And the winner is.. DonSteelback
Well, it is official. The biggest lottery thus far this reset has occurred. The winning ticket was officially drawn at 5:00 pm Bootleggers time on Wednesday evening.

The winning ticket number was ticket #33715, which was bought by a player by the name of MrMacabre.

The total prize amount, before taxes, was a whopping $25,398,500, and after taxes, MrMacabre received a grand total of $20,318,800!

All in all, there were a staggering total number of tickets sold, which funded this large lottery. This final number just before the draw was 101,594 tickets. That is enough for every account to have 2, and still have lots left over!

Some people question if the lottery is a scam, and they claim that it is not worth their time and money. However, one player, who's name I will not disclose, spent a total of $6,000,000 on tickets, which bought him a total of 24,000 tickets. This was roughly 23% of the total amount of tickets sold.This goes to show all of you that it does not matter how many tickets one particular person has, and that playing the lottery is just as much of a risk as playing any other casino game on Bootleggers, or in real life for that matter.

So, I think all of you agree with me when I say to MrMacabre: Congratulations, and could you possibly spread the wealth?

For the rest of the general public, who did not happen to strike it rich this lottery: Keep playing. Odds are, the more you play, the better chance you have of winning in the future! The next official lottery is scheduled for Saturday, March 31st, at 5:00 pm Bootleggers time, and already its shaping up to be a fairly decent sized pot.

Until next time Bootleggers.

This is DonSteelback signing off. Keep your stick on the ice.
