What do you think my chances are...

what do you think my chances are of winning the jackpot at a scratchcard kiosk?

Um.. Probably 1/1000 or more. Think of all the people that play scratchcards (way more then a 1000..) and think of how high the jackpot is.. how long it's been like that.. and so on. So I wouldnt expect to win the jackpot anytime soon.

Very, very low. Don't count on it.

If you dare to try we cannot stop you. Haha but the chances are very low as you can see from high Jackpot. Buying the scratchcard for it is also too expensive an investment. :)

Let's put it this way -- my odds are probably almost as good . . . and I'm not scratching a ticket.

I wouldn't say 1/1000 though. As thats probably the possiblity of getting a scratchcard with the jackpot. :P Perhaps the actual scratching and getting the jackpot would be more like 1/100.

There's a logic I can't follow o_O

He means that your chances of actually getting the scratchcard that has the jackpot (like the Icetravaganza) from the Kiosk instead of getting it by trade or a shop is probably 1/1000, but scratching the jackpot from the Icetravaganza is 1/100 ;)

Did I spell Icetravaganza right? xD

i remember when i got the scratchcard and scratched it and got 2 jackpot lines.. :cry:

probably something like one in five million.

The odds on every chance game in neo are ridiculous, really. They're a waste of money. Just play the flash games.

:lol: Does anybody here have any idea what they're talking about?

The chance is about 1/10. :roll:

The reason it's so high is because you have to use an icetravaganza card to win the jackpot.

Like I said, waste of money. You really are better off playing flash games, you're guaranteed to get at least *something*
