I didn't know how to get a link from my blog, but this is in response to an email I sent NCEL about the way the numbers were falling and the response or the lack thereof that they gave me in return. Now below I highlighted some things that should be questioned. And I am sure we could debate all day about what the NCEL does and doesn't do right in each of our eyesight and that is fine. I know some may say well we say it's rigged or what not when we are not winning I say the same thing when I am winning. Again playing the lottery you are taking a chance at a win. I am sure I will get a ton of replies in my PM and I can/will answer them for you.
Thank you for sending us your question.
The North Carolina Education Lottery plans to have Pick 4 in late spring of this year.
The security and integrity of all of our games are of utmost importance. Many steps are taken to ensure the integrity. The 4’s has not been removed from the balls.
An external auditor is present at everydrawing, (Pick 3, Cash 5 & Powerball) and the ball set and draw machine are randomly selected before each drawing in the presence of the auditor. Tests are conducted before and after the live drawing, and the draw team reviews the numbers selected to sure that there are no patterns or sequences of numbers. If repeat numbers are noted, the ball set will be replaced andthreeadditional testswill be conducted. If at anytime during the draw process the external auditor notes anything at all that concerns them, they can call the drawing foul and a new drawing will be conducted with a new ball set and new draw machine. The ball sets are weighed and checked periodically and there are back-up sets that can replace anyball set that the draw team or auditor has concerns about. Again, the integrity of our games is very important to the NC Education Lottery.
Thank you for playing.

Thanks Pls., that is what I was talking about when I posted that I had heard about them changing something once in awhile and couldn't remember what it was.
I don't know if it makes a difference or not when they do that in which balls fall or not but thanks for posting what the lottery said about it.....I knew I had read it somewhere.
I do know that there is a difference in what is falling this month than last month and it probably (is just random) but still it was bothering me about what I had heard and now we know what it was.
I agree with the fact that you have to look back at what has fallen before and how many pairs of certain ones etc. & figure out a pattern of sorts.
That is the only way I have got 17 hits since 12-31-08 and believe me I have tried everything I can get my hands on to read & searched the internet and even ordered a book and was so disppointed in it that I complained to them and they gave me a credit on my credit card.
But each to his own about what works for them & lets keep it fun....as I think it was Reddog said it's a hobby of mine and I dearly love it & can't wait until pick 4 comes.
I don't by any means think it's rigged and didn't mean to insinuate that when I was mentioning about hearing about the machines being reset or something done to them but Pls. cleared that up.

You guys are all cool that post on here!
Hello Crow, ....welcome to the pick 3 forum on Lottery Post!
Thanks for saying we're cool....as you can see we have some lively discussions from time to time & that's good so we can give each other our opinions and nobody takes it personally.
I wish we could all get together at a big round table and talk about it...boy would we really have some fun then...

That is alot of numbers. I wouldn't think anyone would just play them all. I think its wise to compare them to your own workouts and pull that winner out!!! Great job Bigtyme!!! Are you in the lead now?

That is never a problem for me bigtyme32. I know how to interpret big groups of numbers and that's one of the many keys to winning often, play enough of the right numbers to win often. I like your list and I hope you continue to post them after your face-off/challenge with AVLM is over!!!
