Well, there is a statistic on the personal page that says "lottery jackpots won" Of course, mine is 0 since I think the lottery odds are realistically bad, however there's always hope....

Dragoongfa, are you sure...?

And hello from Agia Paraskevi (lots of greeks on line today...)

It's semi-official that the lottery is unwinnable, nobody has ever proved that they have won it (without scripts). Whether or not that's changed in the latest patch, is doubtful, but here's hoping...

Yes i am sure, i took a message that three of my numbers came out so i won 2500 credits (the ticket costed 2500

).I still have the message can i screenshot it or not?

And hello from ILION.

PS: I haven't downloaded neither any script nor the bonus pack, only the update pack.

Dragoongfa, any good picture viewer should be able to view TGA files

Try Irfanview.

It'll convert damn near anything.

Dragoongfa · Post by **Dragoongfa** » Tue, 28. Nov 06, 21:13

I've bought ~10 tickets since I read 2.0 made the lottery winnable, but have yet to see any results.

Where did you read that it was now winnable, just out of curiosity...?

If you don't want to get new programs for TGA, press printscreen, then open with MSPaint.
