Re: GLUG: Re: GLUG lotto blotto


Jan et al.,

I think it's about time we put this to rest:

1) There is _no_ sequence/trick/sangoma recipe
   that will predict numbers. A lot of money
   is spent to make _sure_ it is random.

2) The ticket means very little. All "guesses"
   are downloaded to a database with the purchasing
   info (place/date/time). Sure - you can forge the
   ticket, but how are you going to guess where it
   was bought, on which day and which time, as well
   as the serial number of the ticket?

Stick the bloody thing up on a dart board and throw
darts until you get six numbers. Pay your R2-50 and
don't expect to get anything back.

Fin.

Jeremy
