Lottery

Why dont we start a big fook off lottery syndicate?

With, what is it 20,000 members, if we all put a quid in each week we could proberly make it worth while.

I'm not stepping forward to organise this, its only an idea (and a half-baked one at that).

I wouldnt mind winning some wonga!

One way we could do it, is if we started lots of smaller groups of say 15 in each group?

yeh but �10 split 20,000 ways? I think not, shooting is too gud for u on this occasion

I know there is only a small chance that only a small amount of money wud be won but still. To break even 2,000 lines wud at least have to win a �10.

Also the practicallity is a bit out seeing as each ticket can hold only 8 lines so, if 20,000 ppl were up for it then there wud 2,500 tickets that need to be held sumwere. Next it takes about a min to put a ticket through so thats 41 hours just to process the tickets.

I know several ppl cud probably do this by takin a group each but do we have that many honest members? For the amount we wud need i dont think so the leader of a winning group cud an probably wud take off an never be seen again, especially with 9 mill. Plus say we have groups of 15 ppl, if one group won they too cud easily do a runner with the jackpot, 9 mill split 20,00 ways is �450 each, split 15 ways its 600,000 which wud u choose?

I know the figures i used probably arent totally accurate but they do give a pretty gud picture of how difficult it wud be to do this an how unworthwhile it wud be. Nice idea though,
