The slope stat has stabilized

It’s always fun watching the blog stats on this blog just sky rocket when huge drawings are about. Most recently was the Michigan Millionaire Raffle drawing that gave out millions in prizes. The spike went up to near 800 this time, which I’d say is a record for a Michigan Raffle , but not the record. The record would have to be back early 2007 when the Mega Millions jackpot hit 345 million

Busiest day: 1,634 — Wednesday, March 7, 2007

According to my records the biggest hit. So now I see the graphs as the slope heads back down to its average 170-250. What causes all this? I’d say just pure randomness, since I rarely get comments. When I do, it’s 20% good comments, 5% cocky comments and 75% that are just people complaining that I don’t know what I’m talking about since I didn’t win the lottery. Those are usually the harsh comments that aren’t spelled out correctly and last 1 sentence and I can usually smell the halitosis from this side of the computer. The ones claiming they won the lottery and type like that, make me wonder…If you just won millions of dollars, is there really a lack of things to do besides search out lottery blogs and type like a 3rd grader on crack? So those get spammed right away. That and to date, over 80k spam comments have been blocked. There is probably 1 or 2 spam comments I let by, just for the fact they had sites associated with the lottery. Do I approve of them? Well they aren’t scams as far as I know.

Will Michigan ditch the Super Raffle?

So I’m sitting here after spending 40 bucks on the Raffle….when will the next raffle come out? I’m curious how it will work out since it rotates Millionaire Raffle then Super Raffle. Will Michigan finally ditch the Super Raffle?
The reason I’m thinking this is that not only did it have very bad sale records, but they had to extend the drawing date an extra week plus because of low sales. For 50 bucks a ticket, I’m not sure whether or not that’d be a great idea to do. Will I buy a ticket buy a ticket? Of course, I always buy the latest and greatest ticket available! I have been lacking in scratch and win tickets, or should I say, Scratch and Lose tickets because there is no hope like there is with the mega millions and the like. You buy it, you get it, you lose. All within a few seconds.

A Saturday of Luck? Not really

Just having a new born baby I thought I’d have some luck in playing the lottery. Well I played the Classic, Mega and the Daily 3 with a day off the numbers since the lady didn’t hear me well. I’m thinking that’s what caused the unluckiness, but neither of the numbers showed up. I’m still crossing my fingers for tomorrows supposed Raffle draw though. I have two tickets just dying to win!

Two of my latest projects I been tinkering with is playing every single possible combination of the daily 3 over the course of 1000 days. A long daunting project that is not only time consuming but will be more of a better way to put a book together me thinks. What happened to the Project Lottery Life book? Well of course there was dead time in between posts here and there and nobody bought into the idea. I will however be putting together the blog posts of that year and making an e book out of them when I get a chance.

The next project I’ve been working on as of late is playing the Fantasy 5 for a month straight everyday to see the odds on that, something like the original Project Lottery Life with the Mega Millions except I’ll do better book keeping.

Why wasn’t there a big event on me doing that project? Well every time I got a ticket I wrote down the numbers, however I didn’t keep the ticket and it just turned out not feeling right since I really didn’t have any concrete proof that I played it every time. However I will be making a post on the results of it shortly.

A new beginning coming

With the Raffle drawing around the corner on Monday a thought came to mind. If bought far apart, could one person possibly win 2 of the million dollar prizes? The odds for it happening are so far and out there it’s about as likely as winning the actual mega millions. However, I bought my tickets so far apart that it seems that I may have a chance. A very very slim chance, but a chance nonetheless. Will I win? Odds are against me, I’ve bought tickets far apart before and won absolutely NOTHING. I’ve also had people email me as well as comment on this blog saying they played the actual odds of winning and STILL won nothing. That right there just kinda cheese me off, since the odds aren’t there and are of course wrong. But its the closest way to determined what actually can be won. I’m hoping for at least 100 bucks after laying down 38 bucks for the tickets. If I win anything more then that, I’ll be on cloud 9.

New Blog Logo

This place finally got an upgrade with it’s own personal logo!

The good man himself Cliff Nowicki over at www.cliffnowicki.com created a personal logo to by pass all the plain jane stuff that we have right now. Sound familiar? Well it’s me of course, and I felt that this place needed a quick something to distinguish itself. I’ve had it sitting around for months before I realized that it was finally time to put it up on the site.

I’ve also been trying some other money making ideas, but have yet to figure it out with all that stuff. I’ll be making a book/dvd page and go through the amazon area and hopefully if your into buying lottery stuff you can do it through there and I can get a little commission on that. I’ll announce that as soon as it becomes available so you can get your hands on some cool lottery stuff that you may not have known.

Friday the 13th. Lucky Lotto Day?

The answer to that question is a big fat no. A co-worker suggested today that I buy 13 lottery tickets upon hearing that Friday the 13th is a lucky day for me. As an avid lotto player, I jumped at the chance. I decided to try my luck at a few other tickets as well. What was the total of ticket buyage?
13 x Mega Millions
1 x Classic Lotto
1 x Fantasy 5
1 x Daily 3
1 x Michigan Raffle

I just had to buy a 2nd Raffle ticket with big hopes that my lucky day may pay off. Will it pay off? Only time will tell, but so far the tickets that game out with winning numbers are the mega millions, fantasy 5 and daily 3. A total of 15 bucks spent on those and a grand total of……$3 bucks!! YAY I can make u p for the classic, fantasy and daily. It was worth a shot, the tickets still waiting to be called out is tonights Classic Lotto and the Michigan Raffle. I have a good hope about that raffle ticket. At the end of the day I don’t feel as lucky but really hopeful about that Raffle ticket.

More Money

So I checked my Fantasy 5 ticket again today….and I won a dollar!! YAY, I continue to make my money back time after time. Lucky? I think so. Great luck? Not really, I’m happy with winning my money back. Maybe its the trend that I cash in my ticket to buy another one and it NEEDS to win at least 1.

More Lottery talkage

I finally cashed in those Fantasy 5 tickets today to get some more Fantasy 5 tickets along with a Classic Lotto ticket. Will I win the big one tonight? I dunno, I just might. I’m still waiting on the Michigan Raffle that only has 75k tickets left to go! Get buying those tickets people otherwise they’ll cut it off completely. Would that be a good thing? If I personally don’t win anything, I would think it’s a good thing. If they still kept it around however, I’d still chip in my money to get it when it comes out.

Taking to the daily 3

I’ve taken a keen liking to the Daily 3 as of late. Its almost like I have to get a daily 3 ticket with all the spare change I have in my car. For as little as 50 cents a play you have a chance to win 41-500 bucks. The details on how exactly this game is played is fairly simple, however the more complicated ways of playing seem confusing. Guess I’ll have to investigate some more and see how I go!

I’m also determining whether or not to bring back the winning number drawings of games. On one hand, there’s the main source, but on the other hand when you search engine my site comes up. Which is quite surprising to me out of everything on the web that when michigan mega millions is searched my blog comes up frequently. How many of you here have done that and stuck around to read my blog?  In the end, i’ll do my best to try and keep up to date the winning numbers on a seperate page on the right column of my blog.

The Super Raffle sign still mocks me as I walk in to get my other tickets for mega millions and now the daily 3.  It’s telling me…it’s not over yet, keep waiting! Slowly mocking me, needs to hurry up! About 40k tickets left. Get buying people! And best of luck and hope whoever reads my blogs wins something off it. I’ll let everybody know if I won it (of course)
