So it appears that the Lotto character data is using some view of the character database that shows all the characters past and present for a given server rather than an active view.
Oh, and I did check to be sure it wasn't just a display issue, that character on Landroval did not get the prize.
What I am not certain of is if that character was represented properly on Landroval as well. I'm going to audit the character list more carefully on the next active lottery.

I'm not sure if it's just that the Lotery character data has not been completely updated yet but, my lvl 85 character does not show up as available for today's lvl 85 lottery. My 2 lvl 8 toons are eligable for the "under ten" lottery however.
Xar
Yesterdays little fish lottery (sorry cant remember the name that was given) for starters, lv1-10 showed me that the lottery data is being updated frequently as I created a RP char on landroval for a kin project and it was already included in the lottery a couple of hours later...
Didn't win anything...
Still happy :)
It depends on server. And maybe the phase of the moon.Quote:

So... as someone else put it, still kinda "wonky".
Will there start being more consistent lotteries up or will it continue to be sporadic and more hit and miss? If there will be a lottery schedule what would that schedule be?
Sapience stated that a schedule was never actually intended and I believe he stated we would not be going back to a schedule, but I could be wrong on the second half.Quote:
