Oh you meant your post? I was afraid we left it in official rules for a moment.

@Raederz The host need to mail all the money he got from the lottery + 1k per customer to the moderator, so he can refund all customers before closing the thread, and mailing back the prize to the host. where this one come from? Have I missed it somewhere?

Please take a look at recent changes in raffles. We are now enforcing guidelines that govern how lotteries take place. Players creating a raffle must first private message a Trade Corner Moderator (Bearminator) or any staff member before creating a thread. Players are buying spots in the raffle, not an individual number of the ticket. The number of spots per player can be limited by the host. After a month, the host of the raffle should provide information about the number of spots bought by each player -> preferably by editing the first post of the thread. Example of list: Player 1- 10 tickets Player 2- 10 tickets Player 3- 5 tickets etc. The player must mail the item/Pokemon being raffled to the Staff member who will keep it safe until the raffle ends. The staff member in question will input the names of participants into this sheet, and generate a winner. Player's will be given a results sheet to view. A staff member will then mail the prize to the winner. Lottery threads must not be opened until the staff member has confirmed receipt of the prize. Raffles can only be canceled if at least one week has passed since it has been opened AND 0 tickets have been sold. If 1 or more tickets have been sold, it cannot be canceled. There is a 1-month time limit on a raffle and a limit of 200 tickets. If either of these limits is reached, the result will be drawn. Hosts can choose lower limits for each, but not higher. Ticket prices can only be reduced by 50% - no more, no less, and can only be reduced once during the raffle. If ticket prices are reduced, each existing participant must receive double the number of tickets they purchased at full price. If this would put the raffle over the 200-ticket limit, prices cannot be reduced. Tickets cannot be given to players at a discount, including for free. Refunding tickets will not be allowed. One raffle can include only one item or Pokemon. Each player can create one raffle per month. Tickets have to be bought with in-game money. Gifting tickets, or exchanging them for Pokemon or assets is not acceptable. Raffles can't block any kind of player based on nationality or team. Standard trade corner rules apply as well. you can find all Trade Corner rules here.

To add a little, when you have lottery thread you can't have trade thread, so it's basically same amount. It doesn't matter if in thread there is "lottery of bulbasaur" or "trading bulbasaur"

I don't want you to think I feel disrespected for you having other point of view, not at all, don't worry Our Staff members have other tasks to fill as well. That's why quick report is good- it brings attention, gives time to stop doing what they need to do and focus on chat for a while. While I understand it's not ideal solution, I don't agree that voting system is

To be more specific - you can always use option to report Player and make us aware that chat is filled with other languages. Report x Times to get someone muted is abusive and Easy to troll so al dont think that will be done.

Just to add to last post- There is report button, its called support request

General discussion is not offtopic and hot dogs are not sandwiches

A little change for our Team Tournaments. Since we believe it's big effort to win TT, we will increase prize for now. As for time being same as champions league: please, don't tell me you don't play while watching something.

