There has been a trend to increase the range of the regular balls (now 70) and decrease in the red ball range. This increases the odds of small prize winnings. Do people play 1-31 and 1-12 more heavily? 69 for the win!

If you pay extra for "megaplier" (and you should) at least 10% of your ticket cost will be returned to you in 1 red ball or 1 red + 1 white ball prizes. Is a 10% return enough for payments?

I don't trust the lottery quick picker. It is a potential avenue for fixing the game but I'm not sure how. Get numbers from an independent party, preferably a site that offers true random numbers. Humans suck at picking random numbers.

You would assume that a portion of the ticket sales goes into the jackpot. Maybe the jackpot is not won because there are not as many ticket sales as you think, based on the jackpot increase. These huge jackpots draw in more ticket sales so there is a huge incentive to publish a huge jackpot. Do old unclaimed tickets fund the jackpot?

Are the lotto drawing truly shown live and open to the public? If not, they could draw several times and then use the numbers that minimize payout.
