okay so the title preety much sais it all i was thinking worldscape could have a lottery could be once a week or once every month thats for you to decide it could even be a 1 time thing what ever suits you
Reward system:
The amount of money that was spent to buy lottery tickets is the jackpot
Example:
80 people bought tickets at 2k ea so you can win 160k im not sure exactly if this is what you guys wanted but correct me please you didnt make it clear enough what the reward system was
Buying the tickets:
i was thinking each player could buy 1 ticket and i don't want the lottery to ruin the economy so tickets cant be cheap so i was thinking tickets should cost around 2k ea or higher depending on what you guys think
Extra information on how it might work:
the rest of it is preety similar to the lottery in real life make the draw completely random um.. thats about it
What do you think?
Okay.. so first off thanks for taking up time to post and help perfect the idea ive read your comments and it seems as tho you want it so that you can only but 1 ticket its completely random so sort of like put a name out of a hat i guess anywayy i guess since the majority want it its best to have it so ive preety much changed the rules best i can to fit the NEW rules and yeah.. so if you have any further suggestion you want to make go ahead no such thing as a bad idea
good idea but where you can buy it??? maybe when you do ::lotery

good idea and thanks for the comment :D
First, take out the yellow text. It's annoying and almost impossible to read. Second, this has a one in a trillion chance of happening. You'd have a better chance at winning the actual lottery. It'd ruin the economy here. We aren't going to turn 1k into 120k like that. This would've been a sensible suggestion in classic, but not in Blitz.
Ryan won't add something stupid like this to the Legendry Blitz.
Honestly the lottery should be for higher levels of players that have money to spend..
Tickets should be 1m-2m each but considering the number of active players now.. they should be 5k-20k each.
Personally, I see nothing wrong with this idea. We have it in real life and it doesn't f*ck up the economy.
Also - who said there would be a winning ticket every week? Decent suggestion, and it'd be a pretty unique feature for a private server.
Thank you for changing the color, but I still don't support it.
I agree with dug ::)
Note: I changed the part where it sais it should be weekly :-X)
Do not support, this has no use whatsoever.

Opinions are like assholes; everyone has them. It's honestly Ryan's and/or Jeremy's opinions that count, not ours, so it doesn't matter if you support it or not.
False.
Ryan and Jeremy do things based on what's good for the community AND what we want.
They don't disregard us all-together. That would be pretty stupid.
So our opinions DO matter.
@topic- I don't really think it's a good idea.
At least, not right now.
OH! THE GAUNTLET HAS BEEN THROWN DOWN! How do you come back from a whuppin' like that, Shadows?
Thanks mute, your are absolutely right!

Simple, use past experience based off your own or others that you have picked up upon, which in turn should be worded in such a way that it is read as an comeback.
Wait, what now?

Nick, Your devolving back into a troll, don't make me take action against you.
What did I do? I was just backing up Jack and Caponer.
Theres lottery in other server..
Would it be copying?
I'm Pretty sure no since the "other server" could have copyrighted it from someone else.. right?
Heaps of servers have it, So it wouldn't be coping.

It doesn't f*ck up the economy because the money is already there, so if a player made his own lottery on the forums but have it to give the cash to them in-game then no, it wouldn't screw the economy.
IT IS SCREWING IT UP>.< damnit learn to believe someone...
If done incorrectly, it could. (Such as multiplying the money to make money that wasn't there before. Or allowing a shit-ton of ticket purchases, making it so that the rich can buy as many tickets as they want and almost gaurantee that they'll win because of the small population.) But this can be easily controlled, allowing it to be just fine.
However, unknowed, what are your reasons as to why it wouldn't be screwing up the economy?
You can't just yell at someone and not say why.
Please elaborate, oh wise one.

Please elaborate on how no money is coming into the game is screwing up the economy. (If you was replying to me).
Well I am starting to believe in this a bit after reading a post prior to mine. I support that if people put money into a pot an we pull numbers for the win. It'd be a tough go, but if we act civil then we can do it.

True and Ryan\Jeremy\Danny could manage it through a random picker such as bellow:

I support that idea.
Quote from: Killer Panda on January 20, 2011, 08:09:10 PM
I support that idea.
I also support this idea, I want it to be like this.
I do see that some people would resist from paying for it though..

It's like gambling of course people would resist, plus there should be some extra way for people to gain money.
Like slots? I'm up for it... Let's just build a casino, eh? How about for construction we make it so we can make casinos and machines and tables?
Black Jack going to be in?!?!?!?!!? :o
How did you get Black Jack from lottery? ::)
I like the idea, the system isn't to bad. It gives people something to do when they're bored.
I was joking about all the other things. ::)
Damnit, I wanted to Black Jack in the new WS casino... :'(
So, now we know People's opinions in a lottery...
GREAT IDEA!
I support that the second idea, not the original one.
Wait, the Casino idea? That would be even cooler! Like make some big fancy area like the Camelot Castle a big ass casino!
How will Ryan be able to code that? It'd be really hard...
I don't know.. He's Ryan.
