    Got all excited this past Sunday when I went to check it out. Checked the ticket and before the screen came up an achievement flashed across the screen, was like whoo-hoo. Then the screen came up, got the last two numbers and missed the other two by one digit each, good for just above 10k, closest I ever got. Don't really see it as boring content, just something else in game. Not like you buy the ticket then stand there for a week waiting, that would be pretty boring.

    For anyone claiming you aren't supposed to ever win the jumbo cactpot, because that's how real lotteries work...

    [Work Smarter, Not Harder] Win cumulative 1,000,000 MGP from Jumbo Cactpot
    [How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Saucer] Earn the following achievements ..... Work Smarter, not Harder

    There are two achievements that require you to get a million MGP from Jumbo Cactpot, and if previous nerfs to achievements mean anything, it's that the people that create achievements intend for these to be realistic for anyone who puts effort into them.

    So let's say I roll up my sleeves and focus on getting these achievements. 1 million Gil from jumbo cactpot requires:
    winning a 1/10,000 chance one time, or
    winning a 1/1,000 chance ten times, or
    winning a 1/100 chance one hundred times.

    So to work on this achievement gradually, I only need to win a 1/100 chance lottery every week for TWO CONSECUTIVE YEARS.

    You want to put something that no one should expect to win in the game, fine. But when you put a title awarding achievement in for something, especially the Gold Saucer meta achievement, it should be something that players can work towards.
