Not sure the disguise idea would fly. Pretty sure you need to look like the picture on your photo ID. | | |

You can certainly have the 5 white balls first....no problem there..... Then I will accept the 5 white balls and pb ( all on one line of course) as a follow up. ..sounds reasonable to me..

Who looks like the picture on their ID,anyway?Picture ID's are notorious for not looking like the person getting their picture taken.

Not sure the disguise idea would fly. Pretty sure you need to look like the picture on your photo ID. If you read the actual rules you'll probably find a clause that says something along the lines of "the winner agrees to allow the lottery to use their likeness for promotional purposes." Any pictures taken while you're wearing a disguise won't represent your likeness. OTOH, you can wait to claim your prize until you've gained 100 pounds, grown a beard down to your chest, and hair down to your ass and that wil be what you really look like. | | |

I'm in a state that has anonymity rights, and, if I ever won, I'd keep my anonymity. But I'd want to go on camera and say a few words about how screwed up this world seems to me, and of course my intentions with my lotto winnings. For one, I'd get as much spread-out land, as I could. This is so when our over-populated planet eventually approaches standing-room only, I'd be set. | | |

Not even worried about taking the anonymity to that level. You can always change your name, move to another country. I never wanted to leave this country, but after Japan helped contaminate our wonderful country. . . | | |
