Could all lottery drawings be fixed?Reply
What are the exact rules of four fours? It rings a bell because we had a middle school math teacher who was into puzzles. I think we did five fives to practice order of operations.

Has anyone ever received a winning lottery check at their job?Reply
And I'm pretty sure that in these sting operations the lottery is targeting retailers that have been the subject of multiple complaints by players. It's not a good use of resources to just randomly sample retailers to check their honesty. There has to be smoke. I think Karentasha should download her lottery's app so she can check her tickets herself and stop worrying so much about getting conned by a shady retailer.

Could all lottery drawings be fixed?Reply
Good question. I'm not a puzzle historian but I think originally these puzzles were meant to be limited to basic operations and symbols most people know. You can use .4... with an overline to represent the repeating decimal 0.4444..... = 4/9, but that's hard to put in type on a forum. I've seen webpages where people have solved it up to the tens of thousands using obscure functions represented with Greek letters and cheating by using squ and cube to represent ^2 and ^3. I think if a 5th grader c

Incident update April 2, 2024
Lottery Post was offline for around an hour this morning, starting at around 11:15 am Eastern Time. The problem was a network configuration issue at the data center that Lottery Post operates from, not something within Lottery Post itself. Local network operations were fixed at 12:14 pm, and once that happened service was immediately restored to Lottery Post. Sorry to everyone affected by the down time!

Does anyone know the wheel guarantees 3 if 3 30numbers. 30 lines. 90% win chancesReply
Speaking of getting carded. The young checkout girl at the store I work at carded me some time ago when I was buying beer. I was amazed, since I have gray hair, along with a gray beard and numerous wrinkles. LOL. I said really ? But produced my DL and all was good. (She's not there anymore). I wasn't mad about it, just amazed. When I asked the operations mgr about it, she said the girl just came out of training.

The segment did point out that most of the retailers they visited did the right thing by explaining the ticket has to be cashed at a lottery office or by mail. Some even gave her the claim form and explained how to complete it. It could have been complaints or people who cash a lot of winning tickets who were associated with these stores. If someone is cashing a lot of winning tickets at the lottery office and they are in a job where they check lottery tickets, such as a clerk or owner of a

Do you believe lottery officials stalk certain players?Reply
The Mass Lottery shut the game down as a result. Jerry and Marge Selbee played and won lots of money on the Mass Cash WinFall for six years before the game was retired. A group from MIT also took advantage of when a roll-down happened The Mass lottery made an 80 cent profit on every $2 wagered including the thousands spent by the MIT and Selbee groups. From a profitability point of view the game was a huge money maker for the state. These groups only played when they could create a roll-dow
