My experiences with this game are well documented on LP so I won't rehash the numerous posts. I will however, for the record state that the NYS Lottery has moved to a morally questionable business model.
Over the past 5 or so years they have gone above and beyond to mislead consumers and make winning ticket info not easily accessible.
Removed the Winners Atlas so players don't have access to the previous day's instant and draw game amounts and winning locations. You have to rely on the Winners Stories and Instant Game Reports.
They don't place all the jackpot winners in the Winners Story section, nor do they always announce winners in the news. Sometimes they do with delays of months.
They don't always update the Instant Game Report and Remaining Jackpot pages on Mondays. Sometimes they update one and not the other until days later. They even combine jackpots of games with the same name but different game numbers.
These practices are intended; in my opinion, to purposely keep players uninformed and continue to drum up sales for games.
And lets not not get me started on the Odds formatting and top prizes of these new games they are putting out...
