On lotto rules:
I thought over the rules we used yday (a time before i've seen it was like 5 yrs ago - on some TG raid...) - and remembered a thing which i dont like in it. That's the fact that "order of item presentation for roll does matter" - and puts some players in unfavorable conditions.
Example:
4 items for lottoing, person 1 needs item2 most, then item3 and item4. Person 2 needs item3 most, then i2 or i4. Reasons may be various - "this is for main and this is for alt", or "this is a very rare thing, noone sells it, and other can be picked off CM, tho pricy"....it doesnt really matter.
So what we have here?
item1 - both persons skip rolling for it.
And for item2 it starts. Person1 rolls normally - if he wins - he's happy, if he loses - well, 2 more items incoming. And person2 must face a difficult choice - should he roll on i2, possibly win - and forget his chance to get i3 - or skip this roll like with i1.
This is unfair to person2, aint it?
That's the reason i dislike this roll method - and the reason why i asked to use "winners pick" one. And i would like to hear other ppls' opinion on this too.
And anyway, lotto rules are up to RL.
