Lottery

  1. Ok, just a quick idea but hopefully a good one, I was thinking maybe a KaW lottery you can enter once a week for let's say as an example 20 nobs with a guaranteed prize, the smallest being maybe an xtal and the biggest things such as circles, seals and equipment. Pretty low effort thread but you get the idea :)
     
  2. could work, depending on how many people enter, cost to enter, and how many prizes are rewarded. idk about a guaranteed prize though
     
  3. have you tried the Crystal geode that's like a lottery
     
  4. Yh, but it's only temporary I'm thinking of a more permanent fix
     
  5. Turn it into a nice gold sink where bigs pay for multiple entrys and maybe
     
  6. Low effort thread but like the idea; support.
     
  7. I like this idea, i could see the cost of the first entry fee at 500bil or higher + 1 nob for a large acct while making it so they can only decide on a winner after a total pool of around 250T-500T is invested by the players, taking gold out of the system before putting any back in. The prize would have to be significantly less than the pool collected but high enough to encourage spending 500b + 1 nob & it should work imo...you could even scale the entry fee so it costs less for smalls + mids than for bigs.
     
  8. Scale the entry fee, just like they scale the nobs to gold conversion based on size
     
  9. Support for free stuffs!
     
  10. It wouldn't be free though....
     
  11. The issue with the crystal geode is that it cost real money that often gives you less of a prize than if you didn't use it at all.

    A lottery or gambling system should use gold. This game wants gold Sinks, that would be a great way to do it.
     
  12. The crystal geodes give you all your money back, it just depends on what you're buying. 15 nobs gets you 30 minimum forge stones. Each xtal costs 20 forge stones. They're both a 1.5 rate.

    If you're trying to get seals, however, good luck with that :lol:
     
  13. Support.could be a 10b-100b-1T ticket lotto.5-10 winners get the gold and something from the devs.im a gambling addict so would love it
     
  14. I like the idea. It could be a perfect gold sink.

    Everyone is aloud to purchase one ticket. The cost would be based off CS. If your CS is 50million your entry would be 50billion. And the payout would be the % of active players involved. If 75% of active players bought a ticket the payout would be 25%. Devs get 75%.

    This would be great for small players and big spenders. Give a 24hr grace period for the winner so they don't get stripped right away.

    I'd like to see someone run numbers based off active accounts. The payout could be astronomical. I don't know.

    Just a thought.
     
  15. Couldn't of said it better myself ️
     

  16. I would suggest adjusting the number and percentages.

    Maybe make 3 winner step?

    I would keep the idea of the cost of the ticket based on your CS but I would make the cost a bit more. Make it very pricy.

    But I would change percentages. Maybe something like this.

    Three tier:
    Of all gold put into lottery 60% will be tax and go back to devs (gold Sink)

    1st place would get 25%
    2nd place 10%
    3rd place 5%

    Winners percentage would go up so to ensure they make more than they put in if a low number of player pay in.

    I would also cap it if a high number of player pay in. This cap would be based on CS. With this CS base cap the bigger players would have the highest cap and it would go down. Though at no time can the number 2 or three winner make more than the number 1 winner.

    Maybe my idea makes it a bit more complicated, but it's what I would put on paper to be thrown out for debate.

    Please feel free to change anything. What do you guys think?

    Regardless I believe it is a grand idea Moose.
     
  17. Good idea, just can't make it nobility cause then that's considered irl gambling >.<
     
  18. Sorry to bounce this back up but this game is 17+ isn't it? Gambling's from 18, not entirely sure just an educated guess, therefore all you need to do is state it on App/Play store and change the age by a year then all will be well :)
     
  19. The thought that this game would be 18+ made me chuckle, when most of the time it resembles a bunch of kindergardeners squabbling.
