Nun hoped to win lotteryReply
Interesting story. She lived a long life. Regarding the link, here is one person who won praying to win money to give to the Catholic church and as she stated, to stop abortion, and another winner (if you remember Bunky) prayed to win enough to quit working so he could spend his time teaching Wicca. I think it's wonderful to want to help your church or synogogue, or feel passionate about a cause, but I believe these people won simply because they were lucky enough to pick the winning ticke

Record powerball lottery winner reflects on sad lifeReply
I don't necessarily feel sorry for him either, based on some of his behavior. You point out he got robbed a few times in front of a strip club, but he also had hundreds of thousands in cash in his vehicle. Who keeps that much money in cash in their car? Not a smart thing to do. I also read an interview with him, I wish I could find it, where he basically said he could tell everyone to kiss off. It's referenced in the Wikipedia article about him. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Whitt

Record powerball lottery winner reflects on sad lifeReply
No. Common sense vanished when folks started listening to one-sided views of reality and stopped checking out things for themselves (or applying a little common sense). The McDonald's case is a good example. Did you know that this store intentionally prepared the coffee to such an extreme temperature that no rational person would even think about taking it into their car if they knew about it; that the store had been repeatedly warned about it. Did you know that this woman did not just burn

Info On RNG'S
This is from a post on the tennessean.com web page about RNG'S with some links to other sites that pertain to the article. I didn't write this, that person is listed at the bottm.

Mega Millions Won :-(Reply
Not that I track numbers--I'm pretty new to most of this and have only started thinking outside the box since finding LP--but a recent post from RJOh got me thinking about number groupings and their distribution. There are many stat and computer people on this site who could either confirm (or refute) my thoughts but RJ pointed out how infrequent a distribution of winning JP numbers when clustered over 30 (like last Tuesday's MM nonwinning draws were) and therefore, presumably any cluste

Tennessee Lottery computerized drawings flawed since inceptionReply
I agree, but I don't think it was even their RNG. It was just an incredibly BAD programming error, which should have EASILY been caught. Obviously, the Tennessee Lottery did NOT do any semblance of due diligence on the new draw system, or it would have been caught, as the article states. I'll bet that the RNG did not spit out any doubles or triples because it was setup exactly like the Pick 5 game, in which it is not allowed to draw duplicates. So all they did is change the possible number

UK Lottery operator plans $500 million global lottery gameReply
Logic The article stated that The overall size of the annual jackpot will be dictated by the number of countries that decide to take part in the competition. Camelot will most likely go after states and countries with large populations and/or high lottery sales. In my opinion most southern states with a lottery will not make the cut and some Powerball states will not make the cut. Some Mega millions states will not make the cut. So you are left with states in the Northeast, some in

UK Lottery operator plans $500 million global lottery gameReply
As long as there's no federal prohibition against it the choice will be up to individual states, or the federal government could decide to offer it. The people who run PB and MM would be free to lobby against it, but they don't get to make the decision. Let's assume that for every dollar spent on the proposed lottery a dollar doesn't get spent on MM or PB. If the state sells that ticket, how does that reduce their income from ticket sales? If they keep 50 cents on the dollar, they'll make

Hoosier LotteryReply
RJ, The point of the lawsuit is that the Hoosier Lottery did exactly that. They published false and misleading information in order to entice people to buy tickets for a game where the prizes didn't exist. According to the article in the Fort Wayne Observer...the Hoosier Lottery advertised over $8 million in prizes available for the Cash Blast game. They sold 5 million tickets at $10 each for a total $50 million in ticket sales. In total they paid out less than $1 million in prizes on t
