Mega Millions Drawing Increase
I do not see anything sketchy at all with the exact ten million increase after each draw. Especially after the increase to $5 a ticket. Nope it is not suspicious in the least, it is all on the up and up.

This jackpot increase is surprisingly less than the previous increase.
The cash increase of $20 million is the biggest increase of the run, beating the previous increase by $1.2 million.

the price hike could have been a response to slowing sales
There's absolutely no question about it. Lottery revenue has been generally going downhill for years and the lotteries have been trying to stop the decrease or at least slow it down.
One of the first huge jackpots was when MM reached $656 million in March 2012 on the 18th drawing. It reached 290 on the 16th drawing and then increased 73 363 and 293 656. A year and a half later in December 2013 it reached $257 million on drawing

Is it growing faster because more people are playing or because the price increase?

This is the largest jackpot increase in this run and is mainly due to an increase in interest rates.
No, according to the worksheet on the TX lottery website it's the 4th largest of the 7 increases since the jackpot was fully funded on 4/28. The worksheet says the largest increase was $8.9 million on 5/8. Here are the actual increase in (millions of) real dollars that the worksheet says they'll give you when you claim the prize:

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?
No Powerball jackpot winner tonight and the JP increase is $8.8M, when the MM increase is $10M there's a lot of criticism, so where is it for PB?

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?
But let's be honest. The Mega Millions jackpot almost reached $1 Billion even despite the numerous lottery players who protested against the $5 ticket price. Even if not as many people play Mega Millions after the price increase, when the jackpot reached a large amount, many people purchased at least one $5 ticket. Yes I know, you stopped playing Mega Millions after the price change. I even stopped playing Mega Millions because of the price increase. Currently, I am more focused on Powerball tha
