The thing to remember when dealing with randomness: The complete absence of any strange coincidence would be much stranger than any coincidence could ever be.

Yea strange but I have seen it before .. About 9 months ago I was off one didget on every number selected on the mega millions And the mega ball was 12 and I had 11 ! Little different but thought I would share that I saved the ticket to remind myself that I can and will win someday

Geez pick. Really???

Anytime someone has a difference of opinion, or there is a discussion on a thread and YOU start with the hater BS. I reread the thread and I just can't find any hate, or even the word hate.

It's ok to have a difference of opinion, and when there is, it's not hate. How about we reverse that and just say that YOU are the hater hating on people you don't agree with

Looks strange to me, however your haters are hating that you're pointing it out though. I find it real hard to believe those balls just pop up at random, look at the difference between the numbers people.

If this didn't happen, people would be saying it's strange it never happens. And remember, the numbers on the balls are meaningless when it comes to what balls are selected. That ball with a 50 on it could just as easily be a ball with 10 on it.

I'm really not in the mood to look it up again, but a while back I posted a selection of numbers that show various types of patterns. In a truly random numbered ball selection system, it would be expected that those types of patterns will exist... [ More ]

To get perspective, I go to the beach. I turn to the left and then to the right taking in miles and miles of pure white sand. Selecting the right number is like selecting the right grain of sand. You cannot look at what seems to be some developing pattern and think you're on to something. This matrix is still fairly new. And again, any thing can happen at any time. It's what makes the game random. This explains why more QPs win more often. People who select their own numbers assemble combination... [ More ]

Some people just can't fathom just how many combinations there are in MM. Or the other jackpot games as well. I used to think there were sets of numbers that were not likely to come out . Well, I threw that theory out the window some time ago.

We have a little game here called Texas 2 Step. Pick 4 numbers out of 35. Then 1 bonus number out of 35. Odds are 1 in 1,832,600. Seems easy enough. Someone hits every few draws. I hardly ever win anything on that game. It's deceiving how hard it is. Th... [ More ]

No combination can be considered strange , it's one of the 285 million right? How is it strange? Because the numbers are higher

I've gotten to a point to whar I firmly believe :

you can build any kind of machine they use ,have a 1001 sets of ping pong balls they use and still never figure out the mystery of the seemingly infinite combinations nore why the balls come out the way they do

No. Any set of numbers can come out at any time.
