$244 MILLION: Mega Millions lottery frenzy ramps upReply
I hate to disappoint you dpoly1 but I have multiple accounts set up to handle the $109 million I expect to receive after 1) all six numbers match on my ticket, 2) I claim the jackpot win under a trust I have established, 3) Uncle Obama...oops, I mean Uncle Sam takes his cut, and 4) Papa Raise My Taxes Quinn gets his cut (that will be the last taxes Illinois get from me as I will move south after the big win...no longer want to fund those inflated public pensions...yep, I am a hardworking private

$244 MILLION: Mega Millions lottery frenzy ramps upReply
Todd- I appreciate how the Usa Mega site is updated in a timely manner. I figured that someone would have hit the jackpot Friday but with odds at 1 in 176 million it could rollover for several more drawings. It is likely that with the jackpot being well over 200 million that some person or group will win before the end of March. That being said I hope that someone from the LP family wins and in particular I hope that person is me. I don't have to be the sole winner but it would be nice to have o

Keep playing old games or move onto new ones?Reply
I would be torn between the games as I am in the same situation now. I first was thinking that if I devoted all my funds to the old game with perhaps fewer tickets due to sales over time that I could increase my odds. But at the same time the new games seem to have one or two of their jackpots hit with in the first 3 to 4 weeks. So, that is what I am doing, I'm playing Color of Money since it is new for a couple weeks or maybe until the 1st jackpot hits and cutting way back on any older 10.00

Woman sues TV station over lottery numbers errorReply
I am afraid she is not going to get a single penny. Could you Imagine if she won. 1 Million People with lottery tickets waiting for the T.V station to Draw incorrect numbers. So they can sue them for the Prize. The Odds of a TV Station broadcasting worng numbers by error are Much better than actually Hitting the Lottery. So Buy one ticket watch the broadcast and pray that something goes wrong. LOL What a Joke.

Pens or pencils?Reply
Tennessee playslips are so thin you can fill out a hundred of them at a time by doing the top one with a marker. They're so thin you could probably use them for toilet paper. And your odds of winning the lottery would probably remain the same if you did.

$3 dollar Crossword and Bingo gamesReply
I never play those $3 crossword/bingo games. Takes too long and that sticky blue translucent stuff is a lot messier compared to the regular dry stuff on other scratchers. I pretty much only play the $5 scratchers here in CA, those are the top scratchers with the best odds and 6 figure top prizes. And no crossword/bingo games in this top tier. Only reason I'd buy a $1, $2 or $3 scratcher is to fill in to a round amount like $20 or for redemtions not in multiples of $5. But then I'd pick any ot
