Sign the petition - eliminate computerized drawings!Reply
I guess we have a different definition of the word fact . You're saying it's a fact that computers are as random as a ball machine? That's the argument that says if it quacks like a duck, then it is a duck. However, I don't think the common (read: non-scientific) citizen cares that a scientific formula was used to prove that a computer can simulate the randomness of a ball machine. They care much more about real drawings.Being in the position that I am (not merely a programmer, although t

getting back to an old topic RNG controlledReply
lottobrain, very glad to read your perspective! Regarding your sentence, Suppose that they had found a way to actually program daily numbers into the RNG program to come out on specific days... , Eddie Tipton did that, and it's extremely well documented at Lottery Post. He did that on computers like the ones you described in Delaware. They all claim to be not connected to the internet, but that does not stop an insider. Here is the complete timeline of news stories documented at Lottery
