I can imagine people checking their tickets last night, matching the numbers and assuming they had just won a huge sum of money.

I stopped playing a couple of years ago. It's a joke how it's run by Camelot. Nobody should buy a ticket until it's given to someone else to run. Richard Branson should have been given it when he attempted to take over it a few years ago... :2 cents:

Looks horribly rigged. 5 > 3 ? What sort of common core shit is that. How Orwellian. A backwards lottery. The olg here is worse.

Now you know why lotteries are also known as "The Idiot Tax" :1orglaugh

Whole thing is rigged :2 cents:

Ridiculous and too basic set up of just having prize fund for each number of balls. Must be improved in one way or another to make sure that it would not be even theoretically possible for shit like this.

Fucking disgusting :2 cents:

Makes me glad i cunt a4d a ticket... :(

Over the past few months the price for a ticket has jumped 100% from £1 to £2. The number of balls has gone up an extra 10, making it much more difficult to win.

Many people who still play it claim they would give it up but won't because they know the same numbers they selected every week and would be worried they came out when they didn't play. I still know my numbers I used for years aswell, but I simply don't check the results anymore, so I would never know anyway.

Fuck Camelot... :2 cents:

How the hell is this rigged? First of all nobody won so get over it.
How is it hard to understand a bunch of fucks all played 7-14-21-28-35 and 42?
I wish it would have been 28 so they would of all gotten a few grand LOL.
Now that would have been some funny shit. The rules are the rules and thousands of people played the same numbers. Maybe they will change their numbers now knowing if they ever came up they would be sharing it with tons of others.
I bet a lot picked 5-10-15-20-25 and 30 also. Just to be cute.

Op says a joke, not rigged.
Wehateporn says rigged, but he does not mean because of this.
This is just bad system setup. You can definitely set it up so that it would not happen even in theory. Needs smarter setup of prize allocation. Basically prize funds for each number of numbers should not be fixed, but rather fluid.

Poor man's tax

first time to see such shit

That's terrible & as all are saying, it must be rigged grrrr :2 cents:

Wow, how is this lottery able to run still?

That's crazy!

They line up to pay:1orglaugh

Can't win if you don't play.those odds will detract players

Because enough idiots still think one day it will be them who hits the jackpot...

That was close to te big money .you gonna win one day

And Americans hate common core math LOL...gotta keep the kids playin the lottery

Back when the mafia ran numbers and paid out WAY better this was illegal....

Yeah boy sit down with your precious snowflake and make sure they memorize the times tables correctly...no need to actually understand math.....
