Once a week, the giant iron kettle in the back room is filled with shreds of paper, each shred containing a one-digit number. Under the eyes of independent citizens, to keep everything honest, three numbers are drawn. Here is an example of the time of drawing:
Oscar the Orc, an employee of the Lottery Office, dives headfirst and blindfolded into the kettle, and throws three pieces of paper onto the floor below. These papers are unfolded in the following sequence: The first is the number 8, the second is a 3, and the third is a zero. 830 would be the winning lottery number that week.
If anyone chose these numbers when buying their tickets, they would be the winner of the week. The minimum pot of a win is 10,000gp. Tickets cost 100gp each. There is no limit to how many tickets one can buy in a given week.
Winning numbers will be posted in both the Sandpaper and in the Lottery Office, and winners have 30 days to claim their prize. If there is no winner, half the pot (minimum of 5,000) is carried into the next week's prize. Example:
No one wins the 10,000 in week 1. The pot is now 15,000.
No one wins the 15,000 in week 2. The pot is now 25,000.
No one wins the 25,000 in week 3. The pot is now 40,000.
In week 1: 5,000 was carried. In week 2: 10,000 was carried, and in week 3: 15,000 was carried. Week 4's pot, if no one won in week 3: would be 60,000gp.
