Yeah a php script for this can be made to do the event fully automated... I'll need to take some time to design the pattern in which the script works and then actually code the script lol...
Anyway, how about it goes like this, you pay 1bill for a ticket and then at the end of the week a random ticket is drawn out of all the tickets, and that ticket holder will get the jackpot gathered from all the tickets' purchases... once the drawn is made all the tickets purchased that week will be erased and new week begins so people can buy new tickets... the more tickets you buy the more chances you have to be selected from the bunch of tickets...
Everything would be stored into the database so no 'keepers' would be needed...
Don't know how long it would take me to code this, also depends on my free time, but it would be doable...

Whether the prize can be accumulated or not depends on the amount of tickets available.
In the system Phoenix suggested the amount of tickets is not set beforehand, but every time someone buys a ticket the amount of tickets increases with 1.
This means that the prize will ALWAYS be won.
The has the advantage that you will never have too little tickets, while with a set amount of tickets you can get a shortage if many people would want to participate.

Event issues/queries resolved..
*Weekly Automatic Event
No keepers needed - Database does everything.
*Every ticket bought adds to the number of entries.. - Always a winner
Example:
Judo buys 1 ticket = 1Bil
Feva buys 8 tickets = 8Bil
PotHed buys 1 ticket = 1Bil
10Bil jackpot,
Feva 80% winning chance
Judo 10% winning chance
PotHed 10% winning chance
So, the more you are willing to gamble the better chance you have of winning
Thank you so much Phoenix.. that is so awesome.
Now all users excited about this event.. An announcement will be made when the Event is activated.. so simply keep checking up on forum

hm....srry feva, dont quite get the system ><
if.....
Judo buys 1 ticket = 1Bil (he chooses number 1)
Feva buys 8 tickets = 8Bil (you choose number 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)
PotHed buys 1 ticket = 1Bil (he chooses number 10)
then, guys, what if the jackpot number is....11 >< ?? Then, who gets the jackpot ><?? (hm...srry just dont quite understand the system yet ><)
one more thing, personally i think that there "shouldnt" always be a winner every week. I think that the accumulation of "big" zen will get more people excited

Numbers only get added when someone buys a ticket.
the system is automatic.
So you probably don't even choose a number, it is assigned to you..
It is basically if you pay for tickets.. then write your name on however many you bought, then put them in a hat..
then someone draws from a hat ^_^
Hope you can understand now
