It's almost ready... really, I promise!

Hello again to my friends at SEN. Im currently constructing the new R2BMBS2 game. You all may have remembered the previous one, which was so sweet when it lasted. Well it's coming back. This time just a bit bigger then before. Yes, it's bigger (it doesn't look like it... but it is). There will be a few twists in this one however. For now, im not going to give any comments on the twists. However im going to post this simply as a teaser before I can set it up fully. I will bump this up when it's ready. For now.

It costs 25 sen minerals to play (im broke now, remember?).

Information:
- 25 to play, choose a box.
- The total payoff is 400 in all.
- Each box is guaranteed to have at least 5 minerals and at max 50 minerals and one special 100 box.
- The increased cost to choose a box plays into the "twist" in the game.
- You must call your box before purchasing it.
- You are limited to buying only 3 boxes total (new rule to prevent botching the game).
- This version is not as generous as the previous. Be warned.





QandA section:

Q: What happened to all your 7000 minerals man?
A: Mindarchon brainwashed me and blackmailed me and said he would touch me in inappropriate places unless I gave him all the minerals (teehee!).

Q: When will it be up?
A: When I have time. Probably later after I fix my new comp (gasp!? Fix a new comp?).

Q: OMFLIPPING GARSH! YOU ARE TRYING TO STEAL OUR PRECIOUS BLUE MONEY!
A: Who wants that stuff anyway? Im hoping to gain enough to host another one. You would like that wouldn't you. Yes you would, yes you would.

Q: Any more twists?
A: Of course, who said I was done?

Why would I play this when I get better odds+payouts with 50/50 raffle??

Because of the twist. I might as well spill a little bit.

Buying a box is like buying a 50/50 raffle, only with more earnings.
If you truly think about it, it will take a good amount of people buying boxes to "get rid" of the total 24 boxes. Once all 24 boxes are gone, there will be 600 minerals in the pot. Essentially someone has a chance of earning that total. Im going for something known as tier raffles.

There are three tiers of boxes, each one with a different earning ratio.
Each box already has a determined tier. Gamble man.
The ratio is determined by how many minerals are accumulated as a whole.

In other words, you get two chances to earn big if you risk the 25. Once from the box being opened, and the second from the ratio raffle.

Im hoping to reach 0 minerals at the end of this.

Because you have up to three box choices, you have very high probability to fall within the second tier of earnings. Im still thinking really.
