It seems like everyone likes their OWN way of picking # and the majority of time is spent saying their "system" is the best there is out there.....nobody really likes to share ideas or tactics openly (surprisingly for p3 since there is no pot to be split with others), no meaningful conclusions are reached because the majority of time topics go off topic, people don't like when they are being corrected when they say smth illogical etc...also 90% of posts here daydream about spending their jackpots, cars, vacations and what they would say at press conference....nothing wrong with discussing stuff like that because its good to learn stuff especially the legal info (lawyers, how to claim, ticket security etc)....but the other stuff is majorly repetitive and complete BS in my opinion...thats why people here never win anything serious....(maybe one or two exceptions)...stuck with same old methods that don't produce any results, daydreaming and bragging about sh1t that doesn't work 99% of the time....It is time to start keeping it real and to see reality for what it is worth...otherwise if luck doesn't intervene all the posters here will never see that elusive big win they are dreaming everyday about...we can all learn from each other instead of wasting valuable time discussing nothing....On the other hand i'm not saying you should share all the powerball #s or the fantasy 5 # you will play on your ticket tonight...but for P3 and other talk the sharing of ideas and the keeping it real should get more air time vs. the daydream and illogical nonsense...

For a lengthy period of time I presented a pick 5 system on my blog, and tracked some individual states in the pick 5 forum. There were some good and not so good comments regarding what I was trying to accomplish. Some understood a little of what was occuring, some didn't understand it at all. There were incouragements from those that seemed to adapt to what was being presented, and some negativism from a few that couldn't grasp it. After a thorough bashing from one idiot who couldn't understand at all, which caused Todd to remove his thread, I decided to run a poll.
The poll and some of the comments can be viewed here:

What I am trying to project is this - during the entire time my system was being presented, there was very few if any questions asked to try and amplify why this or why that was occuring.
My expertise is in statistical process control and manufacturing management. Much of my personal success has been in tutoring individuals to a higher level of accomplishment by providing sensible answers and follow up to their questions.
When there is a total lack of questions provided in any new situation, there will always be very slow, if any, progress in implementation.

In your poll you posted as one of the possible answers : "Wish it would just go away"- referring to your cash 5 system. When a person voted that as their answer you then preceded on to call them a Pot Head.
Quote: Well, we dropped our pants for inspection, the votes are all in, and you know what? I'm kind of pleased with the results! The only one that's going to get pissed off is the one that voted for "wishing it would just go away", cause for now anyway, it ain't! Now, take that, pot head!!
And then at the end of the post you stated: "Thanks to all the ones that voted favorably, and the rest of you...get a life and learn how to study!"
Would you like some cheese to go with that whine? No wonder people respond to you as they do! You come across as arrogant, pompous, and better than thou!
Why do you need other people to approve of you? Or to understand your concepts? I have some bad news for you, everyone is not going to approve of you or understand you and or your concepts, and way of thinking and if that is what you want to get your jollies off, then you will be sadly disappointed! It appears that you want some sort of attention that you are not getting, and when you don't you whine about it and blame others for your short comings, by insulting their intelligence! Further more some people just don't want to learn what you are trying to teach, so therefore, why try and shove it down their throats?
Then you say here that no one has learned or benefited from this post. Well what is your point of this post anyway?, but you telling people how they should think, feel, and act towards a new system? As far as I can see no one that responded to this post has distorted your words at all! You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them drink. Remember that!
Thanks Blackapple, your a good person that means well and intends no harm towards anyone.
I shouldn't have posted those "learning principles" here.
When someone lays out their own personal philosophies on an open forum such as this, they can expect to get their teeth kicked in like I just did a couple of replys above yours.
Keep up the good things you do here my man, you are highly respected for your talent and ingenuity.

Lots of LP members share their ideas about playing lotteries. As a far as I know, none of them have ever resulted in anyone winning a big prize so there no reason one should be given any more attention than another.
I have ideas and have shared them but I enjoy reading about what others are trying. When something looks interesting, I may comment but mostly I just read them.
When you post on a form like LP, you expose your ideas to players who have been playing and losing lotteries for years so it's likely some of them have seen similar ideas posted before and aren't interested in learning more but new players coming to LP every day are interested so continue posting if that's what you enjoy. It's no big deal if everyone doesn't respond.
