in my opinion i think the lottery is just fine every 15 minutes money is taken out of the economy which is good i guess and players would barely make money if lotto was every hour think about so many people play lotto like myself i always have my clock set for 14 minutes 2 play if it was a hour i wouldn't be able to make money cause the lotteries would be huge due to the time it would have to build up money

 

D4NTE, Great idea! But i like the lotto just the way it is :)

 

i think hardcore lotto players would be upset if this happened 15 minutes a great time the tax is fine and either way the lotto could never be a primary money maker because everyone loses there is one person that has played lotto and hasnt lost i make money from lot every day and guess what i lose it so i go mine to make my money again and play lotto again and try 2 get my luck on :)

 

*puts on ikes voice* "Back in my day!, lotto was an hour long!"

 

"puts on Harry's voice"

"puts phiphiphi voice back on" 10 minute lottos with cheap tickets!

 

No one can really make money off lotto ask all the big lotto players they lose money, someone one tickets them. xX3PICREBELXx for example has recorded over 1 mil loss in lottery. Sooner lotteries are also great for the server as they take more money from tax and steal more from the rich.

 

Stop telling everyone!!!

 

And the Anti-Snipe thing. .-.

I personally like 15 minute lotteries. Things move along a lot quicker.

 

Yea, agreed : P

 

Do you understand probability everyone should lose tax on the lotto overall. The people who make money are lucky and the people who lose money are unlucky but in the end lotto takes money from the economy. Why would andrewkm make it so less money is taken out of the economy, that would just lead to inflation. The only people to make money off lotto are the lucky people who win massive lottos with small amount of tickets such as dwite12 and zardgyer. The more lottos the more money out the economy andrewkm doesn't really care who it goes to. If you don't want to lose don't play.
Also if you make lotto every hour it will just mean larger lottos where people can make more money, in no way will that stop people sniping every lotto.
You have no proof about the earning money, many people such as xX3PICREBELXx net profit for lot is at least $-1,000,000. You assume people make money because they win 5 lots in a row but they only make 5k of each of those then if someone 1 tickets them they lose 30k meaning they lose money. I am sure everyone agrees lotto loses you money because there is not skill only probability, and the probability shows everyone should lose money because of tax.

 

Andrew should implement that you can not buy lotto tickets the last minute. So you would only be able to buy during 14 min. this will reduce lag and snipe.

Lag will be reduced because you don't get a bazilion lotto notifictions due to snipers. Also I wish the lotto tickets would be only 100$ so that builders can join more easy.

P.S.
No this is not for myself, I quit the lottery after I lost 100K two times in a row.

 

Lotto is a money drain for the rich, sniping is important to take all the money otherwise you wouldn't get 1 mil lottos. Also if everyone knew it stopped you buying at 14 min they would just snipe then...
Lotto is a bad thing why make it more accessible to the poor, so they can lose more money. No one wins at lotto it is like betting if some people win someone else has to lose. Everyone knows lotto is on the server as a way to take money out the economy why would he make it drain less money just so the poor can buy tickets. If you can't afford a ticket don't play simply.
