Game length: up to 14 Draws.

The amount being played for in Draw 1 is £34.

The 6 digit combination has now been set.
The combination is made up of the digits 1 through to 0.
Digit(s) in the combination can occur more than once.

The person whose Thunderball is drawn on Wednesday evening must post their 6 digit choice of combination on this thread by NO LATER than midnight Friday 3rd February.
Failure to do so will result in the prize money being permanently reduced.

If your name is highlighted in the above list and your Thunderball is drawn, then you will win DOUBLE money - £68, if your chosen combination opens the safe.

A different person will be chosen at random & highlighted in each Thunderball Owners List posted before each draw.
People may be highlighted more than once throughout the game but NOT in consecutive draws.

If the chosen combination fails to open the eSafe, then the drawn Thunderball becomes available for new ownership.

The new owner will be determined by the first person correctly answering a question that I will post on the game's REGISTER thread at some time AFTER Draw 1 but BEFORE midnight Friday.

The actual draw itself will determine whether the prize money goes up or down for Draw 2. This will be made clear in Saturday's Draw post, when the updated Owners List will also be posted.

Good Luck to you all.....I suppose.

Ada.

PS. I have this horrible feeling already, that I'm going to get relieved of a fair old wedge by the end of this game. Oh well c'est la vie...let's wait & see.

Make sure you monitor the 'Open Ada's eSafe Thunderball Game - REGISTER' thread to answer a question to become the new owner of Thunderball number 4 for Draw 2 on Saturday.

All you have to do is to be first to post the correct answer.

The question will be posted some time between now & midnight Friday on the 'Open Ada's eSafe Thunderball Game - REGISTER' thread.

[TheGoodGuy]

Mat s99, you have 5 hours to post your chosen 6 digit combination.

If you fail to do so the eSafe prize money will be reduced by £14.

I will update the Owners list & apply the RULES to establish how much you are playing for in Saturday's draw at midnight tonight.

I reckon 2 more (reasonable guesses)
and I'll have it.

As long as (Thunderball) number 2 don't get called in the next 2 draws, and somebody don't strike lucky in the next couple of goes! :D

Just to keep you all on your toes! :laugh

hehe foot in mouth comes to mind here :D

[bigcumba]

If you post the correct combination you win £12.
If you fail to post a combination by the above deadline the prize amount will be immediately REDUCED by £14.


Ada, does this mean that if Sparky didn't post an answer in time that the next contestant would be paying you £2 if they got the right answer? :wink

[TheGoodGuy]

:D Good point BigC :D

In all the 15 'test' games I have run prior to posting this as the real game that it now obviously is...

Not once out of 15 'games' using scenarios of the eSafe being opened after 8, 11 & 14 draws has the prize money dipped below £14.
The most I would have had to have stumped up would have been £72.

As this game is annoyingly heading towards zero prize money as opposed to something more enticing, I will NOT allow the prize fund to drop below £5, regardless of the RULES & penalties.

The other thing I suppose I should make clear now is that at whatever stage someone opens my eSafe, the game does NOT end there.

There is a final element to the game which as yet I have not disclosed, but there could be a situation where you could possibly win far in excess of the amount of what was in the eSafe when you managed to open it....or...

Conversely, you could win an amount less than what was in the eSafe when you opened it, OR in the worst case scenario....absolutely nothing.

It all depends on a decision that you will have to make after posting the correct combination.

Ada.

[bigcumba]

Thanks for clearing that up Ada, I knew you would have a 'twist' to the game :)

Sparky,

Your combination: 051150 has FAILED to open my eSafe, but what I can tell you is...

You have correctly picked 1 of the combination numbers OF WHICH 0 are in the correct position of the combination sequence.

051150
That wasn't what my original guess, which I thought was correct was,:doh but I misread the first 2 guesses and got it round my neck.:rolleyes: :butthead: :yikes: :)

[vegyjones]

I said I probably needed 2 more guesses,
but in light of Sparky's abject failure of an attempt,
I might need a further one! :D :peeky

I just couldn't work out a possible combination...

But I dug in and NOW, I have a combination that fits! :D

Come on ball number 2!!!!!

[TheGoodGuy]

Good luck to you Veg.... & Chris and anyone else who now thinks they may have cracked the correct combination to my eSafe.

Ada.

[vegyjones]

Been a cracking game Ada...

Now I just need the balls to drop my way! :D

[TheGoodGuy]

Hey Veg,

Once this game has reached its conclusion, & believe me there's more to come once the eSafe is opened.........I'm tempted to do it all over again in a second game.
What do you think........Yea or nay.......would you be interested in playing again?

Ada.

[vegyjones]

I think it's been really triffic... but you know I love your mind bending puzzles! :D

I've been sat here every Friday, with all the combinations in my spreadsheet
trying to work out all the possible combinations.

It has been really great!

