Can anyone say How does the raffle works? (the one in the town center)

1) The more raffle tokens you put in, the higher your winning percentage becomes
2) Your raffle dictates your number, and a random number is generated to determin the winner
I think it works this way: The chance of winning equals the amount of coins you put divided by the total amount of coins in the box.
=> Quantity matters
For example, if you put 40 tokens in, and there are 2000 tokens in the box, then the chance of you being chosen is 2%
Tip: Since the amount of tokens in the box is unknown, I usually put 1 coin only.
Hope this will help!
Regarding the chances and amount, if amount matters like CD87 said, then I am assuming they store the number of tokens you put in as well alongside your user identifier so you may have higher chance to win than others based on the amount of tokens you put in. If the amount doesn't matter, then it just stores your info somewhere until they choose a random user at the end.
Could be entirely different though. And also how they choose a random user is not known to us like CD87 said.
