Anybody playing? I just got 500 tickets. Hey, if you don't play you don't win, and if I win I will buy everyone that replys to this thread a bootloader.:gg
Also I had to drive 30 miles to another state to get tickets, but I can play church bingo for cash right down the street??? I sure will be glad when Jesse Helms dies.

Hehehe...I replied, but I'm not interested in a bootloader.
What I think you should do if you win, is buy me a P4.

You'd need about 5 billion or so more dollars to do that.

Hmmm...
The Big Game has a total of 76,275,360 possible outcomes. So, if you have $76,275,360, you can play them all and win for sure! :) Even if you have to split the $325M with several others, you'd still come out ahead. Not to mention the NUMEROUS other winning non-jackpot tickets you would hold, including 36 $150,000 winners with 5 numbers matching (without the last ball). So, it's fool proof!
Ok...everyone hurry up and PayPal me...if we can raise seventy-seven million dollars, and have one of each ticket printed up, all within the next 90 minutes, we're SURE to win!!! :D

With my luck I'd buy 76 million tickets and it would be the first time 1000 people won the big game.

How long would it take you to find the winning ticket out of 76 million tickets?

Let's see, if we got 1000 people together, then each person would be responsible for getting 76,275.36 tickets before the deadline. It would be tough, but it could be done. Each of the 1000 people would then get $325,000 in winnings, that's a profit of $248,724. It would be worth it. If no one wins tonight, who's game for the next drawing??? The profit will be even better. We can do this!!!

On second thought, I don't think we can do this. Each person would have to manually block in all the numbers on each ticket. What if someone makes a mistake, and that costs us the jackpot???

LMAO. Sign me up for the P4. I lost. 3 bucks down the drain. Yeah, I'm cheap.:gg

What you're doing in essence is ticket blocking..A group of aussies 10 years back got together and blocked (purchased all combos) of numbers in a big rollerball for about 190 million..since then procedures have been put into place to make it next to impossible to buy every combo in time for the drawing..In some places thay won't pay if they find out ..Just my 2 cents..Count me in though..

Yeah, I remember hearing about those Aussies. I think it would be next to impossible to actually pull off. We couldn't have much more than 1000 people in on it to make the return attractive. I think each ticket would have to be manually filled out -- there's too much potential for a mistake. If a computer could do it, then that would be HUGE!!! Someone would have to generate every possible combination, then that would have to be divided up into batches of 76,000. Each of the 1000 people would be assigned to one batch, meaning they have to pay for it and fill it out. After the drawing, we would know what person had that batch of numbers, but what if they scammed us and disappeared with the winning ticket??? We would only have one of each of the other winning tickets ($150,000 and lower). By the time you split that 1000 ways, it's not too good after you already spent $76,000.
Oh well. It's all for naught now anyway. I just checked the results and there were 3 winners last night.

As I remember it , the aussies purchased the tickets via computer.Now you can only buy in small???(relatively) batches making it take forever!! And their group was small, like 10 to 15 investers..Mathmatically they couldn't lose though..
