Non-broadcast balls vs. computers
MA, for example, generally doesn't broadcast its drawings, but claims to use a ball machine. At least for the in-state biweekly games. I assume Mega Millions is broadcast (or at least is available for broadcast somewhere, which is good enough for me), and I don't pay much attention to the daily Numbers Game.

Unbroadcast DrawingsReply
There are no computerized games broadcast (see the State Lottery Report Card in the Results menu for a list). Some states broadcast a cartoon showing the numbers after the fake drawing takes place, but I don't think that counts as a broadcast drawing. There is no way to physically show a computerized drawing, even if you're look at a computer monitor, because who knows what's going on inside the computer program?

SoundOff New Jersey Lottery is cheating in the Pick 3 and Pick 4 GamesReply
In 2011, the NJ Lottery started to broadcast the drawings on TV again. (See news story here) Do any of you watch the drawings on TV, or just on the Web? I'm curious if they are rushing the drawings because the lottery is only given a short time to broadcast on TV.

Non-Broadcast Ball Drawn Games
This was mentioned in another topic I posted recently. I'd like to see a list of the games that we known (or have every reason to believe are) ball-drawn but the results are not broadcast either on TV or on the web. Please add which ones you know. VA - Cash 5 Evening NY - Pick 10

indiana lottery corruptionReply
Four4me:The way it works is as follows:The Hoosier Lottery has no published liability limits. Rather than ratify such limits as other state lotteries have, the Hoosier Lottery prefers instead to actively track player selections on a central computer. Now, with their RNG machine connected to their central computer, a piece of code can be written to scan its database, find the number with the least amount of play, and then instruct the RNG to render that combination. This enables the Hoosier Lott

State lotteries should be legally required to broadcast a live webcast of their drawings.Reply
Tv is ok for the local population of players. But with playing the lottery online being a reality every state needs to broadcast their drawings live online so the whole world can see. One would think it would be cheaper to do a live webcast online as opposed to paying to have it on tv. I don't think they care that they suck as long as their profitable. Change for any organization usually takes messing with their money since making a profit is the only thing they care about. If players stop playi

Will the States Pic 3 and Pic 4 games remain unaltered?Reply
I sometimes wonder if multiple PB and MM drawings are held and they just broadcast the one with wanted results.

Thoughts on states that do not have live drawingsReply
I would think what they are saving in 'operating costs' (as if they couldn't afford to broadcast live dawings) they are losing in trust.
