I see the lottery as being a leotalks 2.0, where you interact and have the benefit of still being rewarded with it. I think the problem with this whole discussion is not even in the structure itself, but in the grammar of the term "lottery" it seems to imply that it is some kind of a game of chance where the house always wins, but it isn't, whoever comments wins a lot more than @vempromundo who has to be posting and drawing the lot every day. if it was pob talks and had written the same text without the term lottery but continued to reward the participants, I believe that the people who criticize would be supporting it.

And as for the ticket issue, it doesn't even make economic sense, people buy it because there's plenty of it and it's always worth it, there's only about 3 participants, so you spend 1 and earn 9 in profit, you can buy 9 times before there's a loss, and those who buy are increasing the premium for those who are unable to buy and only comment.

If other whales that have pob to spare encouraged delegating pob it would help a lot, the small guys who win only comment and win in the draw know the difference that makes about 10 more increases your voting power increases your stack encourages you to do more curation, you could even increase the prize to encourage newcomers by increasing the number of winners and so on.

And another thing, the draw is small, those who participate are starting, it should be encouraged, the post itself always has fewer votes than it's worth a prize, there's the lottery, but the incentive and the goal is for people to come here and interact, there's always some There are some poems that I thought were super fun to participate in, and people are always talking about the best thing.
