    Suggestion:MEGA Lottery

    Reason:Will take A LOT of money out of the economy :)

    Any Other Information:Every month or so a MEGA lottery could be arranged,
    my suggestion is that tickets will cost $300 and 50% will be deducted as tax. As
    seen in the last about 3 day long lotto.... pretty much 4 million was in the pot...
    imagine the tax that would make! money on ECC will deflate and one lucky person
    shall be rich :)

    [Basically whenever someone buys a ticket, 5 minutes are added]
    Link To This Plugin:
    Already exists, lotto is editable.
    It was done before with dwite12 :3

    Inunderstand money is getting a bit ot of hand, but this.... You are saying that everyone pays their money , only to have half disappear, and then have one winner? This woudl not only bankrupt people, but it would leave behind 1 person with all the remaining money! -1

    the lottery is meant to be there for rich players that want to spend a lot of money. although every once in a while it gives a person free ranks, it's just meant to be a fun plugin, not something you rely 100% on for your income.

    It's all a choice, nobody is forced to play in that lotto.

    Could you please provide arguments to base your disagreement on?

    This suggestion is not implying anything of the sort, he's simply suggesting what has been done before, but at a regular interval.



    I half-agree with this suggestion.
    I do agree that the MEGA lotto should happen at a specified interval, but I think one month is too short for a lottery of such a proportion, I would suggest once every 2-3 months.

    Other then the fact this is will allow people to cheat past kuke's leader-boards (1 milion could get you 3,333 tikets, while in a regular lotto it would only get you 1k tickets), this would also have such a heavy tax, people might end up losing money if they bought too many tickets. And believe me, they would have money to buy TONS AND TONS of tickets.

    People losing money is a good thing, that is the purpose of the lotto.
    As for kuke's leader-board, it is a bit of fun, not an important part of the server.
    I agree with kuke, suggest if awesome, just longer time period.

    It was just my suggestion of stopping the rapidly inflating Ecodollar :)
    Since the end of Summer of 2012, we have gained about 40 million ECO$! That's about 6 million dollars per month!
    if we continue at this rate, we will surely break 2 million. Also 300$ was just a suggestion to get money out of the economy and you WILL make money if you win xD pretty much everybody will buy X>1 Tickets :)

    I think you mean 200 million. And, how do you find out the total money in the economy?

    There is currently about 150 million in the economy according to him.
