Do we want Lottery?

You can talk about anything here, not necessarily game-related. You may also advertise here.

Pros:
-you rarely win, but you think you might

Cons:
-few people play it
-it allows 'luck' to enter the game, as opposed to pure strategy

if the amounts are too low and frequency high lottery becomes like scouting
if the amounts are too high and frequency low it makes certain ppl suddenly way too strong

if the amounts are in the middle the positive effects are too small to be useful
it would be something like trying to use interest gained from the bank

I think we need a bank to keep our money in that gains more interest, and the more money you have in there compaired to your networth the more interest you gain per dollar. And when you get attacked you don't lose that money. Also I think we should use real time for gaining interest (like the stock market).

Can we take away attacking for food and money?I hate that because it's so easy to take every thing a food masser worked for.They should have to work to gain the hawks to do it.

no they shouldnt
especially now that military attacks have been crippled by the race divisions
if anything i would want it to be more effective and have hawk stealing

this prevents outright hording like that of rwl
and makes the game more of a fight to the top

besides.. there are plenty of strategies to compensate what you have complained about

A couple of points/ideas: Nick is understandably ticked off because milk stole a TON of food from him.

A way I prepose to fix this would be to also have a "grain storehouse" a place where you could store all of your food without it being taken away, now in order to balence this out it would cost a certain amount of money to keep you food here (like the way a loan works).

And last of all we should change the vermin crows to ravens MUCH COOLER B) :D .

For one, I have never used the Lottery (except when you got 10 tril :*laughs*: ). So I don't care if it is taken out. I probably won't notice until two weeks after I'm playing anyway... :D
