Hoosier Lottery pulls Space Invaders scratch-off game after players are denied $100k prize matchesReply
It's Indiana lottery and the maker of the tickets error pay up. Looking at that photo of the scratch off I would have known it was some kind of error because how do you win 100k and $5 on the same ticket. Either way with the class action they will get some money which is better than nothing. It sucks to get that feeling and have it snatched away.

The coding error blocking repeat digits like 111 or 229 in DC 3, 4, and 5 draws from March 31 to April 21 wiped out roughly 27% of combos in DC 3 alone (since 10^3=1,000 total minus 720 unique-digit ones), which is why sharp LP folks caught the stats anomaly so fast.

The FACT is that if the lottery (and all the other lotteries that previously made this same mistake) had used traditional ball drawings, this error would never have happened. I believe this is why two months down the life we don't have a second prize Millionaire For Life winner when we are having them on both PB and MM frequently.
