Probably never gave it a second thought, but as we are plopping down our couple of bucks for some QP's, there may be some very sophisticated wagering going on throughout our universe.

Be curious to know what type's of monetary systems exist, how the wagering takes place,....... if any?

Don't worry.......I'm not going to ask the question if anyone would be interested in playing some intergalactic lottery games.

I would get hammered!

Maybe we would learn from them? I know I've had some rough patch's recently.

Probably they mastered the art of pattern recognition and lottery would be a thing of the past.

Excellent conclusion. If they could see our petty little games, there would be great alien laughter for many eons.

When I saw the thread title, before I looked to see who started it I was sure this was one of pumpi's threads!

Anyone else?

mcginnin56,

Closer than you think. The ancient Egyptians were no doubt aliens and what we call hieroglyphics were a formula from an alien language for breaking 'the code'.

Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any. So many systems, so many theories, so few jackpot winners.

There is one and only one 'proven' system, and that is to book the action. No matter the game, let the players pick their own losers.

Reminds me of the cult series "Stargate" very intriguing....to say the least!

the concept of the stargate is how we might one day travel to other planets. and quite possibly how the aliens traveled here.

"Don't worry.......I'm not going to ask the question if anyone would be interested in playing some intergalactic lottery games."

They gave up on lottery games for thousands of years. But with the creation of the inter net on earth and their ability to tap into it and seeing earths unique lotteries they now play again. Of course they use the lottery draws here on earth for results. Lottery post is their primary source of results as Lottery Post carries all the states lottery results.

if every alien just chips in $1...

i think if aliens have inter stellar travel they will have quantim physics tought at highschool level.

and umm random number generators will have to be a lot more complex. maybe somehow related to the time it takes the female of species, to get decide what to wear when going out.

" Still swinging, still missing "
2014 = -1016; 2015= -1409; 2016 = -1171; 2017 = -1257 ; 2018 = - 1380 = TOT = - 6233

keno historic = -2291 ; 2015= -603; 2016= -424; 2017 =-427; 2018= -223 TOT = -3968

Good one; certainly would be appropriate for the time it took female humanoid's.

Space lottery? You've seen the cartoon at the top of this page, right?

Lottoaddict's post is currently about 8 down from the top of the page, his avitar looks more like a demon to me.

Space aliens only want our women, our money is worthless, all the money (backed by gold and oil) on our planet wouldn't pay for a space taxi ride back to galaxy central.

Nice!!! Where did you find that?

Odd's of one in 2.3 Quintillion, seems just about right for intergalactic wagers.

Hat's off to you Bob.

Where did I find it, can't remember, but the cartoon links to the artist's website with a click on it.
