Lottery is for the rich and the rich can waste as much money as they want.

 

My point still stands, generally the rich people play and win the most lotteries.

 

That's their choice, they decide to waste their money.

 

lol lotto is fun even if i lose

 

well dont play i make money play lotto win make more money lose it the next day then i repeat so im on and off rich so i have fun either way

 

It's fun for them, you can't please everyone. You should only play when you can afford to lose, losing when you can't afford it is what's ruining the fun. The solution is to simply not play the lotto.

 

If you don't like loosing money dont play lotto, jut like if you don't like dying dont go into pvp

 

Are you *brushes hair with hand and corrects bow tie* referring to anyone in particular?

 

First of all I agree with what like said about if you can't afford to loose dont play. Second lotto is all about tacti. I started off yesterday with 17k in my bal from farming, played lotto all day (tactfully) and ended up with well over a mil

 

Hello,

Lottery is here for 2 purposes. 1) Its a money sink. 2) Its something the rich can play with and the poor can become hopeful with.

The money sink aka the 15% tax is helpful for the economy because it lowers the chance of inflation. Just yesterday I watched Tommy_T lose 80,000 by winning the lottery. That is $80,000 that wouldn't have normally left the economy considering he doesn't buy towns/town features anymore. Now that money is out of the economy because he decided to lotto. :D

Secondly, this is a richman's game. The fact is, although sometimes not true, the rich generally win. Why? Cause they just toss money at problems, why would lotto be different?

Now as for why someone would waste insane amount of money to lottery tax. Some of them, like HarryHaz1, are trying for what is called LuckyLotto. Lucky lotto requires you win a pot of 50k or higher 7 times in a row.

Basically, this is the money waster of the server and limitting how much money a person can waste on a system designed to waste money is just silly.

Originally lottery was added for the rich, and Andrew still encourages the rich to play. If you have ever seen one of Andrew's crazy lotto nights, you'd see it.

As well, in the past, we had ticket limits; they were constantly raised higher and higher until there was no limit. Far as I could tell, it was based on user demand. Majority of users did not want a ticket limit.
