At the beginning of June 2004 iGUK launched their daily FFA50 Lotto competitions. Five nights a week you can play in mini-tournaments where (using the lotto ticket system) the winner of each receives a nice crisp £50. Some of these competitions have more on offer; their individual tournament pages give details on prizes available on each FFA50 night.
All gamers can visit Gamesuite and put their skills to the test with no extra entry fee required. Players battle it out online against other centres from all around the UK . These tournaments are set to run indefinitely meaning over the course of the year you could win over £20,000.
The FFA50 Frag Lotto is a marked departure from normal tournaments that reward only the very elite, and offer no excitement to the casual player. Rather than basing all prizes on a standard knockout bracket, players in a FFA50 Lotto tournament earn tickets. The number of tickets each player earns is based on how well they do in their games. While the very best players earn larger numbers of tickets for doing well in the nightly competition, players who don't do so well also earn a smaller number of tickets based on their performance. These tickets are all placed into the virtual tombola at the end of each FFA50 night, and the cash along with other sponsored prizes are awarded by tickets drawn from the ticket pool. This means that while the best players earned a better chance in the draw, even the worst player in the whole tournament has a chance of winning.
