Definitely not worth it anymore. There is not enough Lottery Money to be won, let alone to be spent on that stupid thing anymore. I never hear of anyone winning anymore, and if they do, it's chump change.

Don't waste your breath. Now if Devs started throwing stuff like +3 or even :O +4 Items in there, that baby would shoot right back up in popularity. But nope. This is what we get.

no
people are like potatoes, they come in different shapes and sizes and they all are beautifull
masturbating while looking in a mirror isnt wrong unless its the rear view mirror and you are driving a school buss.

it doesnt matter if you are happiest person or an unfortunate weeper, a powerfull beast or a terrifying creature. we are all equal, in the eyes of the reaper.

Mathematically speaking, it was never worth it, welcome to gambling.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

I've put around 60k into it and won 1kk gold.. that was months ago however. usually putting 100 gold each week for one ticket only. Maybe I'll win one day again. :)

When I don't forget entirely (that is more often than not), I buy 10 tickets each week. I haven't won a penny. But I play with low upkeep gear, so losing 1,000 gold is not even noticeable. I lose more money grabbing +0 items to test them with my current build anyway.

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

How come you get a forum name change and they will never change mine to Tanken?

So today. I see I have mail, go into it.

Subject "You have won the lottery!".

I almost shit my pants.

"The prize money of 16380 gold was transferred to you."

I spent 10000 so I get 6380 profit. Wow, so worth it. :/

It isn't worth it until you are a lucky person. I won only once (I bought one ticket) but just something around 17k. From this time, I always buy 5 tickets and never won a shit, so.  :D
