To make it feel less bad when you lose, even if still quite harsh, losers should get back 10% of the points they put in and winners would get their points + 90% of the rest of the points.
Example:
The current amount of points in the lottery is 100 000 points and the winner put in 10 000 of those points ->
- The winner gets (10 000 + 90% of the other 90 000) = 91 000 points
- A losing player who put in 1000 points gets 100 points back.
This makes it feel less bad when you lose, meaning you might want to play in the lottery again,which I'm sure is some gacha/gambling/cassino technique.
Other:
- The interface could give the losing player back the 100 points with a message like 'Sorry, you didn't win. Better luck next time!'
