Monsieur C.A. Melot runs, on behalf of the state, a monthly lottery. To buy a ticket, reply to the regular press postings.

Winners are notified automatically. Jackpot winners are those with the same number as chosen by our independent Draw Master and win 65% of total Prize fund. Those with numbers either side will win part of the second prize of 30% of total Prize fund. If no one wins, then the moneys will roll over to next week.

The government takes a tax of 5% (1Cr) on each 20Cr ticket sold. The Director of the Lottery may siphon off an additional amount per ticket into his private funds: his chance of being caught is n*n*1%, where he takes nCr per ticket. In addition, he may hold up to 2Cr back per ticket for a 'Super Lottery', which he may hold any time he wishes, or it is automatically added in the turn after he resigns (or dies).
