I hope that MM goes on a record jackpot run. Congratulations to the people who won $250K on matching 5 numbers, but missed the Mega Ball.

I'd like to see a jackpot run too but would settle for a jackpot of any amount.

 I'd even be happy for 2nd prize!

anything would be welcome!

shalini, you can play MM in India? or are you playing in the US? thx

Wouldn't it be nice to add a

SUPER LOTTO USA

and have it available to:

1. All current states that have lotteries
2. Then add all the states in the USA that do not have a lottery.

PURPOSE:

• To provide national disaster relief funds for the people of the USA.  According to the weather experts, we can expect to have a series of devasting hurricanes (2-3) per season due to some phenomenon.  Nevertheless, we are having them.  Like most lotteries benefit education, this lottery would be a fund ear marked for natural disasters only; Floods, hurricanes, devastating tornadoes, an event like 911 (pray that never happens again!) etc.
• The SUPER LOTTO USA would be played ONCE per week:

          ___have a minimum jackpot of $25,000,000.00

          ___Rollover of a minimum of $ 10,000,000.00 each week no winner

                  is drawn

          ___With five consecutives rollovers with no jackpot winner(s),

                  double the jackpot for the next drawing.

          ___ tickets cost $1.00

          ___Offer a community lotto ticket that would include an option to play all lotto tickets in your state, plus the SUPER USA LOTTO for a certain price and get a free random ticket from one of the group and be able to choose your own numbers unlike the current Florida Lottery "Grouper"  Grouper is a $5.00 ticket where all the lotto games are played and you get a randon free ticket for one of the lotteries.  Only drawback for me is that I can not choose my own numbers.

          ___Advance Play Options

          ___Annuity or Lump SUm Option

          ___Double the jackpot (option at purchase for $100.00 per play).  [The PowerBall has an option on the second prize level for multiplying the "power play" number drawn]

            ___Include an option to double the prize money at all levels (except jackpot---see above) @ $2.00 per play.

AND another feature would be the winning of a dream home in each state, complete with two cars, and the dog.  Maybe this would be SUPER Lotto USA scratch off tickets @ $1.00 per ticket.  Other prizes would be:

• a car
• computer
• various appliances
• college scholarships 
• family vacation

Each state participating would have a batch containing one dream home package,  two one week family vacations, ten cars, 20 college scholarships, 200 computers, 50 laptops, 5,000 various appliances, and cash prizes with each state having one top cash prize of $250, 000.00, five $50,000.00, five $1,000.00, twenty $500.00, one hundred $100.00, two hundred $50.00, three hundred $20.00, five thousand $5.00,  ten thousand one free tickets.

Or, to keep it simple, just add a "Prize" column on the play slip!

Now this would be SUPER.  I also hope that a needy disaster victim gets the next big jackpot

I don't know if people want to win merchandise on a LOTTERY ticket. That's what raffles are for.

This super lotto is a wonderful, and I think we could fund diricken events.

Winner2b,

I play my lottos either through friends or purchase them online from London. We are not allowed by the goverment to use our credit cards for this purpose or some crap like that anyway. I gamble online for the Indian lottos here but manage to play the us , the uk and the euromillions through London.

I've requested our online company to atleast have some method of purchasing these tkts here but so far its PTS zindabad ( thats indian for "long live") !!!

Now up to $165 million. Let the frenzy begin!

I already bought my three tickets. My friend won TWICE last week.

Hope nothing happened to you or friends with the latest bombing.

Chewie, its really sad with the latest bombings...only the main Hindu areas were targeted and not  the other eligious areas. This is our biggest and most joyous festival..it is the equivalent of Christmas in the western world...the government can't or won't do a thing...they can say what they like to the media but we all know wo is behind these senseless killings...with gods grace all my kith and kin and friends are okay!

Thanks for asking...I appreciate your concern for us over here.....

PS : sorry for the spelling mistakes