And to be honest. It may not end any time soon, I'm still not sure I have the correct combination! :laugh

But overall, a game worthy of an award at this years awards ceremony! :D

Well done Ada, for keeping us all entertained!

(I think the twice weekly draws also helped to build up the excitement)

[vegyjones]

Booo!! :mad:

[silax]

damn means i got to try and work the bugger out now

[silax]

patience vegy

[silax]

ok my guess is ..........................

[silax]

269409
which looks good to me but saying that

[vegyjones]

That would have been my guess! :(

[TheGoodGuy]

Silax,

So you think your chosen combination 269409 looks good eh?

Well as a matter of fact.....



So do I!!!

:REDanceda Congratulations......269409 HAS opened my eSafe :icon_win:


You now have your hands on the £34 that was inside, but you have a bit more to do yet.....
This money is what you carry forward into the final stage of the game.


Read on.....














Throughout the game so far, the Thunderball has dictated who got to have a shot at opening the eSafe and also the prize amount to be carried forward into this final stage of the game…. so guess what……
Saturday’s drawn Thunderball will determine the final prize money amount you will actually walk away with.

Final Stage Rules

1. You must choose 9 of the 14 Thunderballs as yours for Saturday’s draw.

The remaining 5 will become mine.
Of these 5 I will split them into one group of 3 and one group of 2.

Prize Allocation

If Saturday’s drawn Thunderball is:

One of your chosen 9 then you will win 100% of the final prize amount.
One of my group of 3 then you will win 50% of the final prize amount.
One of my group of 2 then you lose and will win nothing.

2. You NOW have to choose 1 of the following three options:


A. THE SAFE OPTION

Depending on Saturday’s drawn Thunderball:
You will either win the full amount of the eSafe contents: £34;
50% of the full amount £17....or....
Absolutely nothing.

B. THE ' THAT SOUNDS GOOD' OPTION.

Alternatively, I will exchange the eSafe contents of £34 for 34 Thunderball tickets for Saturday’s draw.
Depending on the drawn Thunderball:
You will either win 100% of the value of the winning lines;
50% of the value of the winning lines....or...
Absolutely nothing.

The 34 Thunderball tickets I buy can either be chosen by yourself, or bought as Lucky Dips…..it’s up to you.
If you choose your own numbers I will require you to post them on this thread ASAP in order to give me reasonable time to buy them in readiness for Saturday’s draw.

So in theory you could be exchanging the eSafe’s £34 for anything between £0 & £250 000!!

C. THE 'CAN'T MAKE MY MIND UP' OPTION.

Your third choice is a mixture of the above.
You can split the £34 into two amounts, one share to be held back & the other to be exchanged for Thunderball tickets.
The size of each share is up to you, but the smallest share MUST NOT be less than £10, and both shares MUST add up to the full £34.
NOTE: The drawn Thunderball rule will apply to BOTH the share amount held back & the value of any Thunderball winning lines.

So Silax, there you have it…
Please reply to this post with your 9 chosen Thunderballs & your preferred option A, B or C.
I will respond accordingly.

What do you think he should do, the rest of you?

Ada.

[bigcumba]

Well done Silax on getting the winning combination... I knew I'd kick myself when I saw it - that was my first choice when I was guessing then I changed it 4 times to what I finally posted...

Very nice little twist to the game Ada! :D

I'd go for option C...

[Iron Chris]

Well done Silax..:) .. that was my new code as well..:( .. and an excellent twist to an excellent competiton Ada..:)

I think out of the three options I would go 'B' - just in case..:wink

[silax]

cheers ada
ok i'll go for option b
do i still have to pick 9 thunderballs if so 1-9
all lucky dips

[TheGoodGuy]

Silax,

Just to make sure....

You want Thunderballs 1 through to 9 as yours for Saturday's draw.
(Therefore I will have 10 through to 14.)

OPTION B:
You want me to buy £34 worth of Lucky Dip tickets for Saturday's draw.

Please confirm...

By the way, where are you geographically, Silax?

Ada.

[silax]

i'm in spain ada

[silax]

and its bloody cold here as well

[TheGoodGuy]

Silax,

I thought you were...

That should make it fun getting your winnings to you...

Ada.

[silax]

Silax,

Just to make sure....

You want Thunderballs 1 through to 9 as yours for Saturday's draw.
(Therefore I will have 10 through to 14.)

OPTION B:
You want me to buy £34 worth of Lucky Dip tickets for Saturday's draw.

Please confirm...

By the way, where are you geographically, Silax?

Ada.
yep thats right

[vegyjones]

Silax, you can only do one or the other mate! :D

[TheGoodGuy]

Silax,

I will buy the tickets tomorrow (Friday) and post them on this thread tomorrow night at around 22:30, along with your Thunderballs (& my 5 split into their 2 groups.)

Do you have a UK bank account or are you going to need your winnings (if any) in Euros?

Ada.

[vegyjones]

Apparently you can do more than 1...

