• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Dream items!

Or we could have a continual... like weekly lottery only you only win half of what is donated and the rest continues to grow in the bank toward a big item... or a game fund...???

Thinking on the legistics...

Also need to contact someone on Staff and see if it would be permitted???

Proceeding to contact staff now???

I know there are random number generators online we could use. Kind of like rolling dice. You pick how many dice to roll, and how many sides each die has. Then it rolls and gives you the outcome. Someone could be assigned to draw the numbers each week (Obviously they couldn't play the numbers! LOL).

Thanks for asking staff Ty! :)

Here's a place where you can see what I mean:
Dice Server:
http://hamete.org/dserver/dices

You can also roll and have the result sent to an email address. That way it would be "verifiable", too! :)

I'd be willing to make a logo in a day or two for the BE Lotto! :) Or whatever the name is!

I think it will happen and soon.... just have to work out some details... I'm on it...

TY
Count me in if you need help, Ty! :) Just Holler!

Here's another good dice roller -- you can set a wide variety of dice & amounts on this one! :)
http://www.irony.com/igroll.html

Just for instance:
I threw 6 20-sided dice and the result was as follows:
Roll 1: 14, [1], 11, 8, 4, 18 (The lowest number is in brackets)

That may work... but it would be more work than I'd like...

I'd like to find an existing program or have one written where I can type in the name and # of chances purchased and have it randomly generate a result...

I plan to *run* the game so I will not be participating...

I'm thinking of 10 blessings for every chance to win... so 100 blessings gets you 10 chances...

Then whatever is collected in a given week...half will go to the winner and the other half into savings...

Still working on it...

Ty

Was thinking about having a contest for what to call it... so maybe hold up on the Logo...;) ;) ;)
