Sweet they actually added it.

Put a limit on how many someone can buy. A player told me he had a 75% chance on the Lottery when it had a jackpot of 120,000$. Everyone else had practically none, which isn't fair. So eventually, everyone else started buying more and more tickets to even it out, but of course, the 75% guy bought more. In the end, everyone was broke. Even the 75% guy. The only rich person was going to be the person who will win.

Where is the Tashkin we know and love?

-When I was discussing about proposing to other people didn't work, and I could propose to my husband.

the lottery is all luck. You could buy 99% of the tickets and still lose a ton of money, but most likely you get small gain.

You could buy 0.05% of the tickets, and win huge, but chances are you won't win.

I choose to abstain from luck based activities such as this because they are too stressful.

I fail to see an issue.

What Skill said is true. Just because a player buy a bunch of tickets and gets a higher odd percentage doesn't mean that they will win. This is entirely based on luck. I am going to make a Poll shortly on the time frame for the event.

Merged these three threads together. No reason to have multiple threads when all questions can be asked in one that's already made.

There is no such thing as luck. Only chance. Players who buy more tickets have a higher chance of getting the jackpot, which can go up to $200,000.

Chance is a synonym for luck... which means there is such a thing as luck. Just because you have a higher "chance" at winning does not mean you will win.

But it's more likely. Although I see your point, with as long as someone else buys a ticket they don't have a certain win.
