Lottery

There really isn't a need for a new department just to sell lotto tickets. Community agm just needs to make sure they do it as part of their job lol

a new department is out of the question really, just not needed

There needs to be a notice at the top of the forum constantly advertising the lottery just to remind people that it's on. There's clearly lack of interest atm since you've upped the ticket limit from 10 to 20 so idk why there isn't something more practical being done about it.

Right now only managers can sell tickets which is odd, cos the managers are the ones that typically use habbo so much less than their staff members. Find a way to let staff members sell tickets too and more will be sold.

Also idk why it's 'sponsored by trade city' because there is no mention of it inside trade city itself...

No problems...

But like myself, I love habbo, but i only spend my time in casinos and trade city.... Cus my motto is Habbox Rare Values.. People ask me if I could sell them a ticket, but i say no of course , and i direct them to manegment... As I am in Rare Values, I direct them to Will ( @Pigperson) and then they reply that he has not replied the there friend request...

This is what I am thinking is theres a HabboxLottery Email (E.g [email protected]) And then all manegment have access to it at all time... and then they dont have to worry about there friend list getting full... or theres a certin team of current staff which run the lottery not manegment because the manegments are very busy and dont have enough time to run the lottery aswell as there own departments!

My best bet is to have a new department....

Manager
Ass. Manager
And there team

And they have a job of selling tickets !! Then they write down somewhere of all there tickets which they have sold... and every ticket sold they just give the coins to there manager to pass to Matt or Inseriousity.

Thanks

Just saying I accept all F/Rs because I don't bother about my friends list. Feel free anyone to F/R or PM me for tickets xxx

Is there currently an announcement made for the lottery winner when the draw's done? If so and it's put in the community notice board I'd suggest putting it in the general announcements section instead since community just gets flooded with events updates and pretty much no-one wants to read them, so for the sake of one potentially "out of place" thread a month I think it'd be worth having it somewhere more visible

Umm Well, Personally I dont think Habbox Help desk needs alot of coins.... neither News Maybe 20 coins every so often so they can run comps... The most coins should go to competitions then events... as every competition you win 5c !! But events you give out furni on your own will and its your choose if you do or you dont !! xo

Yeh but if HxHD manages to sell a lot, then good for them because Rosie gets off her bumzy and gets funding for her department, which can be used for things. If events and comps clearly know they are lacking credits (obvs there are donation, be it a lack of them) then they can easily turn to the lottery. This is why it's their incentives.

I've spotted this too. And we'd have users asking to buy tickets and there being no management around to take their coins and give a ticket. I'll probably be told now, ''Why didn't you call managers?'' - it's not my job to do that, management were meant to be there at 9pm.

This is the thing... In the thread (Here), it says



But I go to trade city round that time and never see anyone ?? I have to ask manegment to buy tickets... What happens if your not a regular forum user... and you look at this thread and see.. 9pm trade city.. you go there, and it turns out theres nobody there... ???

Yh, I totally agree that it's not your job to call managers they said they will be there! I actually if you say something you should do it !!

@Darkred,; I don't agree with you at all really, every department could use funding and most departments attempt to do on-client events. News has two active Habbo players as their managers (I believe) and we did try to do a quest for the Olympics, we are planning on doing credit competitions and other things for HxSS and we're a content department. Ok so maybe departments with managers that don't play Habbo as much such as content don't need the funds but I do think a lot do regardless whether they're community or content.

Also, I don't agree with the new department, you need a level of trust for that surely? They would be in charge of having all the credits, even maybe giving the prize out, you would need to make sure say all General Management had the information just incase someone resigns or go away, but like I said I don't agree with it. I also think that, making a new department means you get less people selling tickets (or being allowed to sell them) so you probably won't get as many interested, I don't tend to sell tickets often, but then again I don't need the credits like some departments do, don't worry I've done my bit but it gets boring after a while.

I remember when the Lottery first started up again, Mike and co were always in Trade City selling them but I also got told I couldn't go in before 9pm to sell them and it was General Managers who were going to be there, not normal department managers but by the looks of it that changed.

i think i ran the lottery back in 2008 when i was comps staff, i wish it would be publicised more.
