  I thought the Lottery Post members would enjoy this one, especially the long-timers here.

  Anyone remember when Lottery Post looked like this?

  

  This is a screen-shot of the very first page of messages from Lottery Post back in September, 2000.  The board didn't get nearly the activity it does now - you can see the first message was posted on May 31, 2000.

  That was when Lottery Post didn't even have it's own domain name.  It used to be http://www.biggamelottery.com/lotterypost/.

  Anyone could post anything back then, it was a very simple board.  The following year I added an optional membership; then in August 2002 I finished programming and launched basically what you're seeing now.

  Lottery Post was never launched as a get-rich-quick kind of thing, but more as one of those personal quests to do something you enjoy.  A lot of work over the past few years, but I still enjoy coming back every day.

  There is still lots to come, but I thought you might enjoy seeing the humble beginnings.

  Who can forget that Lottery Post is where the winners post?! (ie: EZ Money hits Powerball for $100K).

  Thank you, Todd!

  This is a great site.  I, personally, hold it in a special place in my heart.  It has been my "lottery family" for awhile now.  Sometimes, we get too focused on one thing in our life so we "cut" up once in awhile getting off the lottery track but that is what makes it fun.

  You are the best.  Thank you for taking this "homeless" gal in.  I don't have one negative thing to say about what you have done here.  And I, too, click on the banners in respect for you and your work. I HOPE ALL OTHER LOTTERY MEMBERS DO THE SAME!

  Would just like to extend kudos to you Todd. I am not sure how old a member I am but still derive enjoyment and info from this post. Keep up the great work. Maybe you can run a posting of some of the more successful "systems" every so often so new people can have a chance to test them in their state. Might be interesting to watch. Again keep up the good work.
