This should be a great time for an upgrade. They can get a really good deal on some lightly used equipment from the Iowa lottery.

I thought that people were supposed to learn from their mistakes.

With everything that has gone on in the past with C.N.G.'s, why would they want another computerized system

Increase the level of business continuity / availability Improve real-time monitoring and alerting

TRANSLATION

*Provide non random numbers based on precise settings established by management to reach financial yearly goals

Send alerts when too many players bet on certain numbers and adjust non random number selection in REAL TIME and improve spying on numbers played accordingly in REAL ZERO DELAY TIME.

Sir/Ma'am,

You have a good point there. If we stop playing, that would shock the system, and make the

administrators look up, and take notice.

But, we can't stop playing. This forum is full of people who are desperate

for money, which is why we have to play every lotto game.

Like 'yours truly'.

So, even though they don't care,

We'll always be there.

Mr. Groppo

This arrangement hinders scalability as well as automation.

Shouldn't that read This arrangement hinders security breaches as well as rigging. ?

Anyway plenty of people will still be stupid enough to play castrated games.

CGN = Castrated Generator of Numbers

Mr./Ms. RCA1952,

I agree. I want to see real, physical lotto balls, EACH PRECISELY MEASURED for weight, if not already done.

No reason a 33 ball should be less balanced and weigh more than a 1 ball.

But, I'm almost sure those details have been addressed.

I don't want to see CGNs anywhere in my Lotto.

Lotteries were first tied directly to the United States in 1612, when King James I (1566-1625) of England created a lottery to provide funds to Jamestown, Virginia, the first permanent British settlement in North America. Lotteries were used by public and private organizations after that time to raise money for towns, wars, colleges, and public works projects.

Upgrade for whom? Certainly not the lottery players. I would expect better things of out of Canada, not this type of nonsense.

The Canadian people will not allow the computer number generator to replace the number balls!!! And the U.S. should band together to stop the use of it also! I'm waiting to see a scandal in Washington State because of the greed it has for money. Alot of people want the ball's brought back and not the C.N.G....LET'S STAND TOGETHER AND VOICE OUR CONCERN

Lottery Post — Fri, 06 May 2016 14:59:03 GMT

By Todd Northrop

Canada's British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) in order to expand and improve its ability to conduct computerized lottery drawings.

While the lottery may view a new computerized drawing system as a step-up for the organization, lottery players may feel differently. In the United States, computerized drawings are the basis for the biggest scandal to ever rock the lottery industry.
