Lotto seems to be broken

Post by silverx2 »

The lotto seems to be broken.

A drawing was held today, but no winner was announced.

This is the second time i have noticed this happen in the current game.

Maybe no one entered the Lotto. The script may not check to see if anyone is in the drawing or not. lol

Edit: I just looked and it show this. So it looks like Charlie won!
Charlie has won the lotto! The jackpot was 2,800,000. Charlie can report to any bar to claim their prize!

thats nearly half a month old, its also before the last two times this appears to have happened for me personally to notice.

I purchased a ticket about 2 hours before the drawing, it jackpot was 10 million at the time.

Reported a while ago, other than the news, it works, my alliance mate has been buying tickets like mad and winning.

Well I fixed one problem with the news (it was using the oldest lotto news, not the newest), but apparently there was a bug with the news being put in the database (which I would have expected to white screen but it just skipped it silently every time I tried :S)
