Re: Lottery

I have no idea why such a high percentage is "taxed" but one major reason I'd assume is to keep it fair for everyone. If every naq that you put in could be won back then you could have someone "buy" the pot by buying so many tickets that they could almost not lose.

;) Clever chap. Works 'somewhat' the same in casino's.

By the way, when you have 1T exactly out, it will not buy the ticket, but it will say it did. Take out 1 more Naq, and it buys the ticket properly, and leave you with 1 Naq. (Will be fixed soon.) :)

It is a technical impossibility that it would have taken your Naq if you did not have enough (or if you had the 1,000,000,000,000 out). The code simply would not allow it.

As for trying it 300 times.. I hold you in too high esteem to believe that. ;)
