    Suggestion: Users should be able to create their own private lotteries and invite players.

    Reason: Private lotteries would be helpful so people can 1v1 other players in lotteries without the possibility of anyone else interfering. The private lotteries could be created with a command such as /lot create, and to add people to the lottery /lot add [player name]. This would be a nice, fun little addition to the game and I don't see it doing any harm.

    Any Other Information: If people are going to -1, please include a reason why you did so.

    probably would create a lot more lagg with the lottery then running so many lotteries with different people in each one. RyanJF1 would you agree?

    It is a great idea, however having the lottery as a gambling plugin is already pushing our limit, and having multiple small lotto's running could just make this to much for some of our younger players to handle, aswell as I rather enjoy big lottos more than the small ones. I like you idea, but I dont think that at this time its the right thing to add.

    I think any addition will add lag to the server, but I don't think it will add much with this one. Though, I don't really see the need for it. The server-wide lottery is fine the way it is.

    BigAl512, money is put in by users, it functions the same as the normal lottery, only it is private.

    Not only this would cause lag, but there would probably be tons of ways to glitch it.

    Never have I seen you play lotto.

    Anyway, -1, simply because the lotto we have now is fine, I do like the idea though.

    -1

    If you'd like to do a 1v1 just make a bet and use a random number generator generating the #1 and 2 :)
    also this would be somewhat pointless because it would not have much economical benefit and it would not be widely used on ECC because if you want to compete with your friends in a 1v1 you lose 30% of what you both put in.
