Quick heads up for anyone who's been sitting on this. Rockstar's reminder went out today that the lottery for GTA 6: The Festival closes at 4 p.m. ET. If you were planning to get in, that's the cutoff.

Signing up requires an active dicefm account, so if yours is dormant or you never made one, sort that before the clock runs out. No account, no entry.

What happens after the deadline

Winners get picked at random and contacted with access codes by 7 p.m. ET. So there's a three hour window between the lottery closing and codes going out. Keep an eye on whatever email or account you registered with.

Each code is good for two tickets. That's it. Two per code, so if you're rolling with a bigger group than that, you're going to need more than one winner in the crew.

My two cents

Random selection means there's nothing clever to do here. No strategy, no timing trick, no refreshing the page at the right second. Either your name comes out or it doesn't. I've seen people stressing about the exact minute they entered like it matters. It doesn't.

The part I'd actually be careful about is the account requirement. Anyone who waited until the last hour to sign up for dicefm is asking for trouble. Verify it's active now, not at 3:55.

For the ones who miss out

No code by 7 p.m. means you're watching from home like the rest of us. Still sucks, but at least you'll know by tonight instead of waiting around all week wondering.


Anyone here actually got a dicefm account already, or are we all scrambling to make one in the next few hours?
