Hey guys thanks for checking out this post!
Hey so with the new update brings a bunch of new content, things such as the new lux, new bosses, better items, more places to adventure, and my absolute favorite addition.... The mail system!
I'll tell you why I am in love with this new system, do you remember a while back when I decided to do the lottery on the world of Rhiannon? Well if you don't here is a video that can refresh your memory.

^ this video above will help answer most of your questions
Ok so now that you remember how I used to do the old lottery I can explain how the new lottery is going to work.
Anyone and everyone who wants to play will be able to send the money and ticket numbers that they want to guess to my alt account named "lottery" and then I will be able to mail the winnings to whoever had the winning number.
Here I'll explain in detail:

Player A sends in 2,000 gold and a guessed number between 1-10000
Player B sends in 6,000 gold and a 3 guessed numbers between 1-10000
Player C sends in 10,000 gold and 5 guessed numbers between 1-10000
Player D sends in 4,000 gold and 2 guessed numbers between 1-10000

I would log onto the lottery account and post a list of all the numbers that have been guessed on the forums.
I will also be taking a 30% cut out of the total winnings ( consider it your tax. I ain't doin this for free! )

Let's say player A had the winning number- I would send him/her 70% of 22,000 gold which is 15,400 gold
I would recieve 30% of 22,000 which is 6,600 gold for providing a safe service.

I'm really excited to see how the lottery turns out this time around since it will be very easy to implement.
This is just an update for what's in store for update 4 on Rhiannon!

So, does the person that guessed the closest number win, or if nobody guesses the right number do you just keep the winnings for your self??

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that you guys didn't watch the video...
Go watch the video and then ask your questions...lol

To answer your questions.
The lottery is for players who are bored and want to have fun doing something else besides kill monsters.
The person who guesses the closest number to the winning number wins 70% of the gold.
I am not getting rich off of poor noobs, I am collecting 30% as a fee for my time, effort and honesty.

I can answer any other questions you have.

Hehe what's stopping the rest of us from doing the same thing, but taking a smaller cut instead? I think that's the easier way to make money here. Don't gamble - do the same thing OP is doing, but offer 80% and only take 20% cut.

The reason why I'm able to do it and be successful at it with such a high percentage is because I started with 20% and have worked my way up to 30%
I'm 100% honest so people always feel safe using me for their lottery. I always tell people, it's better to pay a little more and not get scammed.

Gambling for real money for ingame items or gold is against the terms and conditions.
I have been running an honest lottery for a while.

Too complicated. Just have 100 players sign up and roll dice, whichever you roll is the winner. I.E. Player x buys slot 53. After all players sign up, you roll. You roll 53, player x wins the pot.
