I just release my will to the universe and allow the universe to fill in the playslips through it's divine nature in accordance with the yin and yang of the ethos.

But it never does.

So I just get quick picks instead.

Cuz you see, the universe is a beyotch.

And next time I'm gonna kick it's ass.

No, you don't mess with me, man.

Before I retired in '98, I once filled out 50 play slips for Ohio's Super Lotto. I had some luck picking numbers using a computer program I wrote matching four once in while so when the jackpot got really large one of my co-workers asked if I could come up 500 lines for him to play. He said he thought he could get enough guys together to buy them if they knew there weren't any duplications in them so I did and we each made out 50 play slips. When I got done I promised myself I would never do tha... [ More ]

If your making out 50 slips at a time to play the lottery the pen is not the problem...PS..After making out all those slips save them so you don't have to make out the next time.....Walllaaa case solved..

Given 5 games per playslip that's 250 sets of numbers.

Sounds like a possible case for GA, if you're actually playing them all. If it's some means of tracking, there's better ways.

Good Luck.

Yes, there is. Cutoff times for posting predictions are an hour before the drawings and most games except PowerBall can be played up to 15-30 minutes before the drawings.

If you have 50 slips to fill up, yes. With thin pencils or pen it take atleast a few strokes to mark the box properly. I want the one stroke method. I guess a big-tipped pen should work.

Isn't there a cutoff window between prediction posting and the drawing time

Those flat pencils carpenters use are very good also. They have a wide, flat lead in them.

Sharpie -Permanent Marker- Fine Point=one stroke mark.

Good Luck.

It's not a matter of being hard but of preference, I like using a marker. If one was looking for easy, they could just buy a quick pick and skip using a play slip at all. I don't like even using a pencil to doodle, I prefer a gel ink pen with a 0.7mm point.

I guess we are old school Tiggs, If this becomes an issue, I am most certain the government will form an oversight committee, lobbyist will rear their ugly heads, and we will need to spend surplus money to study, print pamplets, hire helpers, and eventually fill the playslips out for inky challenged players. Its only fair.

If you post your predictions too late for someone to jump in their car and go play it, who are you helping??

Players complain members predict too many combinations to be of any help? Besides, most predictors couldn't afford to play all of what they post so I assume they're predicting for bragging rights not to help anyone.

I use a Bic permanent marker. Works great, just don't have anything of value under the playslip

I like a BIC or Sharpie fine point permanent marker but they do bleed though on what ever is below the play slip being marked. You only have to touch the center of the square lightly as the bleeding will finish filling out the square.

If using a marker, it makes a difference what state you're in.

If it's Tennessee, make sure you don't have any other playslips below the one you're marking or you'll be marking about 35 slips at a time because the new playslips are like toilet paper.

Calligraphy pens are great. They have an angle and are flat and come in difference width.

Stationary store, get some Sharpie Med Point black pen like Permanent Markers (not the dollar store imitations). Store tip down so the ink is at the working end when you're ready to use it. I prefer the Fine Point and make two lines one down one up like a closed V, don't have to fill the box, better not to have the ink bleed outside the box, also mark tickets on something you don't mind the ink getting on from the back of the play slip as it bleeds through, though once dry never comes off most t...

does anyone here know of a pen with big tip to fill bet slips easier with one stroke? it turns out some of the bet slip printing software products are not so perfect. I use Lotto Pro's. I had to make my own adjustments but then again everytime the printer sucks the bet slips for printing it gets out of place. Now I think it's the printer
