    Just how would the program find these people? Is there a test to take before hand that determines who's lucky and who's not? Everyone has the same chance to win as the other guy. I have yet to have a ticket that had a 10k payout, does that mean I'm unlucky? To even the playing field my next ticket should have 6 possible ways to win 10k? I don't want to say what I really think of people who complain about "fairness" at the risk of a ban. It just sickens me sometimes that so many people think everyone should get a trophy. Has to be an age thing, up bringing or something, maybe I'm too old fashion. In my day you got what you worked for and you were thankful, you didn't complain that someone got more than you as there is someone who always got less than you.

You can't allow for a situation where your basically just giving everyone 10k a day just because they know some basic maths, there has to be an element of luck and chance on lotteries else it undermines the principle of the lottery itself.
    You don't need any basic of math. Just look for 1 2 3 and in which line they could be. It's PURE luck, nothing else.

    Every single day, some people get mega loot for free and others not. And it is mega loot, because you have to grind a lot to earn 10k MGP. If 10k wouldn't be so much, it would be different.

    Well, if they don't just give the other people more chances to earn GMP without luck, it would be VERY easy for the program to know, how often you have won or not. Very easy.

    In your days? Kid, FF14 got NOTHING to do with work. And if you think, that this was a good time, where some people have to work hard and the others get the work of hours for free, then you are NOT talking about good days. The point is not, that people are getting more. The point is, that others are getting less - by far.

    If they really like casino so much, why they don't implement poker and roulette, too? Or just heighten the reward for chocobo racing, something you are actually PLAYING in this game. You have to win about 100 chocobo races for 10k MGP.

    When I see threads like this, its like seeing the little kid in the toy store stomping his feet because he can't have the same toy little Jimmy has next door. Don't worry I'm sure they'll nerf it just to shut the "unlucky" up, like they have done in the past.

    There is no math. If your ticket got max 360 GP as prize, you CAN NOT win more. The Cactpot solver can just guess anyway, since you still got too many variables.

    Of course, IF there is a 10k win possible, it will be the line with 1 2 or 3 inside and there are easy patterns, which make them easy to guess. The 3.6k win is the same with 7,8,9, same pattern.

    You don't need luck or math to get the right line, you need pure luck to get a ticket with the mere possibility to win this much MGP. And this means, one get tenthousands of MGP and others not and if you can't play hours and hours per day and brainlessly grind TT, this is it. There is no other way, there is only the TT grind and sheer luck - okay, and the gates, but you can not grind them, that with the much worth is RNG again and somen even give less than a single TT win.

    And that's the lackluster.

    Um, have you even tried the solver?

    It will give you the best choices of field to reveal and best row to choose, based on the possible sum values of the 3 fields.

    That's basic math yes, but many variables since the rewards are not sequential by the result sum.

    Therefore you can influence your four choices to click to achieve the best possible result for any given day AFTER the RNG of "what layout the numbers are".
