    I have a few ideas, but They will both alter the rate of winnings and the amount for balancing reasons

    • Make it a 6x6 scratcher like the Mini. 15 tries, several combinations, higher payouts (1000-5000 at min to the 1000000 grand prize for ... a sum of 666. with various prizes in between. Still Once a week
    • Allow more tickets per week, but lower the Grand Prize by an amount of tickets (500000 for 2, 333333 for 3, etc)
    • Allow more tickets per week but divide the earnings by the amount of players that have the winning Numbers. (ex. 3 people winning would get 333333 each)

    Suggested that because you have a 90% chance of getting consolation prize, but there's an achievement to get a cumulative 1 Million MGP from jumbo. I have all the other achievements from saucer events towards High Roller, but the jumbo one is impossible without incredible luck, because I won't reach a total 1M from loser tickets within the lifetime of the game.

    Increase the cost of the ticket purchase along with the increased consolation prize payout, I don't mind, I will pay a lot more to get more back so I can make achievement progress. The mini cact way of allowing 3 ticket, each costing more than the previous is fine.

    At this point it takes just a handful of weeks to earn 1M from other activities, challenge log. I bought both the Fenrir mount and Cloud card. So even 1-in-10,000 chance grand prize on the jumbo isn't very attractive now, only needed for getting the achievement fast.

    1 million MGP from mega is far beyond a stretch goal if conolatin prize is your weekly reward.
