Thanks for this script!  The continuous pathfinding seemed a little annoying at first, but given how much easier it made it to get the 10k tickets on several shards and on several accounts, I can't complain!  I was curious about how it would look running with several accounts at once, so I setup three chars at the gate and started the script three times, all within seconds of each other...looked funny watching what appeared to be several characters following the first one around. I'll be sure to test this on a few other shards as well, but I didn't see any problems with it and know this will help me get rid of some misc gold on the shards I don't play on!  Thanks again for sharing!!!

Dont forget to get you FEL tickets as well as tram... I might add that in ..

Thank you EN for this very helpful script.  I am also going to start up several accounts at the same time and watch it buy up tickets!

Just tried out the ultra lazy version (even though it didn't seem as ultra lazy to try out a new version!) on a few shards, and other than the missed gumps (as mentioned by _C2_ and seemingly caused by lag on the shard - increasing the waits a little worked for later chars/accounts), there was only one other issue:

When I set it to not spend in tram and to only go to the southern plots in fel, it just went right to Luna and stopped. 

I don't know whether this is worth fixing or not, since the lottery is over in about 5 more days, but it works great overall!!!

Thanks for the feedback I believe my mistake was i put OR instead of ||   err.. fixed.

Your welcome Oracle...  Spend that gold

[gimlet]

EN - I think EA should give you a cut of all the gold they sink away!

[Canuker]

Thought I would give this a try and wow it works like a charm.  I hate to say but it showed me two plots I had missed due to lack of research.  Thanks a bunch for letting all of us use this and good luck to all with the lotto.

[Dixie Wrecked]

Thanks for the quick updates - the newest version is working great for me!  Now I just wish i had a little more gold on some shards to get more of the one-shot tickets (can make 400-500k in about half an hour on some shards without any trained chars, but some shards just aren't very cooperative in letting me make money!!!)...

Anyway, thanks again for this great script and hopefully there will be a lot of people from this site with Magincia Plots to do with as they please (other than claiming them as grandfathered houses...such a shame that's not the case)...

I haven't bought one ticket... no desire.

I thought it was a rather silly idea and would liked to have seen the Dev Teams limited resources be put to something else.

However many people seem to be excited about the Maginicia Plots. It'll be interesting to see how it turns out.

Perhaps Magincia will become a Baazar that can compete with Luna.

You do have to trade in or give up your house if you win the plot right?
