I'm not too sure if this was previously put into the game but I think as a way to earn coins, we should have a YoLottery.. (It also takes coins away from the game as much as it puts in..)

A ticket costs maybe.. 2000, 20,000 or a something to that effect and you're given a set of numbers.. If you get all of the numbers.. You win the jackpot.. If you get another set amount of numbers you get lower.. Just like in real life..

And to stop people from saying '20,000 is too much' you could have different lotteries..

One for 200 coins Jackpot of maybe 5000c.. one for 2000c and a Jackpot of 20,000 coins.. one for 20,000c and a jackpot of 200,000c?

I don't know if this is a good idea or me just being mad that I couldn't get a ticket for tonights lottery.. :lol:

Anyway.. Opinions? Let's keep this thread nice and no arguments please! :mrgreen: :geek:

In theory its ok but those with a lot of coins will stand a greater chance of winning esp if this lottery is ticket based! So u see the probability of a rich yo winning would be higher than an avg yo! :)

But if they set it so you can only purchase one ticket, then they have just as much chance as the less fortunate? It could work but at the same time.. It could be a bad idea lol :mrgreen: :geek:

I will win one day and buy my own island, or at least win enough to pay off my student loans. I may be on my death bed when it happens but it will happen! :twisted: :lol:

Lmao! Your own island? Now that's a cool idea! Haha! If I win (Which I will ;)) I'll buy a house, a car, a company and I'm sure I could spare a little for some extra YC :mrgreen: :geek:

Any rich person in real life could buy as many lottery tickets as they wanted and stand a higher chance of winning. The same would go for YoWorld. I think BVG should take a percentage of the turnover from the lottery to remove some of the excessive amount of coins in the game.

All in all, this YoLottery idea is fantastic!

How about (this just came to me) You can buy multiple tickets but it can only be ONE from each lottery?

If they did a 200c, 2000c, 20,000c lottery and so on, you could buy ONE ticket from each of those.. One for 200c, one for 2000c and one for 20,000c? Or should we just stick to the one ticket per person? :mrgreen: :geek:
