You sent it to the wrong character. I petitioned that character. The GMs removed that character and returned the ISK. Send it to the correct character. BIG Games.

in lotterReceipts still "no records"
i sent evemail to BIG Games, nothing changes
It is because of the apostrophe (') in your name. TornSoul is aware this is a problem, but will not change the code before the end of the round to avoid fiddling with things when such a high volume of transactions is going on.
I got the same problem then. :( I thought they were manually adding the tickets? Copy/paste from the receipt page -> quote: "That we have made a typing error transfering the ingame journal entries into the Lottery DB (no copy/pasting atm)" All your ore are belong to meh.. :3 |

That has changed now. TornSoul used to enter every entry manually. Now it runs off the API and saves him oodles of time.

Count the dashes. If there is one dash it is a ticket purchase. There are no columns.

Read carefully:
No, your purchase is NOT entered as a donation. Count the number of dashes!

Wow, big just got 61 bils from this lottery. And even tho I wish I would say "is it fair they get that much", I can only say grats, since it does take a great commitment to host a lottery for 5 years. And even tho I never bought tickets, I guess I will chip in for this one too _________________________________

Wow.
If thats the case, that's 61,000,000 tickets. The players with the best chances have 50,000 tickets.
That's a 0.000819672131147541% chance one of you will have the 1st prize ticket. That's a 1 in 1,220 chance.
It's a 0.00819672131147541% chance that one of your tickets will be one of 10 winning tickets. That's a 1 in 122 chance.

No, you will have tickets for the lottery, you just won't be able to see them on the receipts page.
TornSoul, try something like the following. Test it on a backup first, etc, etc.
Quote: UPDATE table SET column = REPLACE(column,"''","'")

Originally by: Kazuo Ishiguro I wonder what Tornsoul is going to do with the excess ~40bn isk so far accrued in ticket sales? <snip>
Originally by: Ray McCormack
Anniversary rounds earn an excess that goes towards making up the difference in other rounds where BIG pays out more in guaranteed prizes than is covered by ticket purchases. And prizes are generally higher in the rounds following an Anniversary. <snip>
As Ray said (and thank you for answering so many questions already ), the excess ISK does *not* go into the BIG wallet.
All ISK stays with the BIG Lottery, to be paid out as prizes - This and comming rounds.
Originally by: Kazuo Ishiguro I didn't think that the lottery usually made a significant loss, and I also wasn't aware that the surplus from one round was ever carried over to another one, although naturally it makes sense to do so. Does that mean that over its entire lifetime, the lottery has made zero profit?
Negative profit in fact...
Ie. I've had to give BIG Games a little ISK infusion now and again, to cover the fixed size prizes.
--------------
Receipt page problems for characters with a ' in their name should now be solved. Solved as in.. a band-aid solution... But it should make it possible for everyone to see their receipts now.
Please let me know if this is not the case... I don't have a char with a ' in it myself so...
