A Little Weird

reality bizarres the standard

November 18th, 2007 by SeanLottery Game

I made a lottery game, to play with online. Check it out here:

Lottery Game

Let me know if you find any bugs or weird behavior. Happy fake winning!

EDIT: I’ve added more features. I about scared myself shitless with this result as well - winner: 03 11 26 36 40 [16], my ticket: 03 18 24 36 41 [15]. So close!

    dammit Sean! every time i think you can’t become any more awesome you have to go and prove me wrong!

    Lol, awesomeness. The free lottery. Would be cool if you could add a counter to tell how probable it is that the statistics of every play match the statistics of randomness - that way, you can even check for success. Shouldn’t be too hard to do in PHP.

    Anyways - NOICE programming there :P

    that’s cool! I found out, that when I click at random I’m always totally wrong. But with concentrating, I had 1, 2 and 3 right numbers. But still could be randomness.

    Concentrating: Staring in to the black and searching for numbers coming in my mind.

    The QP stays selected even after you click purchase… then again that may be what you want it to do.

  7. cinderwild Says:

    What do the abbreviations mean?

  8. Sean Says:

    TJ - yes, that is what I wanted. So you could purchase multiple QP tickets without clicking on QP over and over.

    cinderwild - QP stands for “Quick Pick”. The first QP box will pick random numbers from the top. The second QP box will pick random numbers from the bottom. The “CLR” stands for “Clear”, which will clear our your current markings.

    It was designed after the Maryland lottery MegaMillions slips (which I just happen to have a bunch of :-P). In the official version, “CLR” is actually “VOID”. And there are some arrows. That’s about the only difference.

    Love it! Thanks

    Sean this program was AWESOME! I agree with kiepmad I got more wrong when I picked at random without concentrating. Is that just coincidence? And was this the lotto machine you previewed in that video?

  12. delimew Says:

    played 6 times, and each time i only got one number right. i’m a little annoyed >.>

    “…And was this the lotto machine you previewed in that video?”

    Hahahaha, everytime someone clicks the button, this thing goes off in Sean´s room!

  14. zephyr Says:

    Am I missing something Dis? Because I don’t know what you mean by “everytime someone clicks the button, this thing goes off in Sean’s room.” Do you mean he’s using us like lab rats watching our progress and recording the results? Hahahaha, just kidding but hey anything’s possible : )

    “Hahahaha, everytime someone clicks the button, this thing goes off in Sean´s room!”

    It’s like that one thing with the guy who lets people drive his car using a Flash program…except instead of a car, we’re controlling a lottery machine.

    Man, that’d get annoying after a while, I would imagine.

    I won $7. :-P

  17. Gumby Says:

    I wasnt logged in when I did it though btw. :-(

  18. Antisankari Says:

    You are trying to say that my 20 millions didn’t register because I wasn’t logged in? =./

  19. David Says:

    hah.. nice game… can anyone tell me what the buttons in the middle do? =p

  20. Vince Says:

    buttons in middle pick random numbers if you dont feel like clicking so much

    Looks like you weren’t playing your own game for 5 days now Sean ;) apathetic inactivity?

  21. Sean Says:

    Vince - no, I was playing the real lottery ;-)
