3 Rounds To Pick 3 Winners
To ensure the pure randomness, we decided to use 3 rounds to pick each winner. Each round consists of 4 additional rounds. Anyone who ranks at top after randomizing the list four times is the winner.
In the 1st round, we picked the first winner by putting all the lottery ticket IDs into their given box and randomized that list 4 times (additional 4 rounds) to get the first winner's ticket ID.
The ticket ID of the first place winner is W18R5TC1 and his steemit name is 
In the 2nd round, we removed all the ticket IDs of the first place winner as he already won the first place, and randomized the list 4 times to pick the second place winner.
The ticket ID of the second place winner was W18R1TC5 and his steemit name is 
In the 3rd round, we removed all the ticket IDs of the first place winner and the second place winner as they already won the prizes, and randomized the list 4 times to pick the third place winner.
The ticket ID of the third place winner is W18R6TC1 and his steemit name is

How to win the lottery?
In case you're wondering how to win, it's quite simple. Play and score as much XP as you can and do your best to rank in the Top 3 of the leaderboards to get multiple lottery tickets which will increase your chances of winning. The player who ranks 1st gets 7 tickets from the total of 30 tickets which means his chance will be a bit higher than others.
Does it mean that I can't win the lottery if I don't rank in the Top 3?
Not at all. The purpose of this lottery is to give an equal chance to every participant to win. Since everything is random, it is quite possible that Top 3 players won't be able to win anything. Everything is purely random and fair-enough for all the participants. Make no mistake, we pick three winners in total, so the winner could be you.
