    I think we should all syndicate. everyone add £1 to my paypal account, along with a post of your desired numbers and I'll buy the tickets.

    If we win the jackpot then I'll share it with you all.

    I only buy QuickPicks. Been buying them more often lately.
    Last Week, I won $3 on one game, and $7 on another. Not bad for $1 ticket!

    Rofl. Good one.

    Since all 6 number combinations are equally likely to win (about 14 million to 1 in the UK lottery) why not choose combinations that make it more likely that you will get a larger share of the jackpot?

    Lots of people use birthdays, so don't use 1 thru 31. If your numbers do come up, then you are likely to share it with fewer people than if you chose a birthday system.

    I am a geyneus.
    I don't live here any more.

    Damn, I/we only got 1 number out of that little lot!!!
    Never mind, if I do this 5 more times, maybe that number will go up by 1 each time until the 6 numbers...

    That's going to make counting a little more difficult.

    16, 17, 18, Tony TarinTino, 20, 21, 22... has a nice ring to it though.
