  I myself don't predict anymore at least I have not for some years I think, except for a few times every now and then.

  Maybe you should keep it just for pick 3 and boxed.

  You need to say if for all states or for one state, or What?

  5 combos if this is for all states or 20 combos if it is just for one state.

  Too bad that I can't do this, I am not into predicting at this time, but there are so many others.

  Take the pick 3 boxed:

  220 combos:

  10 Triples

  90 Doubles

  120 Singles

  Points should be kept by money spent versus money won = - or + balance.

  For $1

  Triples pay $500

  Doubles pay $160

  Singles pay $80

  If people sometime win straight, it should only count as boxed as they can't tell when they will win straight and when boxed.

  Otherwise it should only count when they win straight and not boxed.

  -------

  Good Luck!

  To keep it simple, give more points for str hit, and less points for box hits, and no points for no hit. Must warn you, keeping track of scores can be time consuming. So just congrats the winners at the end of the day should be good enough.

  Latern metioned 5 combos for all day, all states which is a good amount.

  See on the left column where it says Predictions.  Lottery Post has been running a Prediction contest for roughly 8 years.  There is no need to try and cobble together a contest and keep score when the site already handles it for any and all who care to post predictions. 
  
  Before you take this any further, sit down with a cup of coffee and go over how the Prediction portion of this web site works, the different ways you can see who's ahead, in profit, etc. 
  
  If your goal is to find something that works, restricting it isn't the way to go.  There are days you play 5 numbers and days you play 25.

  Can't seem to find the info on prediction about the cost of each combo, is it $0.50 or $1, and if it's for all day then that would be $2 (mid and eve). I am thinking it's $0.50 per combo, since the payout for box is $40.

  Click "Post Predictions" in the Predictions menu.  It's listed at the bottom under the heading "Instructions for entering your picks".
