Dear Esteemed Members of the Community,

It is with a heavy heart that I come here today to bring attention to a most pressing matter: the unchecked economic tyranny of one GimcSnooper, who has transformed our humble TTT lottery into a personal bank account.

Let it be known that the lottery was once a beacon of hope for the everyday player; a daily thrill, a glimmer of fortune in a chaotic server. But those days are long gone. In their place stands a towering financial empire, built upon the dreams and point balances of countless innocents.

Since the inception of the lottery system, there have been 28 drawings. Of these, GimcSnooper has won 11. That is nearly 40% of all drawings. More damning, however, is the disproportionate hoarding of wealth. Out of a total 2,080,000 points distributed across all drawings, GimcSnooper alone has claimed a staggering 1,222,600 points, or almost 60%. This is not mere luck. This is structural dominance. This is an oligarchy.

While others buy one or two tickets, hoping to turn modest fortunes into a lucky win, GimcSnooper walks in like a corporate tycoon, buying the pot outright and daring the rest of us to challenge their supremacy. The playing field is not just uneven, it is vertical, and we are all at the bottom looking up.

We do not play TTT to simulate the economy of a failed state. We do not log in to be reminded of wealth disparity and class struggle. This is a server for Trouble in Terrorist Town, not Trouble in Tax Haven.

Therefore, I submit the following proposals:
  1. GimcSnooper be banned from participating in the lottery until such time as the community has recovered economically and emotionally.
  2. All 1,222,600 points be redistributed to the playerbase as reparations.
  3. A small statue of a common player (perhaps someone who bought one ticket and lost) be erected on all our maps as a symbol of hope.
This server must not fall to greed and financial tyranny. Let us restore fairness. Let us restore balance. Let us remind GimcSnooper that while he may have won the lottery, he has not won our silence.

Yours in protest and poverty,
Helitin
 
This suggestion has been closed. Votes are no longer accepted.
He 100% does not have all of those points, and banning someone from the lotto does not entirely seem fair. Gimc may win about $30,000 to $40,000 per lotto and has a very high chance of losing it every night.
 
I work for the people, not paid by the people... I just work here.
 
Unfortunately, your argument is sorely lacking in one significant detail:
The lottery pot value has a direct correlation with the amount of tickets purchased.
As such, the points GimcSnooper invests in winning the lottery by having a large amount of tickets, needs to be accounted for in these supposed winnings. This is often to the tune of several thousands, which would greatly skew both your data and the value of this proposal.

Furthermore, every ticket invested into the lottery comes with the great personal and financial risk of the masses laying claim to his hard-won points.
This is the land of the free, home of the brave. But that does not mean you should get the fruits of his labour for free. Though I commend your bravery in standing for what you believe in. Gimc provides a valuable incentive to the community by personally financing some of these large pot values, we should not hate him for his good fortune but strive to be like him.

As such, -1.

And the oligarchy grows. Let it be known that only staff members have -1 this proposal. What an odd coincidence, that.
 
It's not fair to ban an individual from the lottery just because they have the points to buy a lot of tickets. It's like saying that if you play poker and someone goes on a run, they need to re-distribute the chips and auto-fold a few hands to bring balance back, it just doesn't make sense.


There's not some % win distribution that is being strived for, it's just a lucky chance to get a points boost, and Gimc has the right to buy in same as anyone else. -1