I need to reread the explanation thread! :doh :laugh

[silax]

if its £250,000 i'll hire a helicopter and you can deliver it :D

[silax]

Apparently you can do more than 1...

I need to reread the explanation thread! :doh :laugh
thats why i'm the forum mastermind and you're still waiting for your balls to drop :wink

[TheGoodGuy]

:D
I'll hold you to that, Silax.

Ada :wink

[vegyjones]

thats why i'm the forum mastermind and you're still waiting for your balls to drop :wink
:laugh Well done to you Silax, I was rooting for you! Honest! :D

[bigcumba]

thats why i'm the forum mastermind and you're still waiting for your balls to drop :wink

:laugh :laugh :laugh

[TheGoodGuy]

Silax,

Here are the 34 Lucky Dip tickets/lines I have bought at your request for Saturday's Thunderball (4th March) draw.
I have put them in Thunderball order.

02 06 15 22 26 01

01 04 20 28 32 10
04 06 16 27 32 10
07 26 28 31 33 10
10 12 18 21 30 10
04 11 20 30 32 11
04 12 14 23 27 12
05 07 12 26 30 12

02 12 19 22 27 13
06 25 28 31 34 13
07 09 14 15 27 13
15 18 25 27 33 13
04 06 13 24 33 14
09 10 17 19 27 14


So...depending on which Thunderball is drawn will determine how much your final prize amount will be...

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 - You will win 100% of the value of the winning lines above.
10 12 14 - You will win 50% of the value of the winning lines above.
11 13 - You lose everything and win nothing.

For your information:

Running the above numbers through the last 5 Thunderball draws, they would have won:

15/02/06: £110
18/02/06: £10
22/02/06: £5
25/02/06: £25
01/03/06: £5

How much will they win on Saturday 4th March?

Wishing you the best of luck...

Ada.

[vegyjones]

Good luck Silax,

and possibly Ada as well! P:D

[silax]

thanks ada good luck

[Iron Chris]

Good luck to you both..:)

[TheGoodGuy]

SATURDAY 4th MARCH THUNDERBALL RESULT

02 08 09 10 11 TB=8

So Silax...
As Thunderball 8 was drawn you win 100% of whatever the winning lines of the 34 tickets are worth.

But how much are they worth?

There are just 2 winning lines:

03 05 06 09 26 08: £5
09 10 11 15 24 08: £20


You have therefore won: £25

Silax,
As you are not resident in the UK I don't know what would be the easiest way to get your prize money to you.
Please Email me at the address below with your ideas/details:

XXXXXXX

Regards

Ada.

[mathare]

Nice one Silax

And well done Ada for running another great competition

[TheGoodGuy]

Well folks,

That's it, pretty much game over for Game 1.

Silax has walked away with £25....it could have been more, I suppose, or it could have been a lot less.

You know how the game works now so.....

Anyone fancy doing it again?.....

If you do...

I will post a Game 2 REGISTER thread on Sunday at mid-day.

All I need is 14 different registrations to start the game to claim ownership of the 14 available Thunderballs.
Pick your number (if you wish) when you register, otherwise I will allocate you an unclaimed number.
First come first served.

If 14 of you register before midnight Tuesday 7th March, then...the game will begin on Wednesday (8th March) evening.

If not...then .....no game.

Ada.

[silax]

tell you what ada why not use the £25 to take the mrs out for sunday dinner on me.
as a thanks for running the competition.
really enjoyed it

[TheGoodGuy]

Silax,
Are you sure?

I'd feel it was money better spent if you took it yourself.
Otherwise, I would prefer it if you nominated a charity that I could donate it to, if you won't accept it yourself.

(She'll just go and spew it all over the pavement on one of her Friday nights out, and blame it on something she ate the day before.)

Nominate a charity if you would be so kind...

Cheers

Ada.

[silax]

ok ada i'll have a think about it

[silax]

ok have thought about it.
i'd like to donate it to one of susans charitys she patron saint of one or two
i'm sure she'll be able to make the transfer as easy as possible for you

[TheGoodGuy]

Susan Wells...our famous authoress

Yes?

Ada.

[silax]

looking forward to the next combination game

[TheGoodGuy]

I'll PM her now...

Consider it done.

Glad to hear you are interested in taking part in Game 2.

Regards

Ada.

[silax]

For the record:

Silax has asked for his £25 prize money to be donated to charity.
Nice gesture.

After consultation with Susanwells it has been decided to give the money to:

CRISIS.. they work with the homeless, (used to be called Crisis at Christmas..) not just providing shelter, food and etc at Christmas and new year but through the year. They have a day centre with classes and courses so that the homeless can start getting qualifications that will lead to jobs and so homes - they run a great cafe which actually works as a catering training centre. They have a Learning Zone with library, IT training etc.. and of course it all provides company, support, etc too.

I will forward the money to them forthwith.

Ada.
