Whats the problem with it? Angry because you lose gold?

The lottery neither puts money away nor adds any money.

The lottery neither puts money away nor adds any money.

And how do you know this?

Maybe it has a hidden cash sink because we don't know the exact amount of players participating and we don't know howmany tickets everyone buys.

[Baggy]

2000 participate.

Well would it actually matter? Though if gold is put away and there is some gold sink, that is absolutely fine. A gold add would be much more bad.

If you play it, blaming the lottery is a bit like setting your home on fire then complaining it burns.

The cRPG lottery works like all lotteries in the world, and is making "profit" out of this activity, profit which is taken out of the economy as a measure to counter the inflation.

It's ok. It might stimulate the economy just by moving large sums of gold around a bit, redistribution of wealth and all that. Sure players with more money can buy more tickets and have a higher chance of winning, but you only need 1 ticket to have a chance, and if you can't afford 1 ticket you have more pressing issues that whether the lottery is a good idea or not...