I don't think it's good idea for obvious reason- this way we would need to determine prize. Lets give example, someone will message me with shiny Gigalith. Currently only one on gtl is for 1.5m but host wants 2.5 m total. Should I cancel it/not allow it because it's risk for the lottery to fail? No. In lotteries, you're not buying full value of prize. You're buying one ticket. If player would make 50m lottery for 1m shiny, obviously it wouldnt fill. He would then be asked to change amount of tickets for example. It's obvious that we don't allow lotteries without moderator vision right now and scamming is banable. If someone would make lottery thread claiming that for example I have prize, and I know I don't, I would nuke it asap. I will tear apart this one : What happens if a lottery takes too long to find customers ? What is "too long" ? / I think that 2 months of active getting players interest is enought. It's not official measure right now, depends of situation as well. What if the host become inactive ? Then, after we will try to reach OP asking to confirm getting money or to give at least sign if his lottery can go. If there will be not a single way of contact from him- no message, no reply- no login into game- we would simply run lottery, because it needs to be held. What if any customer want his money back at any moment ? After a certain duration ? I'm sorry but I don't think that one should be possible, unless host will agree in certain occasion. This can potentially bring issues with someone canceling ticket in last minute. If you want to buy tickets, you do or do not. What if the host want to change the lottery caracteristics after it started (price and/or number of tickets available) ? What about already paid tickets then ? I don't see issue here. If host has 100 tickets for 10m as example, then he changes it for , idk, 200 tickets but same value- then if player bought ticket nr1, he would have ticket nr 1 and 101 or whatever- because he bought % chance to get pokemon. If host would like to decrease tickets- its his right and its best for player- his %increase. Free lottery belong in trade corner. It's trade after all. Time/ticket limit is up to host, since it's free, players can just wait for free lottery to end. They don't lose anything. Varying price- Yes, just take yours lottery as example. You said that someone will make drawing, he gets free ticket- is it fair to people who only paid? No, but they can do garbage draw and get one too. If this would include something unethic- like "if you're on my friendlist you get free ticket" then its no-no. I think little things like drawing, or "catch this pokemon and show me (SHOW, not TRADE) is fine. I would like host to contact us to discuss it first tho. I never seen lava cookie lottery, smallest one I held was for something like 300k vanity so I dont see point here. As for shiny eevee etc- I don't see reason to limit value. Take this 20m for "10m value". It sold out. If there would be problem, tickets wouldn't sold out, he would have to change value /number of tickets and thats all. We will not allow canceling lotteries at the moment. Amount of checking things and sometimes misscomunication makes it really bad. If you're running lottery, you need to think how to sell tickets. There was debate about values too. I will answer it like this: If player A makes lottery for around 2m assets, and tickets are up to 4m- it's fine. It's his decision. If lottery will not fill, it's his decision as well. We will ask to change tickets/ value or anything, but its still okay. There was huge debate about how someone is making lottery with higher value of tickets than assets they were inside lottery. What is common missunderstanding is that player is not buying for example 10*1m shiny for 15m. He is not overpaying. He buys ticket for for example, 1m. If he wins, then his risk pays. I'm sure players have common sense at high enough level to know that they're not guaranted to get prize. I will tried to make it all as much readable as I could atm.

@ItsPlex Hello. Since it's almost 6 months since lottery started , we would like to see something done about this lottery. Maybe try to double lottery tickets while dropping price in half? There's no activity for longer period than one month, and if that will continue we will have to run lottery.

Hello. Since it's almost 3 months since lottery started , we would like to see something done about this lottery. Maybe try to double lottery tickets while dropping price in half?

Hi hyped, im bear

It's same argument as above. I was waiting for Tier list update for May and planned TT earlier. I'm most certainly not going to change any tier for NU this month, due a short time before TT. Next month isn't out of question.

You're right that no movements were made in usage, but that simply isn't telling me that NU is stable. From my perspective, I got as many votes for "yes " as I got for "no". We got results for may only recently, and I don't want to put our players to situation when I will change this TT format due to "giving tier", making possibility that they will need to prepare mons/players for it from now. I will for sure, as a host, talk with our tier council members as well and I do take your point into consideration, but I don't feel like changing this month tiers is possible option atm. Edit: that doesn't mean that we will not see NU as I'm not 100% against it at all. I just, personally, didn't wanted to make this month TT without seeing usage.

Got some technical problems with recording device so I've used other one, sorry it took that long. Our winner is @Acarus congratulations :)

Confirming I have Kyu Hat in my bag now. :)

Thats same problem but on smaller scale. Overall its bad idea due to economy reasons - in real Life you need to pay debt or face consequences, here it wouldnt be possible to manage such thing in game.

Im pretty sure suggestion like this was denied before, I still don't think it's possible to become a thing.

I totally forgot to post it, timid nature

Our FAQ thread is being worked on currently, there might be potential change into current thread but I think we will use old one. To your Point about the fact that its outdated and then generating Q uestions - we had a lot of Questions when FAQ was answering almost every question as well.
