The method · VERITY-1
How the result is made
commitment = SHA256(seed) published at launch
entries_hash = SHA256("VERITY-1|entries|{ref}\n" + "{ticket}|{owner}" lines, sorted by ticket)
draw_seed = HMAC_SHA256(seed, "VERITY-1|draw|{ref}|{entries_hash}|{beacon}")
for winner p = 1..k, counter c = 0, 1, 2 …
x = first 12 hex chars of HMAC_SHA256(draw_seed, "pick|{p}|{c}") as an integer
if x < floor(2^48 / n) * n: winner = entries[x mod n]; remove it; next p
instant wins: key = HMAC_SHA256(seed, "VERITY-1|instant|{ref}")
slot s, attempt a: ticket = 1 + sample(key, "slot|{s}|{a}", max_tickets), skipping repeats
table_hash = SHA256("VERITY-1|instant-table|{ref}\n" + "{ticket}|{prize}" lines)Owners appear only as anonymous tags. Plates are partly hidden to protect winners’ privacy.
