Alright.  I don't play it, but this constant winning of the raffle by the rich is irritating.

Please impose a daily limit of a maximum of 100 tickets per person.

I really don't understand why there isn't a limit on the raffle.  You limit stocks so people cannot get rich instantly.  Why not limit the raffle?  This way, everyone will have an EQUAL chance of winning the raffle.

It will still take luck to win, but the rich folks will not be able to pour 100 million tu into the raffle and win it just because they buy enough to beat the odds.

I agree. There should be a limit for this, it's sort of unfair to most of the users on Res.

Of course, if staff doesn't agree with this... they can always remove the 50k share limit on stocks instead. :P

of course i agree with you geo and i think if somebody wins they have to wait 4 weeks te replay the raffle just so at least maybe different people will win.

I agree that something needs to be done to make it fairer for everyone, rich and poor alike. A daily limit sounds like an excellent idea to me.

definitely agree =)

disagree with removing stock limit though because it would cause monopolization + bad inflation = Res becoming a super fail game for most users.(which I'm sure you already knew xD)

The annoying thing is, HP isn't doing it just for the TU. It's become a competition amongst those who can afford to hijack the raffle to see how many times they can do it before losing. I think the record is six or eight...

Hijacking the raffle is lame. Whoever does is sad. :/

Please, yes. I played the raffle once and got discouraged. Never touched it again.

I wasn't seriously considering removing the stock limit. ::chuckles::  I put that there to make a point. 

And while I wasn't specifically thinking of HP, I agree with you Horselova.  Rich people tend to keep putting their stocks in the raffle to see how many times they can win.

I personally consider it a waste of my valuable tu since I'm not willing to pour 50 mil into it, much less 100 mil.

Would love to see someone put that much in and lose, though. It would be hilarious.

If someone put in 50-100mil and lost, it'd be funny, but then that person would whine to staff or Patrick. It'd make it funnier, yet annoying.

total support. And I agree it'd be funny. I think it'd be great if someone poured 100 mil in and someone like me or 14brokenmirrors, who just buy 1 ticket every time, got it. That'd be perfect. Not saying me in particular, just anyone that bought 1 ticket.

Oh I know, Horselova.  But someone beat her out by putting in even more.
