Have a look here and click on "Lottery".

It's my belief that the lottery cannot be won, that the code required to create a win is not in the game, and that it's all a red herring tax for the stupid. Even if it was winnable, the credits in the prize fund would not fit in your account.

The probability is about one against the number of topics posted about lottery. :D

(and the one who voted yes is a liar :p)

It's funny how four people have voted that they have won the lottery but none of them decided to post about it :roll:

Fine, I won it. I was the first one to vote yes.

I won it several times.

With my winnings, I put it all into 1 credit coins.

With these coins, I constructed a giant palace. Out of the coins, you understand.

Oh, and bought some Pandas.

... Space Pandas.

And one miniture giant space hamster. Called Boo.

It's what I was going to do if I ever won the real lottery.

When I first played X2, I thought, "Hey, it's a 1/3 chance, I'd be silly not to go for it." Bought about 4-6 tickets then never again.

It isn't neccessarily any of the tickets that you can buy...i think someone worked it out ages ago and the odds were worse than winning the real lottery :shock:

Yep, that's true. And I thought the Powerball Lottery (USA) was hard to win.

Your post is hilarious man!
What are you feeding the pandas on? Just out of curiosity.

Because strange as it may sound, I too am buying pandas with my yet to arrive Earth lottery winnings - and I don't like tha look of bamboo.

the secret about pandas is that they only reporduce after ingesting spanish panda fly, who's main ingredient is nividium. that's why the ones in zoos on earth never mate, we arent good enough friends with the pirate anarchy port. I think drcbvi is a pirate lover. how else do you explain his giant panada habitat.
eagerly awaiting X3....
