I hope this is true. About Ga 5 ending soon.

Glad you were able to travel down from Portland, TN to WSB Atlanta to attend the live drawing, lol

Very cool and very interesting. They seem to be pretty transparent in the process and it was nice to hear about your experience.

I asked same question.

Basically durning pretest. They open ball case. And put them into tube. In order

0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9

They say they do it so auditor can verify all balls are being used..

I forgot all about pretest.

3 for cash4. 3 for cash3

It was 6 in all.

Balls were always put in in numerical order.

Live draw balls were put in anyorder.

2.5 hours?

I bet 2 of those hours were spent on pre-tests, like Florida probably does.

They use 2 different auditing companys.

1 for midday. And 1 for evening.

All winning results get called in to Gtech immediately.

They then Determine if draw can be official.

Then they call Ga lottery headquarters to tell them it was officialized from gtech

The Machines are all standalone machines

The balls are rubber for daily games

Except for Ga 5. They use ping pong balls

They will be ending Ga 5 soon.

Its a 2.5 hr process to set up machines

If I can recall. They have 9 ball machines and about 15 sets of balls

And 2 laptops for that All or nothing game

I could touch and look at everything. Except 1 thing the balls.

They would not let me touch the BALLS
