@CraftyMyner First Lotto Draw has been completed, the results are in.

I can't believe I won, but I don't need them so we had a drop party at spawn!

i got 5 DB
also i raided 2 end cities today
LOOT:
2 elytras
2 Dragon heads
many pieces of diamond and iron armor and tools
1 GOD CHESTPLATE OMG! (but it was thorns 2 instead of thorns 3, I thought i took off my chestplate for a sec and then i realized my chestplate didnt have thorns)
63 gold
somewhere around 20 iron
4 emeralds
26 shulker shells

All this came at the cost of 1 hour of sitting at the computer and 38 fireworks
Also crafty note the typo
weeks is supposed to be week's

Wtf rigged.

@R4iscool1 Wtf rigged.

@Retrochewy explain how

crafty won thats how and it was a joke big guy

wow haha 1 gold block :3

I still have 4 lottery tickets, what do i do with them?

There is also a mistake in @CraftyMyner original post

First Lotto Draw Results:

Diamond: CraftyMyner (64 Blocks)
Emerald: TowelGodfather (64 Blocks)
Diamond: Carl_Sagan1 (64 Blocks)

It should be Gold not diamond

@Carl_Sagan1 I still have 4 lottery tickets, what do i do with them?

You don't need them. They are basically just receipts. Also since this lottery has been drawn, those numbers don't mean anything. You'll have to re-enter the new lottery.

@WBlaine You don't need them. They are basically just receipts. Also since this lottery has been drawn, those numbers don't mean anything. You'll have to re-enter the new lottery.

Oh okay thank you!

Surprised and disappointed .

However much I like the idea, it has the potential to really mess up the economy. Because any John/Jane Doe with 9 diamonds could go from nobody to rich. This is a problem because people who work for their profit via business or otherwise could work for months and still not have even half the amount that this random won for just being lucky.

I like the concept, but I need the willpower to actually mine diamond. I'm way more an explorer/looter than anything!

so like an actual lottery then?

The lottery fixes the economy actually, no diamonds are added In fact they are taken out reducing the inflation.
So what if one noob gets rich, the rest of the people participating lose out so it's fine from an economic sense.

@CraftyMyner That is why I also put limits on how many can be given out, in the past lottery, if I had given out 100% of the items entered, some random person would have received about 3000 diamonds.

aka you

@_Confederacy_ 3000 daimonds or 3000 DB? A stack of DB was givin out and 3000 daimonds is roughly 46 DB

Isn't like 334?
(3000/9)

64 is still quite a bit. But I guess it's nearly impossible to balance it out fairly.

@CraftyMyner ?

Surprised you would enter the lottery because of likely perception of conflict of interest, disappointed that the remedy was to drop the winnings at spawn where it's likely some that benefited weren't even stakeholders. I feel confident that you didn't cheat, still I find the outcome disappointing. I guess I was looking forward to winning or congratulating one of my peers. I'm sure you got a lot of pushback and I didn't want to add to the drama (but since you asked) :P

@CraftyMyner When I entered, I was only testing to see if the system was working (giving out and limiting tickets) I never thought I would have won.

lol
if ur so lucky then try to win each time with only 1 ticket :P

@CraftyMyner When I entered, I was only testing to see if the system was working (giving out and limiting tickets) I never thought I would have won.

I was pretty surprised too, but after thinking about it, I figure that it's better to have Crafty or staff enter in the rare chance if it's ever just you in the lottery. That way you're always guaranteed to win more than you put in.

What are the results for this week?

RIGGED

@CraftyMyner CraftyMyner: 45 Gold Blocks

Lol, wait for the complaints to roll in.
