Iowa Lottery CEO Terry Rich answers your questionsReply
Hello all LP members, *Sigh* It is too bad and someone made an excellent point in the form of a question. Something like, Are the RNG's (computerized drawings) for the benefit of the lottery staff, or for the benefit of the players? Yes, I thought the whole idea was for player enjoyment. It seems that Mr. Rich made that sort of clear in one answer where he claims RNG's are here to stay. The problem is that almost everyone that actually PLAYS the lottery would feel more secure seeing b

Missouri Goes To Computer Generated DrawsReply
Here is the reply I received from the Missouri lottery, they pretty much repeat the press release to justify their actions as if I hadn't read it. Please take a minute to visit http://www.molottery.state.mo.us/ and use the contact form to let them know these fake drawings are not wanted by real lottery players.

computerized drawings set to take over the lottery in a few years?
i never thought i'd say this a couple years ago or even a year ago.but it looks to me that maybe in a few years time that we will see the end of ball drawings as we know it.tennessee lasted three whole years before bowing out to computerized draws.then before that you had missouri biting the dust about the time tennessee came along.you have hot lotto going from balls to computers and MUSL defended this decision.these are the same people who run powerball.once powerball or mega millions goes RNG

Fixed LotteriesReply
I voted some....that being the computerized drawings...just don't trust them....easier to manipulate. But that being said , why would any state want to kill the golden goose by doing so? the only examples of rigging were employees doing so to win big money, and they got busted by their states and did time in jail. Here in Michigan, they change ball sets every so often and that seems to help change the patterns, but I think they try to protect the integrity of the 3 and 4 digit in particular. I d

getting feedback about computerized drawings
computerized draws are not equal to ball drawings.go look at the state report card if you have questions about if your state is RNG or not.for those who live in a computerized state do you feel like you have just a good a chance as people who live in ball drawn states? those who are against it should sign the petition here on the lottery discussion page.its always been a mystery about what goes on behind the scenes in computerized states.for instance everyone knows indiana is about as straight

question about tennessee lotto 5 drawingsReply
Whew! I guess I don't need that second shot of whiskey afterall! Having signed the petition to eliminate computerized drawings, I guess I go up in smoke whenever I see the word computerized. You're right about computerized meaning you have to purchase the ticket on a computer terminal (on line), but whenever I see it in a discussion about a lottery game, I automatically go into eliminate computerized drawings mode!One thing is curious though - when you go to the TN Lottery web site's main page

N.C. computerized drawings - who will guard against?
I'm wondering which Lottery Post member will be the first to get their letter to the editor published in a major North Carolina newspaper.There needs to be a major letter-writing campaign to all the N.C. newspapers, blanketing the state, to ensure that every citizen and every representative is aware of this issue, and makes it clear that computerized drawings are not acceptible.Here is a list of North Carolina newspapers I tracked down:The Charlotte ObserverWinston-Salem JournalNews Observer

very important poll-computer drawsReply
Here's to keeping ball/machine drawings over computerized drawings.That said, in my opinion, there is little difference in ball/machine randomness and computer randomness. Whatever is unique within either type drawing platform remains domainly consistent.However, consider all the different ball/machine combinations that Florida utilizes within the Florida Fantasy 5 drawing platform. Total chaos is created within the established lottery pool continuously because of massive ball/machine switching.

ball drawings vs. computer drawingsReply
I'm not sure. I realize a lot of people are against computerized drawings. But I'm new to this issue. Before I make a definate say, I want to inspect both sides. The one thing I have read is usually people chase hot numbers, and that with computerized drawings, people will be chasing cold numbers. I have no idea. That's just what I read. If anyone has more on that, please expand upon it. Thank you.PS. How many states in the USA hold computerized drawings now... and what about internationally?
