ain't it a shame.i had a wierd feeling when they had new drawing times and the tv drawings contract ran out that something 'different' would happen.but talk about a shock,lol.this tennesee lottery was pretty damn well run and a pretty good one to play too.but i'll have to respectfully retire from playing tennessee if this takes place.she died way too young........

TN knows where the money is - the die-hard players that'll play every game without regard for nuisance things like integrity.

Tnplayer805 — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 17:58:03 GMT

There will still be winners with RNG but to me and a lot of other players that is a huge loss in integrity and takes all the fun out of the games.

you are right about million madness and play it again because i didnt win anything on either of those and i wasnt close on million madness. i won cash 4 years ago but i dont have a chance of winning at any game if they go to rng

Tnplayer805 — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 06:01:04 GMT

If we can't stop it I will simply drive to GA for Fantasy 5. Plain and simple. Oh yeah, I'll play Powerball in TN but good bye Cash 3 and 4 as well as Lotto 5. I may even buy a scratchoff too but since I'm in GA I might just play theirs. After all, they have a lot of the same games we have in TN.

I actually kind of had a hint they would do this. With million $ madness and the recent play it again drawings they used a computer to randomly pick the winners. I guess it's easier on them t... [ More ]

I finally got the video working. I had to change a setting. Choose Midday drawing after clicking the link to see all 3 fake drawings.

Best of Luck TN,

MO is another one of those states doing that Jimmy. It is really sad... The only bonus to it is you see the ball rolling end over end but when it starts getting down to the end of the chute the ball straightens itself out. No more having to read them upside down or sideways. lol.

It is so lame.

Check it out for yourself. MO drawing

I tried to view one myself but it kept kicking me out. You all may have better luck.

Some computerized states, Louisiana and Minnesota are couple, actually televise those cartoons masquarading as drawings.

An exciting new way to hold drawings using the latest in automated technology, joining numerous lotteries throughout the country that use similar computerization

That's Marketing gibberish for It's exciting because it saves us money and we won't have to broadcast the drawings any more .

If it goes like Wisconsin did, it will be a lot tougher to hit the P3 or P4 without spending the farm. Unfortunately, this is the future way of things. Going to RNG doesn't seem to affect the Bottom Line... [ More ]

Haha, funny you posted the pic of Rebecca, JoshuaCloak. Just the other month I was looking up numbers and decided to visit the 'Winners' page. As I sat here looking at the pics, I was thinking to myself that if I ever won... I was NOT going to let her be in my pic. Just something about her screams Homecoming Queen gone bad .

I just sent my email also and told them I would boycott and try to get everyone else to do the same.

I should have known something was up when they changed the draw break times. RNG draws always have earlier draw breaks than ball drawings.

I never thought I would see the day Becca would want to go to RNG. She's been in the business for a long time and should know better! I guess she'll find out the hard way when people boycott her games.

Yep. It has hit $1 million and been over 1/2 million several times! I love that game but not if it goes to RNG. I would rather drive to GA

I don't know if there's a plus side to it, but Tn. Lotto-5 has never been over a Million, as far as I know.

I sure am used to seeing it get won all the time though
