    Jumbo Cactpot Winners

    So on my server it's been since November 14th since somebody won the Jumbo Cactpot. Due to needing all the numbers exactly changed, we stopped getting any winners and get few and few people playing. The pot doesn't get bigger the longer without a winner. It's the same week after week. Winning is near impossible now so nobody really plays.


    Can we get some Cacpot adjustments? It's approaching 5 months without a winner.

    We've had pretty steady winners until mid november then something changed and no winners since. It seems to be across every server that I talk to as well. So something seriously has changed with Cactpot and needs fixing.

    1 out of 10k chances
    0000 to 9999

    I'm not against choosing the winning number from the ticket of someone.

    What's different about the cactpot now? I think I overlooked the changes in the patch notes?

    Someone in my FC just won like a couple weeks ago.

    It's the lottery, it's random, it's not supposed to be won often.

    At the very least it shouldn't require you to have the numbers in the same order; even most real lotteries don't work that way.

    From my understanding that was what changed. It used to not require them in order. Then they changed it to require them in order and the win rate basically tanked.

    Yes, but real lotteries with larger jackpots also have numbers with greater range than 1-9 (such as 1-40) and have at least 5 drawn numbers. Your basic pick 3 or pick 4 lottos exist of course, but the pots on those aren't very big either.
