The Neopian Lottery

Sun Jan 30, 2005 6:39 pm

If you look at the lottery page, it shows that the last draw was on Jan.27th... Isn't it the 30th today?
Is anyone else seeing this? o_O

Yes, but I won a ticket yesterday at Dice-a-Roo, and it doesn't show me as holding a ticket. So maybe they just haven't updated the page? Weird.

Ya, I think they just haven't updated it. But it's been 3 days... Maybe nobody ended up winning? That would suck... :( Some poor, unsuspecting fool(well not really,) would have their hopes up, and then not win. But, then again, it wouldn't make to much of a difference, because the chances of winning are very, very small.

I don't think it possible for anyone not to win. with only 30 number to chose from, someone has to have at least one number.

I've never won lol. And I used to play 10 tickets a day every day for like, 5 months and still never won. It's not worth it in my opinion in all honesty.

I have won once. I play my birthday and my 2 sis's birthdays as numbers. Problem was, a lot of other people won, so all i get is like 10-15k or so. At least it free NP and I get a new trophy to keep shiny.
I like shiny things.

I like shiny things too! The only reason why I enter is for that nice trophy... shiny, wonderful trophy!

My friend won 100ishK from the lottery. he was so excited. I've never won but that's probably since the onely tickets i buy are the ones i win from dice-a roo

I don't pay attention to the lottery but... goes and looks. I think you are right.

Well I certainly hope they don't get rid of it...

Though it's always a possibility since the Australian gambling problems...

I don't have a gambling problem, I can quit when ever I want, but not till I win , Then I will quit, till the next day, and try again, lol.

there doesn't seem to be an update on this... it still shows the 27th as the last drawn date. Has anyonw heard of anyone winning since then, or am I just wasting my money on a faulty program?

Have you sent a bug report in?

Tue Feb 08, 2005 1:10 pm

aye.. about a week ago. I'll send another one in to be ignored.
It'd help if others do as well, though... this is what I'll be putting in, and you can rephrase however you want:
Since the 27th of January, no results are being displayed, yet the game tickets seem to be bought and redeemed like normal. Without the results, it's hard to prove/disprove that people are getting their money unless you know a person that does win. Please correct the error, so we can see the results once more.

Well I'll keep trying cause who knows, maybe i'll win 10k again, lol.
