EXCLUSIVE: Weeks-long computerized draw error prevented many DC Lottery tickets from winning a prizeNews Story
Certain combinations had no chance of winning for three weeks By Kate Northrop Following independent observations by Lottery Post members of an unlikely statistical anomaly in Washington, D.C. draw outcomes, the DC Lottery identified a software problem that meant certain combinations had no shot at winning prizes in three games.

2026 lottery headlines you hope to seeReply
Yes. Claim an ongoing investigation for 4 years. Lol Oldest trick in the book. Ghislane was sentenced in 2022. Yet the Trump Administration was expected to advertise and bid a contract with a vendor to set up an online searchable database, hire many new attorneys to review the documents and redact sensitive info in millions of documents in a year. And have a second higher level of review. You do know this process is not handled in house with a DOJ paralegal in the basement doing this work???

The coding error blocking repeat digits like 111 or 229 in DC 3, 4, and 5 draws from March 31 to April 21 wiped out roughly 27% of combos in DC 3 alone (since 10^3=1,000 total minus 720 unique-digit ones), which is why sharp LP folks caught the stats anomaly so fast. Kudos to DC Lottery for owning it and switching to backups quickly, but holding tickets means they're likely cooking up a fair remediation, maybe prorated payouts based on odds adjustment. Ball draws aren't foolproof either (machine

DC Lottery offers compensation for players affected by computerized draw errorReply
Sure agnoledging Lottery Posts Intel about the glitch would be an admission of guilt. No one ever admits wrongdoing. They blame human error albeit a third party(see it wasn't us)

Skipped over the mandatory UK 30 payments part, which is my error.... At least it should only leave 1-2 years of fully owed remaining(7%) taxes that can be potentially not paid. Course, payment 29 and 30 will have the biggest tax collection aspect.
