I am revamping the Pharaoh's Tomb (Win $100,000) game to give out prizes. However, I have yet to make anything worth giving out.  So I am opening it up. If you want some advertising at the cost of a donated prize for my game to give away, here is the deal. - You choose what % chance the prize is given away from 1% to 5%. - The game will say 'You found X Prize! (Donated by Y)' when someone wins your prize. - The game will give them a notecard with the prize in it and whatever text or landmarks you wish (PG sim appropriate). - Limit of 2 prizes per sponsor max. - I will give 30% chance total to sponsors. If this interests you reply here or contact me in game.

The system is built, the game running. I can now easily add prizes without losing the odds data.
However in setting this up a few things about how it is going to work has changed:
- You can only put fully permissive items in a notecard. And that is not ideal for prizes. So instead I will need this from all sponsors: - - A prize - - A message to say when they win your prize - - A notecard (optional) - - The odds you wish them to win your prize.
Still a max of 2 prizes per sponsor.
When the pyramid pays out again you will be contacted to see if you wish to keep your prize in, adjust odds, replace it or remove your prize. In other words getting a prize in this time will give you first choice of spaces next time.
Right now it is giving out a T-Shirt courtesy of Alek Wu.

I would like to add some prizes to your list. I just have one question...does it have to be specific themed prize or can it be any type of prize that we would like to give out?

Themed prefered, but not required.
If you decide to change your prize at a later date, that is also possible.

I only ever got 2 prizes - a Shirt made by Alek and a Pot from Devlin. This opportunity is still available and spaces will roll over to the next running of the contest (after someone wins).

I have a themed donation and will contact you in game. It is unclear from your posting what the expected value of the donations should be (that is - what the player's stake is and therefore the appropriate payout). The value of mine is greater than a brick but less than a helicopter.

The game itself costs $100 per entry striving towards a $100,000 goal, with better odds after each bet. You are allowed to decide the percent chance your prize will be given out from 1% to 5%. If you don't tell me even after I ask, I put it at 3%.  There should be at least 1,000 bets each game, potentially a lot more.

As I announced in the general forum, Loki Pico just won the $100,000 dollars.
There will be a very short down time of the game while I change some stuff (mostly post-winner things, and some sayings). Now is the best time to get your prize donations to me. Lots of slots open all I need is:
- The prize with copy permissions - A notecard advertising your company/product/service - The line you want the pyramid to say when someone gets your prize - The % chance for someone to get your prize from 1% to 5%.
