Those running MM have decided to add Roman numerals to the playslips in addition to the regular numerals.

There will also be Roman numberal balls in the drawings, and in order to win your numbers must match the form the ball is drawn in.

So if you have 5, 12, 23, 29, 36 MB 10 but the drawing is V, XII, XXIII, 29, XXXVI, MB X, sorry about that, no payout for you.

MM says Have A Lucky Day.

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.

After matching all the numbers correctly you must then locate a specially coded prize validation ticket printed at a lottery terminal to collect the jackpot. It will be available at only one MegaMillions lottery terminal, selected at random within the available terminals within the United States. You have 24 hours to claim your prize before it will be forfeited; 40% to the State that sold the ticket, 40% to the State where the validation ticket was printed, and 20% for privatization factoring.

Those running Mega Millions have been studying the new playslips and decided that instead of having five games on one playslip they are just going to have one game and one 'mahooga' matrix!

So after the modification it will be a 5 of 375 and 1 of 75 game.

They also said that 99% of quick picks will simply be the numbers from the previous draw.

The MUSL says "Thanks for playing and have a lucky day."

Update:

The MUSL announced that with the next change to MM 3 of the top matrix numbers will be a ball draw and two will be drawn by a RNG.

The Mega number will be determined by a MUSL official rolling a bowling bowl down an alley at 15 pins, nnumbered 1 to 15 of course. The last pin to go down (one roll) will be the Mega number.

All of these are very funny! I find it amusing that in Georgia there is a new MM radio and commercial ad going on about how nobody ever complained about winning 15 million dollars. It's so overdramatic.

All MM tickets will now have a 10-digit alphanumeric code at the bottom that must be matched with a non-winning ticket somewhere in the US. That non-winning ticket must be located and verified. The holder of the non-winning, code verified ticket get's 10% of the jackpot.

For awhile maybe not....but how mant lotto jackpot games have not had a matrix change?

What used to be 5/30 becomes 5/39, 6/49 becomes 6/52, etc....

Maybe RJOh, Jon D, KY Floyd, or Stack47 has some info. about this.
