  I didn't know you could draw your own tickets? Isn't that illegal?

  Never knew time was a factor......Tell me why you think it matters what time? and why 5:30 a.m. matters? If you would please...

  Not as long as you are a certified Artist sanctioned by the state lottery commission.

  Timing is everything, one second before or after, could mean losing those winning numbers. (QP's)

  I have read of members employing this element as a part of their overall lottery strategy and this is utilized primarily by the QPers. There is a school of thought that last minute plays work best. I don't know that any in this grouping has ever bothered to track their success in this regard or it remains all anecdotal.

   

  The time I play varies from day to day depending on when I get around to my meditation combined with how long it takes for me to decend from the 7th realm with the lucky numbers for the day.

  If by draw you meant buy then no one has researched it.  As long as you buy them before the terminals shut down for the particular drawing you want them for, you're probably OK.  The times can vary by state and game.

   * you don't need to buy every combination, just the winning ones *

  Why not try 5:30pm if 5:30am isn't working for you?

  I don't believe there is a 'better time' for putting your bets in...a better way but not a better time. It's either a winner

  or it's not..doesn't matter if it is 12am, 3pm or 11pm UNLESS of course you are running late, then you better get

  them in before cut off time.....that is the only time a 'better time' would apply - when you should have gotten them

  in 5 minutes earlier.

  I myself was thinking that time might matter, when I won  little sum after getting ticket at 8:30 PM. If lottery company adjusts the results, then those tickets that got in after work day is over, can have chance of not being selected out, because no one is at the office! That could be one reason. Another reason could be that they favor customers that will potentially buy more  tickets, so those are mostly people who works, and they buy tickets after work day is over. In both cases I believe they have method of concocting their own combination. Why do I think this: because by random chance there could be on occasion 200 or 300 or more people at once guessing winning combination. This never happens, and this never happens because the divided  sum becomes so small, it is discouraging and other people then do not buy as many tickets. It is one person winning huge amount of money what is attractive and enticing, and then even the poorest invest their dollar, without realizing that profits are made off of people who spends $1, because they practically never win (percentage vise). Because of it, I say, never play $1, spend $10 at once or play with the group.
