I sure don't even know wtf there doing anymore. Ever single lottery sucks so much at being 100% clear.
TO BE CLEAR, the prize fund is reset after it's won. they had to eat the lost form last win.
so going by current fund for prizes fund.................
It should be just over 6 million for jackpot + 1 million prize fund .......................... but again with lottery not talking, i have no freaking clue anymore.
Sense am so mad at lack of details, I share this long rant with everyone........
RANT ON==============
Also these top lottery folk, who are smart human beings am sure in lot of ways, but clueless how to design anything aimed at today's newer players.
Lottery CEO Terry Rich told Iowa Lottery board members:
"This new game spreads the wealth and does what consumers' want," Rich said.
He predicted the new lottery product would have "millennial" appeal to players in their 20s and 30s with its interactive components while older players will get a "throw-back feel" from the new "main-stay" game with an iconic Hasbro brand.
They don't have a freaking clue about millennial players, they nearly never talk to us directly, they rather hide behind market research that fails so hard.............
Am a millennial and it's killing me how many clueless people are in power of these large companies, there so out of touch with my world it's painful dealing with them.
There a lot like freaking McDonald's leadership (they are also clueless about millennials and it's costing them big time in sells, and there largest fast food giant in world for crying out loud!)
I even contacted McDonald's recently, as I love there food taste, but man there stupid at the top.
And just like state lottery they don't even brother at all....
True Story, they was testing a new build your own burger at special store but you had to go INTO store and use these retarded computer terminals to do so.
And they make your burger with any topping you want and etc, besides terminal thing, it was rather nice (idea) and i can't wait to roll it out to more stores.
It has major issues btw, pricing was a joke, you could just go up to old fashion sales clerks and get same burger for much less if you had have half a brain by asking for this or that topping replacement on a current burger they already make vs a costume made one form terminal.
Aka they was ripping people off, and while they could of fooled older idiots, it was not working with me.
But i seen a chance to make future greatness, so I made mistake of even brothering to email them and try to help SUGGEST something that blow up sales even more.
I send a email. suggesting, just suggesting A BETTER way, they should give us a app to build our own order - burger the way we want it on our smart phone, Not having to go into a store and do it on that joke of a computer terminal. aka drive thro order.
This is what I got back.

#1 it was feedback about real product they was testing at real a store!, not freaking unsolicited ideas. It's called feedback mcdonald's
They may as will put emailed me back this:
and they only pretend to stock holders to even understand millennials and why all the lack of sales...............
Matter of fact, that goes for double for lottery staff over at my tn lottery........
You ask these nitwits of my state lottery anything about looking for hard to find details:
All am wanting is just want a clear reply, hell I even take, sorry we don't know, but i will ask someone higher up who does know. We get back 2 you some day?
That's all it would take to make me happy................
Nope they can't even try to care.....
Not even that, it's just i can't hear you (so plz never contact us again)
Only person i had luck with was that top MUSL guy who replies back in person if you have a decent question, it just may take him a little bit sense he has to reply to every thing form everyone by him self.....
And what do you know, he tells me what i want to know about about hard to find "hot lotto" details sense my state just joined recently and is beyond clueless at the workings of it.
My point telling you all this, long as these clueless lottery people are in charge, these kinds of major mistakes will repeat, form major game design flaws . never market to us, if your not willing to talk 2 us.
And god bless there cs department hearts for even trying - it's just a joke of customer service!
Funny thing about this world, I ask any thing to a business who I know has a nearly all millennial staff even at ceo level in charge, anything at all, long as it's not a troll email, and i get back detailed as can be replies........
1 time what I got back was over 5000 words total answer, they even said sorry about the long reply, but you did ask.
so they shared all the details that was not public......... and I was very happy.
it's amazing the different level of care given by companies run by old people leadership for lack of putting it into better words, Vs newer people running things who are in my age group. it's like maybe we should not treat everyone like a cable company does" the gold medal winners of not even giving a "
Rant off===============
