New! The $$$ House Lotto!!

Post by fooka03 »

Located at our rune tower on moonglow, players can now buy lotto tickets from Platon. Of course by tickets I mean a locked box :P. Inside each box there is 70 cooked fish as a consolation prize. Of course the winning box contains a deed for a small house! We will hopefully be restocking this vendor on a bi-weekly basis regardless of if there is a winner or not but of course it will be more often if we sell lots of boxes! So come on by and buy! Each ticket is 1500 gold and proceeds benefit future $$$ public events!

Important info:

All available tickets are visible on the vendor. We do not stack boxes and bury the winning ticket under layers of crap. There is exactly one winning box which contains 100 cooked fish and one small house deed (the fish is so the boxes are too heavy to steal.) All losing boxes contain 110 cooked fish to ensure that every box weighs exactly the same. To obtain the prize either go to a safe, private place (preferably a house you own or are friended to) and use an axe on the box. Or, if you have a character with the lockpicking skill you can attempt to pick the box. Of course the boxes were made by a gm tinker so it might be a bit difficult :lol:

Good luck to everyone! Stay tuned for updates and different prizes in the future!

Amazing the amount of people who want to cheat after the last save.

$$$ WILL be policing this the best they can and kicking out anyone wanting to cheat and buy boxes while in last save. Thus allowing them to get the box once server is up if they find it.

Anyone caught repeatedly doing this day in day out will be on the ban list very quickly.

Play fair, and don't cheat.

There are still boxes left, and one of them might be the winner! So stop by and buy! The lotto ends this week if there's a winner or not!

Of course after a day of downtime the lotto will be back up with a new drawing!

Thank you to all who participated in our first lotto! And congrats to the winner! Due to the overwhelming popularity This will definitely be made into a weekly occurrence.

I'm also proud to announce that for certain holidays we will hold special lottos for larger house deeds! Stay tuned for details.

Hello out there SecondAge! I'm proud to announce our 2nd Lotto has been launched! Same as before, buy a box, axe it, and hope you get the prize! 1500g per 'ticket'

We're doing something new this time though, there's a 2nd prize instead of just the house deed! While not as nice as a new house it's still something worth more than the price of the ticket! Good luck to everyone!

As mentioned before, anyone entering the vendor room after the last save will be BANNED! No exceptions! We will not tolerate cheaters.

There's still lots of boxes left on the vendor meaning there's a very large chance that the winner is still out there!
