Just found out they have a new Game in Ohio
EZPLAY Games are instant play-style games (like Scratch-Offs) generated through the Coronis terminal (On-Demand). Everything you need to play is on each EZPLAY Game ticket (like Scratch-Offs).
Printing EZPLAY Game Tickets is alot less expensive than having an outside Vendor make Scratch-Off Tickets: The Games are Played in the same manner: The Ohio Lottery saves Money.

Ohio Lottery director resigns
I didn't know the state owned those terminals, I thought they belonged to the vendor.
I don't know about other areas but in my area some of those terminals were due for a replacement. Several places were selling tickets that the terminals couldn't read because they weren't printing the bar codes clearly. The clerks would type in the tickets serial numbers that they could make out and hope it worked. I doubt if anyone will want those old terminals because they've seen their best days.

Does anyone know how the lotto machine works...
You should be more trusting to the point you at least say in which state you bought the ticket when you're asking a question about a game since you list your location as United States .

Need Dream Help Please
Last night I had a vivid colorful dream of being on an airplane that continued to circle a stadium, not sure if it was a baseball or football statium. The plane eventually crashes, wings come off, but no one is hurt. Next episode is of being on a crowded city street with family members as we look at vendor tables.
Any clues??
Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know why don't we get a receipt for purchasing a lottery ticket(s)?
Can you point me in the direction of the law for register sales receipts? Hot dog vendors- no receipts, Sidewalk vendors, no receipts, Lottery terminals- no receipts. Computer/TEchnology events, no receipts. Asked even and received a nice smile of You are joking lady!
Even contacted my state Revenue department on one local business because they dont even ring up the order but miraculously take your money and give you your take out food. State just said, so long as they have a license to opera ...

Anyone Ever Heard Of This System?
No but because you mentioned his name and lottery, many LP members and guests will google that name with lottery and go to website that's selling this system along with 10 others system. Sometimes when a question like that is asked, I think it's actually the guy or a vendor selling that stuff that is really asking the question. It's one way of getting some free advertisement on one the nation most popular lottery website.

N.C. Pick 4 lottery game starts next week
Oh yeah,
I am waiting for the big pick four to get going. So that I can get my hands on some $$$$. Every time that I had seen the lottery vendor's I would ask them when are we going to get the pick-4, they would tell me they did not know maybe in the spring march or april . So here we are waiting for the big pick-4 to be kick off.

GTECH chosen as preferred bidder for N.Y. Lottery
Not necessarily. It is ultimately up to the Lottery itself not the vendor. The way the tickets are printed and from what machine could and probably would change. But the vendor doesn't necessarily make those kinds of decisions, the lottery does.
