Default Credit Jackpot

Its pretty easy to cheat on this you can just look at how much arrows are hit before like 4 minutes of it ending. Maybe you can take out the arrows hit today until you guess or something.

It doesn't work like that FFRGreen. You are guessing for the next day. You have to put in your guess before 12:01 am.

If you look at the guesses for today you will see

FFRGreen 18,827,392

This is your guess from yesterday, or from before midnight this morning.

I don't like that the cost of guessing seems to be rising by a factor of 10. Why don't you guys cap it at 1,000 credits per guess or something?

I hope they do this. :/

I wonder if it's soon going to cost 50,000 credits a guess...

I think it should rotate between amounts. So theres "small" "medium" "large" or something. (10, 100, 1000)

Also I originally thought what the OP stated until I read it carefully earlier today. XD So don't worry, you're not alone in that thought.

Default Re: Credit Jackpot

Since theres a thread about Credit Jackpot, I'll throw the suggestion I had in here. I think that if someone manages to guess the amount of arrows exactly, they should get some sort of bonus, like maybe double the credits or something. Not exactly sure how to make something like that work, but if someone does manage to guess exactly, they deserve it lol.

The cost to enter changes every day. It is random based on an array of preset values.

100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 1000

I have a question about Credit Jackpot as well. Is it just the closest, or closest without going over?

I'm pretty sure it's just the closest, regardless of whether they're over or not.

1) Super jackpot for guessing right on the number.

2) Closest average guess after x days. x number of minimum amount of submissions required. Some type of jackpot for this.

example:
guess:
12,300,000
13,000,000

answers:
14,300,000
14,000,000

differences:
2,000,000
1,000,000

average equals 1.5 mill arrows off. Most accurate average wins.

Default Re: Credit Jackpot

top 3 should all get a share of the prize

1st: 50%
2nd: 30%
3rd: 20%

Plus, it will make more people enter knowing that they have a greater chance to win.
