All lottery info reset when I teleported, I gave everyone new tickets but even got rid of info that was saved by logging (had tickets sold over the week, so logged off numerous times), would this be a similar error to the crash issue?

No, when the player wins it's up to you to go give them the gold, it will announce them as a winner whether they're online or not.. If you have the calendar options turned on it will post their name as a calendar event. Then you can mail them the gold :-)

Just thought I'd clear this up... It's actually working great for me. I had to select the option Load Out Dated Add-Ons in the Add-On screen.

Please fix it... :)

It's just you, and possibly Phrimer also, although "not working" is a little vague <3

There were no changes in 4.3 that would affect Guild Lottery, plus I know it's been working for me and at least 1 person on my realid.. On your addon list (on the character selection screen) please make sure that "out of date" addons is turned on since it IS currently out of date (but the code still works fine in 4.3) :-)

If out of date addons are enabled and you're still unable to use it try using the slash commands /glottery or /glot for short...

If those STILL don't work... The only other thing I can think of is that another addon might be interfering with it, although it's quite a simple program...

Try those out and let me know your progress :-)

I'm going to reply to this in two parts... which will assume you're in different parts of the world..

First: If you are in Europe (or quite possibly anywhere OTHER than North America/Oceanic) then yes, the GM is absolutely correct. Gambling (even video game-style gambling) is illegal in some European countries (I want to say Greece is one, but don't quote me on that). In order to allow for the law in SOME European countries, blizz has made gambling against the rules across the board (since it would be hard to police individual countries) A blue post from the old blizzard forums states;

"This is correct. While European and US policies are usually similar, they aren't necessarily identical. Casinos remain against European scam policies at this time, and submitting an in-game ticket to report the matter is indeed an appropriate step to take. Thank you!"

Second: If you are in North America/Oceanic, and the GM said that, he is full of shit. I refer you to http:us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?locale=en_US&articleId=27048

which quite clearly states that it's not the casino (read: Gambling) that is what is against the rules, but rather, the advertising of them on public channels. GM's, as much as we wish they knew everything, quite often don't, and even worse, quite often just say how THEY believe it is, without even doing any research (Read: They make shit up). If you go to Wowpedia and check out http://www.wowpedia.org/Casinos You'll see that at one point (prior to 2005 I think) casinos were against the rules, and since then blizz has relaxed the rules. You'll also see that they've said that even though a guild channel is a public channel (technically), because guildies are considered friends and have to opt into being on that public channel (much like if you invite someone to a private channel). There is absolutely NOTHING in the EULA that prevents gambling (only scamming, and spamming).

Hope this helped clear up any confusion :-)

Figures, just wanted to cover both bases, since I've heard US GM's make 'factual' statements that weren't exactly accurate.. Anyways yeah if one of your guildies reports you, they can smack you... But then if you have a guildy that would do something like that, I'd gkick em personally *laughs*

You CAN still use the guild lottery addon however, you cannot charge people for tickets.. so if you wanted to use it as say, a raffle where you just give everyone a free ticket or whatever, I THINK that would be allowed as they aren't really gambling at that point :-)

I've just been talking with a GM.

Guild Lottery, or Gambling in general - No matter where you do it, Guild or not - is "Against the policies" as he told me.
As he also told me - It's safer within a Guild as your Guildies will probably not report you, but if they do, they will take actions accordingly.

Also we talked about other ways, could make Guild Contests, Art Contests or Halloween Contests as he suggested, on the Guilds forum/website ^^
Then he started talking about something with a bonzai tree, pretty night elves, and photoshopping things to win a screenshot contest. Eh yah! xD
