How do you play Mark Six?
>In real life: You buy a ticket which allows you to choose seven numbers from 1~45. When the draw announces, you will be rewarded depending how many numbers you've got.

If you managed to get ALL six numbers, CONGRATULATIONS! You've got the first prize! ALL the minerals in this game will go to..YOU!
Edit: You still get to select 7 numbers, but only 6 numbers is required for first prize.
Second Prize: Getting five numbers correct will have 45% of the minerals going to you.
Third Prize: Getting four numbers corect will have 35% of the minerals going towards you.
If no one gets the first, second or third prize, anyone who got 3 numbers correct will get back their 10 minerals.
50% of the remaining minerals will go towards the next game.

This is different. While the SEN lots cost you over 50 minerals, this one only cost you 10.
Also while the SEN lots got 1 numbers, we here got 6 numbers
While SEN lots is once per month, this one is once per week

Don't you get me wrong! You get to select 7 numbers, yes. However, only 6 numbers will be drawn per week. If any 6 out of the 7 numbers of your choice is drawn, you win a prize! (actually, the 7th number is called the 'bonus' number and is worth half a number, but I simplifed it)

There is one BIG problem with this.
First: 100% minerals
Second: 45%
Third: 35%
Thats 180%. Are you going to supply the extra 80% by yourself? What if people draw all those places and what if 2 people draw the same place in the same round?
