FAQ
Q: How do I set the amount of money the jackpot should start with?
A: You need to set extraInPot to whatever amount you want it to start with, and then do clearExtraInPot: false
Q: The jackpot is winning too much, I don't want it to win.
A: Then you need to change the numberOfTickets to something else, or just set it to 0 (jackpot will never win then).

Configuration
In the configuration that is made when the plugin is run the first time, you don't get comments about the different options. Here you do!

Tutorial
PS: The /lottery claim command is used when you are using material and you win, since blocks/items can only be given to online players
any update on progress?
Working fine for me on CB: 2725 - Nice little addon to have on the server.
@TWSSYesterday @zSwayz @goflish
The server I maintain this plugin for doesn't use the rollover feature, so I have no real evidence of it not working, but last time i was debugging it, it seemed to be working fine. I find the plugin works a lot better with the ticket number set to 0, so there is a winner every time.
Every 'slot' has a equal chance of winning, or at least as equal as i can make it using java rand function (which is a passible rand solution at best). So if only 20/50 tickets are bought, there is a 60% chance of rollover.
Yeh I have always wondered the same thing of that player herz, one time when I was vanished and he obviously thought that he was alone, he sent out a command that he mistakenly put a fullstop in front of because it is next to the / , I can not remeber what it was and wonder too if he knew of a way to do it. @Drake63628
@goflish
I'd love to know this as well. Too many rollovers :<
I sell 50 tickets, it draws every 2 hours and 20-40 tickets sell each round.
I just checked "/lottery list" and the last 10 winners all went to jackpot.
Is it not working right? I'm using spigot 1.5.1
How would I increase the chance for there to be a winner?
Hello! I have essentials eco and useiConomy: true
It seems to work but 1 ticket is $500 and it seems players need $1 more to buy a ticket? Any help?
I have to ask...there was a player we had who won this 7 out of 10 times in a day, and each player had gotten the same amount of tickets every time. Is there a way that a player CAN hack this and win or was he just VERY lucky?
We use an item for lottery; we had a jackpot that resulted in more items than the player had slots. The excess items did not appear (e.g. drop to feet).
This should fix it; change removeFromClaimList in this manner:

@Kitten_Tails
Nope.
Is it possible to win items AND money?

@DTACGaming
Deleting will never be possible, you are corrupting the config file. You could try setting the message to empty string however.
ok. Would you mind doing that for me? Really like this plugin and its for my server.
Also it doesn't mention "Lottery draws in 1minute! type /lottery buy to buy some tickets."
could you add that?
Thanks bro
@DTACFrostfire
Deleting it is not possible.
hello, really love this plugin.
but i have a problem. It keeps reset the config (even if i edit the 1 in the jar be4 i put it into my server)
all i want to do is delete There was a total of (number of players) buying (number of total tickets)
i deleted it from the config in the .jar but it still says it in game.
(i did delete the old 1 + the folder on the server)
thanks :)
@risen32
set numberOfTickets to 0
How do you set it so that there's a winner every draw?
@strontkever
I think i might have it set to be given by default in the plugin.yml... I don't know how pex deals with this.
hmm players are able to buy tickets even without permissions set (PEX).. is that supposed to?
