    which is why even though they were millionaires they still showed up to work the graveyard at meat packing plant. not a lot of people would have done that I imagine

    I would quit my job for sure, but would give my boss 2 weeks to get things in order and then I am out. My company has been good to me and I would hate to leave them with a boat load of half finished files.

    I would at least help in transition of those. However if my company dicked around and was not ready by the end of week 2 then that is there problem.

    I'm going to buy a ticket. I'll probably win because I am good at this shit.

    One time I bought one pull tab at a drawing and won the $500. There is one in an entire box of 5,000 pull tabs.

    That would be some bad ass shit. Someone wins and does a random drawing of 10 TMBers. You then fly these 10 out to your city and have them draw 10 keys to 10 different storage lockers. Prize could be in the locker or just a picture of it. Have it where 9 lockers are bad ass, prizes of 10k and higher. Then one that is full of crap. You may sell the shit in it, but you must clean the fucker up.

    It just doubles your winnings, except if you when the whole thing. I don't usually do it, made a mistake one time and the guy gave me a ticket with the multiplier. Actually won $9 I think so got $18 instead.

  32. Shu

    Shu there is no custom title

    I think that number could be reduced a little by doing things like eliminating number combinations of 1,2,3,4,5 PB 6, 45,46,47,48,49 PB 50, etc, etc.

    IDK if it would be worth it to take away all the "runs" like that, but runs like that would be very unlikely to hit, imo.
    What would suck is playing 100 million tickets and then having to split it in half or thirds with one or two other winners.
     
  33. Shu

    Shu there is no custom title

    Anybody think the quick pick option could be rigged as to decrease the chances of winning?

    Like they have some advanced algorythm or something that tells them what numbers are least likely to hit based on recent days?

    I believe statistically any number has the same chance whether it has hit three times in a row or not. But I am of the belief that if a 25 has not hit in 3 weeks it has a better chance of hitting than say a 5, that hypothetically hit twice in two weeks.

    Shu would spend 50 million on tickets but exclude numbers stuff that is just as statistically possible like "runs" and combinations that recently won then not win a damn thing.

    I don't know if this is 100% false. I got 2 quick picks yesterday and my numbers were 4,16,35,42,44, and PB20 the next one was 4,11,38,42,54, and PB 20. I got 3 identical numbers with the same PB number. I was like :whyioughta: when I saw my ticket.

    Haha, that does suck getting the same PB#. I've had that once before. I don't know the algorithm of selecting quick pick numbers, but I'm near positive it has been audited by some company and isn't fraudulent.

    Won $150 from last nights draw. Got 3 numbers plus the moneyball. Since nobody won it all and its up to 476 mill now, I'm thinking of taking that 150 and throwing it all down on tickets for Fridays drawing
