Assuming that all 2500 players pressed the button to try and enter.
50 get in
2 winners
Probability for one person to win assuming two people win prizes:
P(A and B)=P(A)*P(B|A)
P(get in and win)=P(get in)*P(win)=(50/2500)(2/50)=1/1250=0.08% chance
Probability to have all four get in:
P(X)=(aCx*n-aCr-x)/nCr=(4C4*2496C46)/2500C50=undetermined, indicating that the probability for all 4 of the guild members to get into chance is virtually 0.
E(x)=ra/n=50*4/2500=0.08 is the expected number of people from the four in the guild to get into chance.

taking the extreme case of 2500 people looking for a warper:
the probability to win the prize assuming there are two winners is 8%, not 0.08%, although I assume thats a type
the probability of 4 specific people getting in an event is approximately 0.0000006%
the probability of the two people that won the event being out of those 4 is 0.64%
the probability of 4 specific people getting in an event and 2 of those winning is 0.0000000000384%
but who counts
