Summary

Powerball System Mechanics:

1. Ticket Purchase: Players can buy a Powerball ticket at designated locations, like convenience stores, banks, or through their phone. Each ticket lets them pick 5 numbers from a set range (e.g., 1-99). The ticket could be priced anywhere from $100 to $1,000 in-game currency, depending on the economy of the server.

2. Regular Draws: A Powerball draw happens at regular intervals, say every week or every in-game day, depending on the server's time scale. The winning numbers are drawn automatically by the system.

3. Progressive Jackpot: If no player hits all 5 numbers, the jackpot rolls over to the next draw and grows over time. Each new round adds a percentage of the ticket sales to the jackpot, building anticipation. The jackpot could have a visual tracker displayed on billboards or on a special lottery website that players can access.

4. Matching Numbers:

   • 5 Numbers: Hits the jackpot (massive payout).
   • 4 Numbers: Smaller payout, like 10% of the jackpot.
   • 3 Numbers: Even smaller payout, maybe a flat amount (e.g., $5,000).
   • 2 Numbers: Consolation prize, like a free ticket for the next draw.

5. Payouts: When a player wins, the server could announce it through global notifications. The payout would be deposited into their bank account, or for RP flair, players could claim their winnings at a specific location like a lottery office.

6. RP Tie-ins:

   • Scams: Criminal players could try to sell fake lottery tickets or steal winning tickets.
   • Group Pools: Civilians or groups could form "lottery pools" to increase their chances, creating interesting social dynamics.
