LOL DB, so here is the jist...
A Waffle is really a Raffle, but Raffle is a bad word on FB and will get you shut down, basically unsanctioned gambling and the house isn't getting their cut. So if you look you will see there are literally thousands of waffle sites, everything from womens clothes, purses and shoes to fishing camping firearms and all the way to ours which caters to RC enthusiasts. It is essentially an office pool among friends of the RC community, we buy a spot or more to compete for a prize in a live random drawing, most days you help defray the cost of other people's dream items, but sometimes they defray the cost of yours... because you won! If you are smart, like I try to be, you only get a spot or 2, and only on things you really want or need, and sometimes you make out big. I personally have spent probably $1000 trying to hit, and am currently up about $2000 ($3000 worth of top of the line gear I would have killed for, but didn't have too) so you could say I am lucky.
The admins take a % to run, monitor, and payout the prizes and can run from 5 or 10 to 20% or more. Currently I have won...
Aomway Commanders
Fatshark HD3 Core's
3 sets of Hypetrains
This list goes on for quite a while so I won't bore you too much, but that is the basics, an online office pool that looks a lot like gambling without Uncle Sam and the usual greedy ******** getting anything at all... somehow, that makes me smile.
Questions?
