The block in which the above post is included has a merkle root of f40b1b4fc57aa46b019342cd7f922ade0425c4df.
The last two digits of this root are used to determine if there is a winner. Ending in 0 gives an upvote and ending in 00 means the jackpot was cracked. The remaining digits determine which ticket wins. To do this we compute the residual after dividing the root by the number of virtual tickets. In this case this would be:
f40b1b4fc57aa46b019342cd7f922ade0425c4 = 5442349357245009903233154874768823667384395204 in base 10. The residual after dividing by the number of shares (914) is 750. Therefore ticket number 750 would win.

This time the root does not end in 0 and thus there is no winner in this drawing. The post will be upvoted to increase the jackpot
