Official wants fraud probe of Tennessee LotteryReply
from the article: A lottery depends on its integrity, and so, you always want to rule that out,'' Ripley said in a telephone interview Monday. I have seen absolutely no evidence of fraud at this point.'' _________________________________________ Isn't that the problem? Isn't that our POINT??? When mechanical drawings are compromised, everyone can see it; when computer drawings are purposely sabotaged, no one can see it except a programmer who scrutinizes the code line b

Lottery winner goes from rags to riches to ragsNews Story
For David Lee Edwards, winning the lottery was a wild rocket ride In the fall of 2006, David Lee Edwards and his wife, Shawna, decorated their front door for Halloween. But if trick-or-treaters made it to the couple's home, a storage unit in Riviera Beach, no plastic ghost was as scary as what they'd have found inside: two pale, withered junkies from Kentucky living amid dirty clothes, rotting food, and their own filth. And these were lottery winners. Today, with David on what could be

tennessee RNG is hell.grrrrrrrrReply
I have no doubt the balls a real, and that they can be tested and all that. That is not what I was questioning. I also concede that the code can be manipulated. But what I'm asking is for someone to tell me that by rotating the tubes, and doing pretests, that the natural flow of the outcome of certain numbers within that tube are not being affected. Of course they are. For just one example of many more, Let's say within the tube position one, the number 8 has been out for 60 days. Why d

The truth we hope to tell you all.Reply
I'm missing the poker part... Also, the chart provided for the UK game (the only one I clicked on from the geocities site) is more than a bit confusing. Your link for the Pigeon-hole principle is busted too, here is the working link for the wiki article Pigeonhole Principle If what you are doing is a genuine attempt at offering free info with no bait-and-switch or eventual fees, maybe I can work with you to make a more readable excel chart, and maybe even apply it to some of the

Lottery Winner's Lucky Day Turns into One Heck of a MessReply
Imagine you just found out you won $25,000 in the lottery. You get a receipt but in your haste, you actually leave the ticket at the store. Disagree. In fact, if she got a receipt for the winning ticket after validation, how did the clerks cash it in at Lottery Headquarters? I'm not stupid, but am I missing something here? When you scan a ticket, doesn't it have a bar code that is read? Then the terminal indicates winner or no winner so how can it be scanned and processed A

Lottery scams hard to resist for someReply
If I won money and drove to the Lottery Office, I certainly would expect to complete paperwork, show ID and have the 25% tax deducted. In Ohio and in most states when you win $600 up to $5000, any lottery terminal agent can validate the ticket, fill out a form, and give you a voucher that you take to a designated bank for payment. Taxes are not deducted. The bank charges a $10 processing fee and that's what I meant about the Teller having no common sense because she wanted the 10 bucks befo

Ethics or NotReply
This reminds me of a well known expression: No good deed goes unpunished. Clare Booth Luce We all know what is in our hearts and more than often, what a person decides is the just moral thing to do is often very subjective. Often the final decision is between him, his spiritual counselor and God. The Law is something entirely different. Although it's supposed to be designed by men women of moral fortitude, I admit there's lots of room for improvement. However everyday we use it

Mega Millions - How many tickets do you have ?Reply
Well, now that I've officially purchased tickets for this drawing about 10 minutes ago... the jackpot is guaranteed to be hit. Not by me, by someone else. Since that seems to be the curse I have on lotteries. Whenever I play, it doesn't roll and I don't win. In case my curse has been lifted, I read an article that said if the jackpot rolls tonight that it will be set at 470 million for friday. I think it would be set a lot higher than that. Oh well. In conclusion my conversation
