    I was going to say that if Maz wants to roll it over- then do like another Facebook Lotto Friends group stated- if there is a winner, then the roll over is to another drawing that has a higher pay out.

    Or he can get a pair of brake calipers and maybe a can or 2 of spray paint in the color of his choice. Or a dinner or a something else like a ski lift ticket, etc. Or his wool blanket even....

    It was not a good sign when the Powerball was one of the few that we were missing and having so many multiples of so many of the other powerball numbers...

    I support maz cashing in our big $100 winner and buying a good bottle of bourbon or steak dinner. If things get rowdy with either of those options full TR expected.

    You all realize that Kraft Dinner, or KD, is just Canadian for mac and cheeze in a box?

    You could probably buy a few cases for $100 USD.

    Was reading about some crypto billionaire that went from $15 billion to about $991 million in one day. It's not quite the same but I lost $2 billion when I was off by 6 Powerball numbers.

    We should be like election deniers, reject the results on the basis of powerball fraud and storm the lottery office to claim our $2B

    Under California law the Powerball winner can not remain anonymous. That’s fucking stupid. May as well just put a target on the winners back.

    They can't set up a trust like the VT winner did over the summer? I don't know what shenanigans they had to pull because VT is not an anonymous state either.

    They gots a fresh billion. They can afford security now. Name names.

    In all seriousness, publicly distributed funds should be transparent. Target acquired or not

    Heck. One would probably have to spring for a whole new identity after a win like that one. I'd maybe do that and go quietly retire to a private island somewhere remote. Perhaps rock a pair of those novelty glasses with the fake nose and mustache.

    Fine by me if Maz takes this one as a tip.
    Second choice would be let it ride on current biggest opportunity out there. Saving and waiting seems like a chore.


    Does make an interesting question as to what happens if we win $5k or $10k etc.
    What benchmark is payout vs let it ride?
    Sorry to get all heavy but might be wise to decide beforehand.

    I think the benchmark was decided, we get money if the individual payout is more than $37.

    $37 eh? I missed that. How about bump to $370 each benchmark? Maybe $3,700.
    If 75 people bought 3,700 tickets....

    Edit, I guess that's divided by $2 per tix...
    75 people x 1850 tix = 138,750 tix...

    We need an ACK buyer next time

    ==========
    Nantucket is on a lucky streak.

    Just days after a group of 17 Marine Home Center employees claimed $50,000 on Monday from a winning Powerball ticket purchased at Hatch's Package Store, a second big winner on the island was announced on Thursday.

    Someone on Nantucket is in possession of a winning Powerball ticket worth $100,000 that was sold Wednesday at Island Variety. The winner has not made himself or herself known, but Island Variety manager Toni Struncis said it was an exciting time for the store.

    Wonder what the ratio is of people that live there vs tickets sold. Lived on that rock for 25 years, people go hard with the lotto tickets, scratch tickets, and nips. And keno at the bars

    Tickets were $2 to get in. If the total winnings were over $37 times the tickets purchased (Maz limited to 1 ticket per Mag ID), so could not send him $10 for 5 shares - I know some other groups were doing any increments of $2 at work places, on Facebook friends etc.

    If you want to set different rules, for multiple chances per Mag, set up with some of your own rules and do it differently next time.

    So if the Winnings/# of participants is greater than $37 then it was discussed that maybe would be time to not roll it over and consider a pay out... So first group was 57 Mags... so $ winning just a bit over $2100 combined would be required to pay out. Next group was 66 Mags and finally 75 Mags were in so that would add up to $2775 or more of winnings...
