2: At the end of each week, a random number is chosen.

Honestly, the irresponsible type of person who is prone to gambling is A: probably at the duel arena doing that right now anyways and B: has every right to do so. So if tickets are 500k each, then a player could only buy two tickets a week. The number of tickets could be limited to about 1m maximum spent per player per week.

Less gold would be destroyed that way and it might be less annoying to loyal lottery players.īecause so many people are worried about gamblers quitting the game. Another way to fix this hypothetical problem would be to increase the % of the pot that the winner receives.

However, if this somehow took too much gold out of the economy (as if that would ever happen) then a limit to the number of tickets could then be put in place (both on each player and the total number sold for the week). Normally, there should be no limit to the number of tickets a player can buy. It should say something like 'The winner will receive x% of the gold put into the lottery which is currently XXX,XXX,XXX GP. The amount of gold the winner shall receive should be displayed wherever tickets are sold. This, in my mind, is a nice compromise between being affordable enough for players to try their luck (possibly with more then one ticket) and expensive enough to remove quite a bit of gold from the economy (more about that in a bit). Tickets should cost around 500,000 gold each. Players would probably want to see what number(s) they were randomly assigned and the winning number at the end of each week. This should just assign a random, unique number to the player who buys the 'ticket' instead of being an actual in-game item.

1: Players pay a certain amount of gold for a lottery ticket.

This could also be a pretty good way to remove gold from the economy. This would add excitement to the game and encourage players to play at least once a week. This idea has probably been tossed out a thousand times, so putting it out there once more shouldn't hurt anything.
