      <description><![CDATA[I know the pool I run and I will continue to play no matter what the change is as well.  In fact, if the jackpots get over $100 million more frequently, I'll be able to increase the members of the pool.  I can't seem to get anyone but the die-hard regulars interested unless the jackpot is 9 figures.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I'm hoping for around 165-190 million myself. That's why I like my idea of 5/60 + 1/33 (or 34) (feel free to use this Mega).I think that 200+ million would seem to much but most could handle.The slips could handle 5/69 + 1/33 at max but the odds of that would be 370 million to one.I think a change to 1:185 million would go over smothly especially if the smaller prizes got a boost. At least the price won't change.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Also, don't forget that when CA joins, 1 in 135 million is not going to be the odds...when the 500 lb. gorilla joins, you know there is going to have to be a matrix change in the mix. I'm figuring odds more in the line of 1 in 200+ million. (Though looking at some of the various states' MM playslips, I don't know how they can fit many more numbers on them without a major redesign.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Plus the annuity in the CA game stinks. I think they even give below 50% cash. I do know that it's not the same amount of cash over the years of the annuity. It grows with time (and inflation).]]></description>
