No Lottery?

How long are your seasons? If you play with 7 day seasons then you will get less holidays. I play with 28 day seasons and I usually get the lottery at least twice a year.

Lottery has a relatively long cool down, and also only shows up on Wednesday's I believe. Do you have wednesday's locked down with other holidays frequently, because if you do, you won't get the lottery hardly at all because of it. I made sure to clear wednesdays completely so no scheduled holidays fall on them.

There is also a mod that reduces the cooldown so it can happen more often, otherwise it is a ridiculously long period between it's appearance. Even with the mod, I only see the lottery about twice a year (with season length of 3 weeks).

Finally have the lottery in my 100 baby challenge save.

And interestingly enough it was on a Wednesday!

I think every random holiday appears on a pre-defined day of the week, so if the days are booked for other holidays throughout the year, you won’t see the related holiday pops up on the calendar.

Thanks for the tip to keep Wednesdays clear :)

@marcel21 Not I, but I've seen threads from people here who have.
One person did a save-reload over and over right before the winner announcement until it came up that they won even. LOL

Mine are 7 days long but plenty of YouTubers I have watched are the same and have had the lottery

I have Seasons length of two weeks and usually see the lottery about once a year. Haven't yet seen it in my new save but it's only early summer, so I'll keep watching. It could be a bug in your game or possibly a mod issue if you use mods/CC.

anybody ever won?
