Not really, for most games it's not even possible without "rigging" the game, which is something I definitely don't want to do.

I can imagine that programming the lottery could get quite complicated, but we could have it so that the whole fund rolls over (if it doesn't already).

Yeah, that was a day of math...
Basically that is what happens, although the percentages are different, and set up to payout about 100% overtime regardless of the numbers plugged in. However the percentages are set up with less number choices in mind, so a 6 number draw would pay very little for 3 & 4 hits. Which I think would annoy folks, as mentioned above, people like to win. If the lottery goes a year with no winners, chances are it would have no players either.

The change is not reflected in the user profile page. It still shows a dollar sign.

Yes, I'm undecided on whether I am calling it a bug yet or not though
You can manually change it in the plugin, but can't use the phrase in the plugin as that "group" isn't loaded outside the casino. I will probably end up moving it to the global group at some point though, and fixing that. But for now just edit the template. It will say something like "$$cash", just change the first dollar sign.
