News June 28, 2007:
This thread has officially been dead since the 15th. I mean, people were allowed to roll here, but nobody wanted to, so that's fine. Now everything is going to happen over at the new thread, and I don't believe I'll ever be looking here at all. So... don't post here if you want to be noticed. June 4, 2007:
-The new thread has been created. June 15th will be moving day, and I'm planning a party to celebrate the new thread. Anyone that posts in the NEW thread from today until the 15th will have a chance at one of three (yet undetermined, but they WILL be sweet) prizes. Check it out here.-Also, any free ticket bumps or dice rolls for June will have to be done in this thread. In July it will switch over to the new thread. June 2, 2007:
-Oh!! I forgot!! I've changed the 'tickets sold : number of prizes' ratio. At least one prize will be given away every month, plus one for every 300 tickets that have been sold/given away. That's pretty much what I was doing anyway, so I thought I'd make it official, LOL
-I've announced on this thread that I will be moving this lotto to a newer, better, more organized thread at the end of this lotto. Stay tuned for updates! June 1, 2007:
-Ticket sales for June are open! I have a new system for the letters I buy... I will buy only one letter for the lotto when it opens. Upon selling 250+ tickets, I will buy another letter, so I will always have enough for prizes. This just helps to even out the PayPal load, haha. So... come on, buy your tickets! May 14, 2007:
-Two winners were drawn, both repeat winners, who have both been here since the beginning! Thanks so much for your continued support, you guys really deserve to win! To everyone who didn't win: IF THESE PEOPLE CAN WIN MORE THAN ONCE, you've gotta have a chance at winning at least one time, right?? DON'T GIVE UP HOPE!
-More to come. May 7, 2007:
-The main draw to my dice roll has been awarded to the 'UNLUCKY' -InsomniacStrawberries-!! May 1, 2007:
-Crap guys, due to my bank being a buttload of dumb, I don't have ANY money with which to buy letters. So, I'm desperately trying to sell one of my Aquaticas, just so I can buy ONE sealed to give away. Edit: We're good to go. I can only sell enough tickets to give away ONE letter though. Edit: 2 LETTERS!!! OMG someone just bought me a letter! I'm definitely gonna give away at least 2 this month, so people, START BUYING YOUR TICKETS!! April 30, 2007:
-My monitor doesn't work. OMG UR ALL IN MY TEEVEE.
-I might only be able to buy 2 letters tomorrow. Which should be alright, I haven't given out more than 2 in a month so far anyhow, and I have most definitely never sold enough tickets to be required to even give 2 out. April 22, 2007:
-Added a "news" section LOL
-Improved odds on dice roll (from 20 winning numbers to 30), to take effect May 1st. Mostly because I assume people won't be rolling until then anyway. It's not like I'm going to disqualify anyone who rolls a winning number before then. It's just that the first is my major thread update day.

Dice Contest Anyone holding over 20 tickets can take part in a Dice Contest!! Here's how it goes:
Have your 20 tickets.
You may continue rolling until the end of the month, as long as you purchased 20 tickets. Anyone wishing to roll after the 15th, without having purchased 20 tickets earlier in the month, may roll IF they send me 750g. Anyone caught rolling without having held 20 tickets or sending 750g will be banned from winning the dice roll.
Roll 5 20-sided dice.
Prizes will be awarded for every roll of 5-19 or 93-100. PM me if you get these numbers.
Dice rolls may be counted as bumps, see Bumping Prizes.
If you win, PM me with the page number and your prize choice. I will then contact the artist (if you win art), and they will contact you through PM.
Prizes:
Roll a 5-19: 2,500g, a free avi art by Xytu*, OR a FFVI-style Avi Sprite by me!
Roll a 93-100: Instant-win a Sealed!
*Xytu hasn't signed on in a while, so I can't guarantee this prize. If you want it, though, I can definitely see what I can do for you.

can i please get 1 free letter? crying
These and similar PMs tend to flood my inbox. I'm already doing a favor by offering my tickets at such a low price, with good odds. I'm not about to give away my letters to people who won't even play the game. I understand being short on gold, I was a noob once too. Or you might be saving up for a quest. This is why I offer bumping prizes. Do not ask me for letters or gold loans. If I said yes to everyone, I'd be bankrupt.
