Lottery RIGGING !!Reply
what some also dont realize is that its not one or two people who do the rigging.its a team effort. team they dont split one jackpot as you may imagine. they split all jackpots. and all the money goes all the way around the table, which keeps all the mouths shut and the game continues on. its a large scale effort to satisfy greed. also, when someone would ask me why would they do it, the first answer i come up with is this,...........does one actually believe for one second they are goi

winning ticketReply
Well, all I can say is wow. You sure must know a lot about working behind the terminal and all. I guess here in Maryland we are a different status quo. NOT.

When to Play the LotteryReply

If you are the one paying attention and are so convinced of p

What about those bonuses!?!Reply
Quote: Originally posted by Alicerosalyn on August 30, 2004Fellow lottery players,I've seen a couple of news articles about lottery top officials being given huge bonuses. Hmmmmmmmmmm, wonder why? Aren't these games state government run (Georgia being one of those states)? How in the world can they justify bonuses when they've implemented computerized drawings to save money ? How many other state employees (top officials included) get such large bonuses? bonuses period? Are they getting b

For some it may not be enough merely to win a million but to win an unprecedented sum of money. Some
