amount to be more fitting. Officers are not allowed to participate in any giveaways.

That covers pretty much everything regarding the event. If there's anything I've missed or if anything is unclear, please don't hesitate to leave a reply down below with any questions/comments/concerns/etc. Once again, every single member of the guild is not only welcome but strongly encouraged to participate.
