Hey folks!

Just yesterday, we posted a quick little contest to ask YOU what you would do if you won this week's YoLotto jackpots, and BOY did you answer.

After having only been open for just over 24 hours, the contest had over 1,500 participants! That is incredible!

Before we get into it, we wanted to mention that this contest was a perfect example of how lucky we are to have such a wonderful community. So many of you had said that part (if not most) of your winnings would be used to help another player, and this kind of generosity reminds us exactly why we do what we do. If you have any stories of sharing your YoLotto winnings with someone else, please share your story - lets keep this good feels train a rollin'!

Throughout the day and just after this contest closed, we've had some Vikings go through your answers, and picked out some of our favorites! This isn't to say they are the best or the worst, but certainly ones that made us laugh or warmed our hearts. Seriously, if we could, we would have hundreds of winners.



Because so many of you had participated, we wanted to DOUBLE the amount of winners. So, without further ado (and in no particular order), here are our ten favorite answers!

1."I'll scream and shout and let it all out"
2.take a picture and post it
3.then tbh that's a lot of money I would probably just buy the things "I need"
4.i am pretty sure I'll waste it in clothes
5.then when I have like 500k left I would say "OOOO Wish we could turn back timeee to the good old days "

Its been three years since we have seen them other than face time. Their mom takes care of them on her own and she cannot afford to spend extra on yo cash and coins. So I buy coins and yo cash to share with them when I can.So it would be a wonderful present for all of us. Thank you for doing things like this.
Sincerely ,Gigi

Yo-get a car and Yo-get a car and Yo-get a car, Every Yo-friend gets a car

I would buy collectables, a home, and a vehicle for my long time YoFriends; whom I met on Yo and have stayed connected with for over 6 years. I would buy a stock of gifts to be used in Yo-Contests so that there would be winners everyday because YoWorld is a happy place chocked full of fond memories and everyone here is a Yo-Neighbor and a Friend for Life. I would also buy items I have wanted for a long time and couldn't get when they were originally out as well as collectables I just love
Love to all my Yo-Friends and thank you Big Viking Games

Louielle RoseWood (145428244) wrote:If I had the chance to win 78M OR/AND 7000YC, I would split the coins/yocash into few parts. I would use that 1/3 to buy some new furniture for my new house since Christmas is coming! Another 1/3 for any wearables I've been saving for. And the other 1/3 for giveaways on my page or giving them out to the newer/unfortunate players. Because I was once a 'newbie' and I've gotten the help i needed so its only fair if I 'pay it forward'. Thank you. <3

We go to events together, help each other to find that "perfect item" to finish a room, etc etc. Yep, give half to my twinnie.

Black Orchid (137169083) wrote:If I had a million YoCoins, I would put it back into my personal styling business, Yo Style Therapy. Currently, I use my own coins and Yocash to buy new and discontinued clothing items and sell them to players at a discounted price. For instance, a new hair that would normally go in AH for 100K-250K might be sold for 60K at Yo Style Therapy. The business sprouted from a conversation I had with a new player, who explained their frustrations of not being able to purchase items in their likeness such as Hairs, Eyes, and even clothes. This experience was described on my FB Page Black Orchid Yo Fashion Blog. As a player for many years, I just want to do all I can to make the game more enjoyable for everyone. I think we already face enough real life judgement from others outside of the game, and come to YoWorld for a temporary escape from this negativity. I defenitley will be going after that 78 million Jackpot as well, to make an even bigger impact on the YoCommunity! Wish me luck in the Big Pot guys! Thank you for this opportunity! I <3 YW!

Klisma Dove (8654470) wrote:When I first started out on YoWorld, it was the kindness of a random stranger that really got me hooked on the game. This girl (i don't remember her name) basically surprised gifted me a few random items while I was roaming around the streets of YoWorld trying to figure out what I was doing. That was years ago now, but I still like to continue that tradition. I have a ton of houses and I'm always buying the latest furniture, but the funnest thing for me is walking around the streets of YoWorld and gifting random strangers. Typically, I just ask them "if you could have anything out of the stores, what would it be?" and then I add them, find that item, and gift it to them. With the jackpot money, I would do even more of that. Of course I would spend a little on myself, but sometimes giving is the greatest gift.

Thank you all again for participating! We had a lot of first-time Forumers come visit, and it was great to see so many new faces!

We hope to see you around in the future; and if you ever run into us in YoWorld don't be afraid to say hi!
