This is a non-promotion - it's another scam designed to get you to dump your Party points. 500 winners only when at peak times there 90,000 players? And a winning ticket is only $200?

And why run it for several days? If you get 60 points tomorrow, you can dump all your points there and then.

80,000 points is worth about $200 in merchandise. I'd be willing to trade 80,000 for that amount, but I'm not going to risk it on a dubious longshot.

Unless we are missing something I think you're dead on. We should call this MayDumpYourPartyPointsDaze.

I think I'll offer Party $100 to buy one of my lottery tickets for a raffle I'll be holding soon... Anybody want one.

with 8000 tickets, I don't think it's a longshot - actually I think this might be your best oppurtunity to exchange points into cash

80,000 points=800 tickets

[shdw01]

Anyone remember how many total tickets were purchased last time? (did they even announce total tickets?)

That is besides the 10,000 tickets that Party purchases.

[big dummy]

In case anyone hasn't done the calculations...
If value of a Party Point is $.003, then this is +EV if they sell fewer than about 300,000 tickets. (excepting the rare instance of winning two tix.)

Anybody want to correct my math? Any guesses on how many they might sell?

[Q_and_A]

No tickets for me.
