Lotto is always going to be 'unfair' to those that don't win -their- item.

In your example the only true winner is the one with the highest roll and first pick.

#1 picks the item #1 and #2 wants.

now #2 takes the item #3 wanted and so on.

The 'old' Lotto system forces people to decide if they really want that item they're rolling on. Risk winning an item you don't want, or take your chances too miss out entirely. It's a gamble.

The most 'fair' method is taking modifiers into account, join a raid, win nothing and get a +3 (5/7/10 etc) mod on your roll on the next raid.
