About those NC Digital Online Games...What's the verdict?
I asked the search engine about NC digital instant games and what money they take in vs what money they pay out. I asked the question b/c the games seem to just take your money and never give you anything substantial. Below is the response, but I am having trouble believing that they pay out 87% of proceeds. Nonetheless, I do believe the part that says that even though they are taking in more $$ with these games, that they are contributing less to the education system than they did before the di

$1.7 BILLION: Will Powerball create a Christmas billionaire?Reply
One thing I truly miss is bump up to the jackpot like in the good old days. Gone for good I'd say. Considering that they've done it 4 times in the last 4 months it hardly seems like it no longer happens. Changing to 3 drawings per week has a minor effect, but the real issue is that lottery sales per drawing are generally slower than they used to be. Even so, the current PB run is a rare exception (as of now) for not bumping some of the jackpots for runs that made it past the billion dollar

Lottery Numbers Aren't Meant To Be RandomReply
So...why you think lottery officials pre-test if the numbers suppose to be random to begin with? And I already debated and established that it has nothing to do with making sure the machine working properly. I've given this some thought. They really don't need to run any pre-tests. If the machine has a mechanical malfunction, it won't show up as the thing produces the same set of winning numbers over and over (assuming they load all the balls, not just 5 of them, and then pick 5, that would

Powerball jackpot hits $1 billion after building for monthsReply
Is $50 to much to spend or u go by ur heart? It's not too much if you save the money from all the drawings offering less than $1 billion and spend it on the first drawing for $1 billion or more. What happens if it rolls, though? PB only reached $1 billion once this year up until now. The first time there were 4 drawings for $1 billion or more. So far this run has been slower to get the big increases, and based on the most recent worksheet there's a 56% chance it will roll 3 more times*, so

Florida's Fantasy 5Reply
it's not simply just hot and cold numbers. I have a lot, a lot of calculations and methods and systems all running together in the background. I'm constantly working on it. I'm also making it pretty much autopilot as well. Lottery results have trends and trends shift. We could go one draw with all singles/low balls, for like 2 or 3 draws in a row. Or it could be one draw, then shift to all hight balls in 20's - 30's. My system tries to adapt to trends, and predicts based on history. Yo

I got my first ever phone that wasn't low end $150ish or less ... a Pixel 9. I have had cheap crappy Samsung phones and a couple Motorola ones that were not bad and that one Chinese brand now banned in America...Huawei. all were low end That Chinese spy phone was honestly the best one overall, but it had one annoying glitch like every other phone I ever had. Every one has at least one thing that was a pain in my butthole. So I finally decided F it because my last 2 Samsungs were honestl

More than just the Full Aries Super Harvest Moon
Good Morning LP Family! Perhaps you've noticed the abundance of 6's and 9's recently. Or 1's. Or repeats. Or double-doubles in the P3 and P4? Shift is about to happen... think the visual and sound of heavy safe tumblers falling into place as the key (combination) makes contact. Click or Clang - either way it's a good thing. Depending on where you live, almost midnight Monday or predaybreak Tuesday, the Aries Full Harvest Moon will peak. Also up for attention is Mercury moving to Scorpio. Mar

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
I have been negotiating with Lady Luck about my upcoming Powerball All In adventure for a while now. At first she seemed to be a bit reluctant in helping me win the Big One citing some ethical concerns about others asking her for the same thing and she should not play favorites or have *everybody* win the jackpot. But JustMaybe, you changed that a little bit. She told me about your conversation when you told her to ignore me, and that she is really miffed with you and is not going to do as y

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
is anyone going to bother with Mega Millions tonight? Even without PB being a bit more than 3 times as big MM is still well shy of my entry point, given the price and odds. I'm thinking some time in October is when I'll get in the game, assuming it's still rolling (and it probably will be). Under the prior ticket pricing structure I would have purchased my usual 1 ticket per drawing. Sorry to tell you but: They. Don't. Care. No tickets for me under any circumstances but am cu
