Is it worth it to buy the lottery

[ErzuzB]

Ah I misunderstood then. I thought the closest would win.

I thought so at first too, but that's sadly not the case.

as a gacha game player i can tell you, it's always worth to gamble, not like it's actual money this time( but seriously don't bother with it)

just a minuscule amount of tomfoolery

You're essentially paying the equivalent of 10 posts to buy a lotto ticket? I guess it depends on whether or not you think it's worth the time spent doing that

As someone who likes numbers, I can tell you mathematically and statistically it is absolutely NOT *worth* it. The number of entries you would have to make to guarantee a probably win are far greater than the prize value. Quick estimate you would need to spend ~5000 LC to have a 75%+ chance of winning 2000 LC

One have to chose 6 numbers out of 10. If these 6 match all 6 drawn numbers, you win, otherwise you loose.

I did the calculations:
There are 210 combinations:
10!/(6!*4!) = 210
n! = 1*2*3*...n with 0! = 1

This means, if you put 1 LC to the risk, there should be the chance to win 210.
If you win more, you'll gain LCs,
if you win less, you'll loose LCs.

Currently they ration is 2000/50=40
40 is much less then 210, so don't play at all.

Is it weird that math turns me on? full sprung after reading this. I may need professional help.

worth it if you buy one ticket once a month

Hell no your odds of winning are stacked against you and most lose more then they win. Just like in real life.

Lottery is for poors tbh.

i talked to a guy who spent like 500 in the lottery and lost it all. so no, its totally not worth it. i mean you could farm the 50 Coins and try as often as you can but in the end- the amount of coins lost would be more than enough for +.. it would just take a bit longer

You're far better off in the long run just banking your coins and collecting interest
