Crossovers

Contestants who previously competed/appeared at other national beauty pageants:

gollark: ```python def generate_winner(self): self.winner = self.generate_ticket() return self.winner```
gollark: `self.chosen_ticket = whatever`
gollark: You should probably just make them attributes.
gollark: Also, it seems terribly architected. Why is it always one `Lottery` class even though you can't run `check_ticket` on it until you do `generate_winner`? Why does it say to return the result of that but also implies you have to save it?
gollark: Hmm, this programming task is actually quite unclear.
