OK ... well I dont claim to be great at this or better than anybody or anything, and I am a very posititive person........ and my posts have been doing pretty well and I have had people ask for me to post and for help .... (except lately in ohio.. something is going on there lately..lol)... and all i want to do is help people if I can and learn from those who are better .... I ask for help or what others think, nothing wrong with that at all......
anyway..... here is what I want to say, that bothers me..... The people who you see everywhere , on every thread , every day..... asking for help or numbers (which is ok) and taking up the most time out of anybody on any given thread, rarely play or hit when they are given the winners by the people who are taking their time to help........
and all the really good people here are so nice and they spend their time for free helping people doing work on a state, that they probably dont even play.....and then telling them what to play....
and the only payback they get is the good feeling that somone actually listened and won.... and that they were able to help another win, which is what LP is all about right? .... Here is he Problem I have .....
Why is it these same folk are the ones who after they are given the winner say
awww.... good job, i didnt go play for the night draw, but i played it for day.. maybe next time
or ...... awww.... good job on giving me the winner i asked you for, and i played it the last 2 days and forgot to play it today when it hit ....
or ....... awww.... crazy me, i played 4 out of the 5 numbers you said to play and for no good reason at all i didnt play the last one, and guess what my luck, thats the one that hit, but please, keep giving me winners and hopefully ill play it next time... (I could go on and on with what i see on a daily basis....... (obviously there are good reasons, and i understand that)
I know these good people would never say this but if it were me I would be frustrated at those posts after spending time finding plays for people and they didnt play.... then say thanks but i didnt play it....
again , this was NOT about me in any way , I just feel frustrated FOR some of these guys who have threads spending their time for free helping others, only time and time again, hearing thanks , but i didnt play and win , which is all they want to hear..... I LOVE EVERYBODY... I hope you guys dont look at this as negative, but lets try to make an effort to make all the great people here with threads helping others, not think all their time was in vain......
Thanks....... and what looks good for tomorrow? If you tell me I'll either play it , or at least not tell you that I didnt play it I promise.... LOL.... GOOD LUCK and happy 4th to all

Well written post but please keep in mind that there are a lot of people that may read your posts and suggestions and "may" actually be playing and winning and you will never know it because there are many many people who read but NEVER post .
They dont post for a variety of reasons . I can say for one that I never post on state threads but I do read the Florida thread. I also get many pm's from people that have been members for years but have never once posted anywhere. They just read and take advantage of tools.
I also will say that many posters who make predictions post a lot of numbers and for those of us that dont play online,
we do need to filter it down to playable amount . It doesnt make sense to play 40 numbers to get a box hit . We may and often do filter out the winner ..
So I understand your frustration, but I also can see the other side of it.

I think a thank you is suffecient for ones time even if they missed the win for whatever reason. I mean you can play some days here or there or with this member or with that member or you may have to drop a number or two because there is not enough money with ones budget. I don't see anything wrong with that. Plus. some people post lots of numbers in the first place amd that leaves a lot ppl comparing notes and picking and choosing which numbers look best.
And with some posters giving out so many numbers that are beyond my budget and probably some other peoples budgets, we have to pick a few out of them all and when the wrong choice is made of course it's natural to say "shucks I should have play 0007 instead of that other number.'
If I'm understanding your post right. I've had a little to drink at the moment

Hi ineedahit
The other day, my nephew called me, he said, "auntie what quick picks did you get"? I said, 339, 939, 266, 920.
I said, I think your birthday is going to come in, 609, but, 69x is due, so play it as 690.
I was taking a power nap when he called, so I went back to sleep, it was, 11:30 in the afternoon, our numbers come out at 1:00.
1:00, 6-9-0 hit straight.
Why not play, 609 and 690? Huh? Why not?
1 out of 1000? Where they do that at? And still be broke? lmaooooooooooooooooo.
Don't get me started @ ineedahit, lol
So, he didn't listen to me, he played his birthday, 6-0-9= $50.00

Midday
6-9-0
Saturday, Dec 28, 2013
Today is Thursday, I sent my son to the store, to play for the midday draw, I filled out a slip, 5 numbers. Before he could get to the store, I called him and said, play, 327 and 762. He played them for Midday, and not both, midday and evening.
When he got back with the tickets, I was like, why didn't you play them midday and evening? He chose to play my other numbers for 2 draws.
Well, look at our evening number.
Wednesday, Jul 3, 2013
Evening
3-2-7
Monday, Dec 30, 2013
I can't be mad, I can't get an attitude, because, I could have played before I went to work. But, I forgot all about me telling him what to play midday.
I really want to say, "Kick hot rocks, with no socks, in some flip flops,", lmaooooooooooooooooooooo
But, I'm not a mean person and today is my birthday, lmaooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
Besides, one of my co-workers brought me 2 quick picks, one for pick 3, 372 50 cent box, and pick 4, 2509 50 cent box.
I won after all, lol, $50.00. And, I still didn't remember that I called the number straight midday. I didn't realize it until I got home from work tonight. lmaoooooooooooo
It is, what it is. " Don't sweat the small stuff".

