Lol a lottery would be cool. I wouldn’t sag that much though lmao. Millions of gold. But a buy in for a lottery once a month. The ticket would cost 50s or something like that.

It would be an interesting money sink if they ran a lottery like powerball. Set a price, make the jackpot payout dependent on the total tickets sold with lots of smaller prizes. Pay out about 70% of total sales.

A lottery would only work among trusted, well-known people.

In the GW2 community, there are not many trusted names out there other than Dulfy, WoodenPotatoes, Obal & MattVisual.

The latter 3 are strictly youtube, while the former would be a perfect candidate since she already has a fledged out website. The thing is, would Dulfy really be interested in dealing with weekly lottery? You have to manage all the mail and keep track of everything. It can be pretty tedious.

I’m thinking more along the lines of a Black Lion Lottery. Not a player run lottery.

You’re probably right. 100 gems to buy in seems fair and more along the lines of what Anet would probably do if something like this ever happened. Although a gold buy in would be a good gold sink and a lot more players would participate including myself.

Mmm well in that case, I could definitely get behind it. It could be a 50/50 draw where half of it acts as a gold sink.

I don’t get it.

We already have plenty of lotteries. Black Lion Chests, Dye Packs, The Mystic Toilet.

True, but not a legit lottery where you can win gold from other players, i.e like real life lottery.

50/50 is pretty harsh. Slots in NV aren’t allowed below 75%. Many jurisdictions don’t allow below 85%. Black Jack, Roulette, Craps and Baccarat all pay quite high. 70% will do well as a gold sink and not scare away too many players. 50/50 will just scare people away.

Ahhh but think about it.

  1. Player wins lottery
  2. ANet’s Lottery Department sends user 1,000 gold
  3. ANet’s Banning Department terminates player’s account for using gold seller
  4. Player opens appeal ticket
  5. Player waits 3 days
  6. Player posts on forum review request in tickets over three days thread
  7. Gaile waves her Frog Scepter and everything gets fixed
  8. Naaa… too much hassle

Just kidding here folks

Isn’t there already a lottery run by Black Lion?

It’s called the gem shop.

Just add a very small chance of receiving 1000 gold from a Black Lion chest, which you can of course, purchase from the gem shop. Boom done.

The winner could choose between a gold award,or the
right to jump in the mystic toilet,with a tiny chance of
coming out as a precursor,and a great chance of coming
out as crap.
