At least 2 lottery winners will split record $370 million jackpotPrevious TopicNext Topic

And... to top it off, the GA winner has already claimed his money without a plan , so he will pay even more taxes.....

Among MM states, Massachusetts is tied for 2nd lowest population, with Washington.  Maryland is the smallest, but catching up quickly. 

Is it a surprise that Mass. didn't have a 5+0 winner?  No. 

Does that mean your odds would've been better in California or New York?  No. 

Don't give up!  But make sure that you're playing for fun.

I do think this is a bunch a *#@^!

This appears to be a case of too many "redundant" systems.

First, you have the Lottery (GTECH) gaming system - by the reports I got, it handled the wagers and the reprocessing and winner selection just fine. Apparently, the problems started with the Lottery ICS and (relatively new) auditing systems not being fast enough to "synch" with the large transaction volume to be processed (or in their case, reprocessed).

Still, all this bad press and inability to report results in a timely manner has given the CSL a black eye across the Country and hurt their standing with consumers at home. 

Congratulations to the two jackpot winning tickets. I had hoped that one ticket instead of two win the jackpot.
