Lottery

[Egyptian Gods]

We should have a lotto draw every friday for example we have numbers in the week that we chose from the market menu the at the end of the week the winner will be announced that winner could get a bounus of like a cwadrillion naq (1000trillion naq) to help them grow in power, also the would get two days worth of ppt to be able to spend there bonuss without losing it as easy. Finally if there are no winner one week that money would roll over into the money avilable in the market naq funds.

More explanation

For thouse who dont get this. This is my deatiled plan

On the market page we could a a square cube to punch in our numbers like the real lotto or we can have a lucky dip then on friday the admins will acnounce the winner and the winner will get a big bonus of 1000trillion naq ie which would be something like $/£8mil in the real world but seem as we all have high income it would have to be a high price like that in naq. And as i said the winner would get 2 day of PPT so the dont get attacked for there winnings!

too powerful... way too powerful...

also, it is far too chaotic... and chaotic stuff is the realm of chaosGateWars, not main...

what is needed is stuff that adds strategy to this game, not things that remove strategy...

what if the price was 2-8trillion

[danielv]

Just put in place a lottery.
price of ticket is 10 bill
1 ticket per player

everybody can see how much ticket have been bought.
also, you can choose your ticket ( who is a number between 1 to 999 )

they can be 1 to more winner.
if their is multiwinner, the price is divided by all winner.

all winner will get their name posted on a page ( updated every round )

could be more great than insert 1000 trill in the game.

Too much coding involved. I'd rather see improvements to the game over something like this.

Many play run lotteries and compotions go on.

[grimgor]

also would increase mutis

so no

unless it cost like 20B+ a ticket

Lotteries have been suggested before, and many players run/have run their own.

I don't think it needs to be an actual aspect of the game, but if players want to run them, fine.

[danielv]

the problem with those out of the game, hey aren't really safe.

I can say number 101 is winner, and number 101 is my friend...

including it in the game will make it safe, and will allow small planer who win to have a little boost.

cheers

ROFL!

But is a lottery integral to a war game? And do we really want Jason spending his time adding it when there are other better ideas that could be added and other things that need fixing?

Answer: No.

You're right - the other lotteries aren't 100% safe - although there have been a few conducted by certain well known and respected people that have worked. But just because they aren't 100% safe doesn't mean that we should have an in-game one. And there's no gurantee that a smaller player would win!

Has everybody lost the point of the game?

[Egyptian Gods]

Id just like to make a point obout the coding is the game logg in code changes every half hour then making the code for the lottery shouldnt be a problem at all should it just depends on the winnings i mean a coulpe of trillion can help a lot of people abviously the ones who earn trillions daily wont bother im just thinking of people who relally need naq

[Wolf359]

Hmmm - the main objection still being that it is irrelevant to a war game.

And, as mentioned it has been suggested many times before, and never looked even half likely to be implemented.

There is a section for lotteries/competitions in the forum, with some currently active topics...

[Egyptian Gods]

Im just saying it can help a lot of people

[Egyptian Gods]

instead of costing 20billion what if a ticket cost 3 market turns there is still 1 in 20thousand chance of winning the price any way

[dead solid]

y is this still going... it would take too much time to do, other better enhancements could be made instead of a lottery that i personally wouldnt bother entering, id rather spend my naq on say building my ms then giving it away to someone else...
