Lotto Bug...I think

whats with the lottery? it says the jackpot is $0 and that the last ticket was number (blank)! :blink:
PS why don't we have a guaranteed winner every week or something, instead of once a day randomly? no one wins this way!

For some reason, the Lotto didn't start working again with the new server. Perhaps you should tell Retto?

The lotto should be working right now...I went to work at fixing it yesterday...

Only problem: Jackpot is increasing by $0.

Retto · February 23, 2003, 12:24:21 PM

Deathclaw, you aren't looking at it while saying that. It seems to be working to me.

hey thanks man. any chance of the one winner a week thing? the system we have now never turns out any winners.

If there was a winner a week ,then the jackpot would never raise!!!

When I made that particular post, I WAS looking at it, and it was screwed up. Now it's fixed. Simple as that.

It still appears not to be working for me
Buying a lottery ticket is a good way to make extra money for our army.
When we buy a lottery ticket, that money goes into the jackpot, which goes up when nobody wins.
Tickets cost $3,138,978 and are valid for one drawing.
Lottery drawings are held every day at noon.

Current Jackpot: $345,348,734

6 tickets have been bought for the next drawing.
The last lottery number was #,
which nobody had, increasing the jackpot by another $0!
You currently have no lottery tickets.

dunno why
