    I have been wondering this for a quite a long time now.
    We know that one person can't win more than one reward.
    So...
    If we have a person A with 60000 lottery tickets, and a person B with 10 tickets.
    Do they start by picking the 30 LF4 winners or the 100k uri winners? Because, if the current system starts from 100k or from random reward, the A would have absolutely no chance of winning a big reward if they first draw the winners of 100k uridium.

    And if the draw order is random, that means the biggest possible chance of winning 30LF4 is only 2,38095% (since there are 42 possible rewards, 20x100k u, 1x1m u etc.). No matter if you buy 1000000000000 tickets. Likelihood of 100k uridium is 42%.

    So... My point here is that is there really any official statement how is the lottery actually carried out?

    The only reasonable thing that I can think of is that they first start with the best reward so the people who have most tickets would have highest chance to get the best rewards.

    I am just wanting to clarify this, or is it just an illusion to believe that by spenging much money on this lottery we can increase our chance of getting best rewards?

    (of course, by getting more tickets you increase the chance of some sort of reward, but after some point when you can be 99% sure that you will win something, is there any point getting more tickets?)

    I believe a similar question was raised on previous hitac. An answer wasn't really given then either other than... wait for it... "it's random" :D
