Greg,
You are absolutely right.
How many tickets could be sold for $1000.00 each even if you had a 1 in a 100 chance?

People will pay $100.00 for groups of 5 tix for 5 chances, before they will pay $100.00 for one, even if it is the same odds. having 5 tix makes them feel like they are getting more.

That is why, in Las Vegas you will see someone playing 5 coins at Quarter Slots, before they will play the dollar machines.
DV has had enough experience at this by now, I am sure a happy medium will be reached to make it appealing to MANY.

If it was left up to me, I say we sell one winning ticket to me and let it go at that. I wouldn't care if the ticket was $50,000.

This will be fun.
