    Hello. For all you high rollers I am suggesting a high roller lotto event!

    This can be played on the test server and kinda be like what we did for the NFL Season. You would sign up on the forums like we did for sportsbook lets say (500k) and you would get 500k on the test server. The goal would be to win everyone elses money who entered the pot. And the winner of the entire event (whoever still has money left) would receive the total amount of money on the MAIN Server. You would be able to buy multiple entries as well just like we had done in the old sportsbook event.

    For example:
    @Gambler_ bought 2 entries so he would pay 1,000,000 to andrewkm and andrew would give him 1,000,000 on the test server.
    @xX3PICREBELXx bought 1 entry for 500k so he would get 500k on the test server.
    @matrix_rep bought 5 entries for 2.5 million he would get 2.5 million on the test server.

    If @matrix_rep successfully made the other two broke, however many lottos it took, he would receive 4 million back on the main server.


    Now there can be a tax on the final prize... but there shouldn't be taxes during the actual individual lottos.

    Reason
    Someone could simply not buy lotto or buy 1 ticket until every other players money was eaten away by taxes.

    If there would simply be a tax on the final pot... then there would be no advantage in buying small tickets to have others lose money to tax AND it would make the event run quicker. So a tax of 10% on the final pot would give @matrix_rep 3.6 million back on the main server.


    I truly believe many people would joint his event and it would be a lot of fun if ran correctly :D, if users end up not showing up a simple refund of their money would occur.

    There'd need to be a time limit, otherwise some people would just hold their money making it impossible to run out. It would also probably need to be over 1 hour or so on a predetermined day so it actually gets done due to time zones and such. Seems cool just seems a bit hard to implement properly and effectively
