Texas Lottery Considering Computerized DrawingsReply
Looks like they are following the poor lead of their neighbor, Louisiana. Their state lottery was instituted in 1992 and has always used computerized drawing to the distrust of many (the state has a history of political corruption and shady business practice). In the end though I'm sure that player-governed lottery will prevail. The challenge is getting the countless players across the nation, in the nooks and crannies, activated.

Texas Lottery Considering Computerized DrawingsReply
Yes indeed. You can cut payouts, raise odds, raise prices, raise ages (which really bothers me because I'm a youth rights activist, agree to disagree). But the undisputed, ultimate sign of corruption is using computers to draw numbers. It basically telling players Hey, f**k you, we're gonna rig your drawings so you can't win. And there isn't a thing you can do about it. , and every player knows it.

Sign the petition - eliminate computerized drawings!Reply
thats right jeff you need to see how many tickets are being sold,if for some reason nobody is buying pick 3 and pick 4 tickets then all of our suspicions about this are invalid.however i do think jeff that you will most likely find that quite a bit are being sold and can start presenting this stuff to your local senator showing the low payouts of indiana vs. south carolina and the huge differences that just scream of CORRUPTION.....

Landmark bill would ban computerized lottery drawings in DelawareReply
Nothing personal, but you anti-electronic drawing guys and gals are self-deceived. Random number generators do not equal corruption or any intent to pay fewer prizes. Make sure you get your facts straight before you jump on the emotional bandwagon of fear. It's a pretty easy jump; easier than doing a little research and using common sense.First fact: Lotteries across the country, including Delaware, Indiana, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, etc., are paying out a higher percentage of sales in these rece

Get help from those TV News reporters like Arnold Diaz's Shame On You , or Help Me Howard from Channel 11.

My Made-Up State's LotteryReply
Quote: Originally posted by CASH Only on December 6, 2004You think the Hoosier Lottery is corrupt? What about Mass NY with their annuity-only games?1. Only offering annuity-only games isn't corruption. It's just bad business sense.2. New York Lotto offers a Cash Option. So I don't know what game you're talking about.

What is reasonableReply
he plays in indiana...whose lottery is under a lot of scrutiny right now for corruption.he lives in a state where there are never hardly any pick 4 winners,maybe one every few days and the payouts on that game are 5 to 6 thousand a day and the numbers aren't adding up right because even in a small state the payouts and winners should be way higher than they have been in indiana.the state already has a scratch off scam being investigated among other things.....in my opinion where there is smoke t