Well said Ineedahit. CarliG has the perfect answer. We think you do an amazing job and we Read
every thread, every day to stay up on smart plays. We posted in our home state thread for 2 to 3
years and no one else ever said ANYTHING. What we have found here (without seeing players eye
to eye) are some fantastic people. People who may live half a world away but share life stories and
touch us with their kindness and prayers and events outside of NUMBERS. We love the game
period. There are times we wsh we could post a winner everyday for everyone that asks. We also
feel dissapointed when we are unable to even help with a box win. If we had a nickle for everyone
who read our post we would be rich today. People find their rewards in different places, for Colleen
and I, it is soo amazing to see someone won when a number we suggested hit. Colleen almost
stopped posting one time because a player was down right rude. We all get frustrated when u
post a winner and someone did not play it, but we believe that if we can do it once, we can certainly
do it once more. I guess it comes down to WHY you post. You would not be posting if you did
not want to help others win as well. YOU could just keep it to yourself ... You post on a thread
because you want to share,win and exchange ideas. You will never satisfy the masses, but you
can help just one person. You help us in Ohio and you are always positive in your comments.
many of us have walked the road you are on right now, rise above what bothers you and Keep
Posting the winning Numbers. As an old dude, I never think about what people do or don't do
say or don't say. i just want to pick the right numbers and feel good if i can help anyone.

HI Carli...
thanks for your post..... let me clarify though
That post was not about me .... or any frustration I have .... (i have none :))
I know what you mean about people posting a lot of picks for a given state, .... thats not what Im speaking of......
Lets say you have a thread, and post what you think based off your work for whatever state, states you already work on, so then I post asking for help on my state, and then , you take alot of your time working with me on my state and responding to my questions etc etc, and you now have a vested inerest in helping me win ... and you said to play 223, 221, 228 , 128 for 3 days ( this is just a hypethetical scenario) and I keep asking daily do you... the third day you say stay on it , it still looks good..... then guess what 228 hits straight, and you are so happy you helped me win, but I say, thanks but i played it day and forgot to play at night, or i say , i played 3 out of the 4 and the one i didnt play hit.... it wouldnt ruine your day, but you would have to feel some sort of way........
This is not about the threads, where people can simply post , hey can you do ohio, or hey what do you like for floriday today... I am talking about people helping a specific person, and dedicating time that otherwise they would not have spent to find those winners , only to hear, I thanks i didnt play that drawing , for whatever reason, but can you see what you like for the next drawin....you know what i mean..?? ... You have invested time and effort into helping me and I can afford to play what you said but didnt.... then ask you do keep doing it , only to get the same result over and oveer... saying i lost, but you gave me the winner, now what? ...
the point is lets learn, and not be one of those people constantly saying, thanks for your help , but i didnt win, but keep asking whats next, only to not play it when it hits....
this does not apply in all cases obviously...... there are good reasons why you couldnt play.... but i see certain patterns on a lot of threads, and i know thats not the case , and there are people speding time to not post 50 plays for a state, but a few plays at the request of someeone there asking for help , daily, and not just on thier thread but every thread on here, ......
I personally am not upset, i just want to see these people win...... thats what its all about..... drop the bad habits, and bad discipline.... and stick to it .... hold the numbers likee Big D says...... and you will win..... if a person helps you get a winner and you make a mistake and dont play it.... learn , and dont miss it the next time.... good luck

Thanks BigD ,
again this is not about me , i am not frustrated in the least personally, BUT...
I feel a certain way about seeing people spending alot of personal time and effort helping people, who could afford to play the picks that a person here aked another to help them come up with and over andd over and over.... say thanks for your help, you had the winner , but i didnt play....
Now lets say I ask you Big D.... , hey what do you like for ohio , you give me 5 plays and say you like .. a,b,c,d, will hit ... and i say thanks...... it hits , and you never heard from me again or maybe i stop by and say great call.... congrats...etc. you dont know if i won or not....thats cool
BUT....... lets go to other scenarios where I take alot of your time and effort to the point that you know if you give me a winner , it will be played, and if it hits i win........ then after all your work you did just for me..... i played 2 of the 3 you figured out for me and played my bday instead of the third one you had, and thats the one that hit, or i say, i was watching american idol and didnt feel like going back to play it for the night draw..... you know what im saying..... then continue to ask you for your help daily but only post similar storys every day, and even say thanks but i didnt win, even though i had the winner.... i will tell you this , i just read your thread, and Lindalus's post and thats the reason we do it right there.. congrats to her....
my point is , saying hey, what do you like for my state, or hey can you post for my state, thats one thing, but to havee people spend time and effort in helping you and you dont play what they said, and you could have ( the biggest point being you could have and didnt) why did you waste the persons time... you feel me... and if you did, at least dont say you did... ya know...I can post 5 plays and not play all 5 and say i didnt play them for whatevr reason, but, i will not have another invest thier time to give me 5 numbers and not play them ... i would feel bad for wasting the persons time but people do it over and over and over, and keep asking for help, and then dont actually play? ..then ask for the next 5 and post again they didnt play...... just saying
again , this is not about me, lets get to the cash, and lets post winning picks for the 4th..... wishing fireworks for everyone.....
I Am NOT UPSET AT ALL PERSONALLY ...... AGAIN JUST TO CLARIFY... LOL
if you forgot, dont forget next time,
if it was good for 3 days, dont drop it after the 2nd day
if you have to wash your cat for 3 hours in the morning, go put the plays in the night before
If you posted 3 times in a row why you didnt win or play the numbers, and somone personally helped you get the plays, vow to yourself that you will play the plays you ask for and you won..... ( i did that long ago, not on LP but Ive been guilty of repeatedly not playin the winners i was given )

NO ... but I said thanks and I wiill play it since you took the time to send me good info that you didnt have to, well low and behold , it hit, and I did play it ... and won today..... pretty cool
i would have felt bad if someone gavee me a winner, and i didnt play it soooooo.... I had to get it in....
