Cactpot winning numbers called backwards? or Player picking backwards?

Why twenty? Click one is just as random as click 20.

Maybe he didn't like the previous 19 numbers?

I don't remember the winning number on my server, but ended with a 0. So did my ticket. It was ***0. It said I matched the last number and I won the prize for it.

Japanese game, japanese read from right to left.

This is not true for horizontal text so drawing right to left makes no sense.

You pick the numbers in the same order that they appear in the drawing, and then the winning numbers match from right to left. My server's winner was 1-7-4-something (I don't remember the 4th digit offhand, but it wasn't 3). I picked (in order) 1-5-9-3, and got no match. If you picked 8-5-9-1 in that order, you should've matched 2 numbers at the end.

In Canada, the bonus pick on Lotto Max tickets are also matched from right to left, so it's not just a JP thing.

I don't lotto but when i do none of it makes sense. Just pressed random number button done.
Rng rng rng.

If its this confusing maybe SE should fix the description etc / directions on how it'll present the winning numbers.

I hated the cacpot lotto. I matched the 2 middle numbers in the right spot and got squat. I just wish it was match any numbers, not just in reverse final numbers.

It does make sense as prizes are matched from right to left. It's like announcing Bronze, Silver, Gold winners in that order.

im confused isnt like that in every country?

examples

winner number : 1490

if your number is

XXX0 = u got the lat digit and win
XX90 = u got 2 digits and win more
X490 = more
1490 = winner!

now if u have 3251 u win nothing obviusly.

1491 = nothing since even tho u have the first 3 that doesnt count at all .

ticket numbers start from 0000 to 9999 that doesnt mean we read from right to left, that means , the rewards are from the lowest to the highest

sorry if i didnt explained well english isnt my 1 language , but makes sense when u think about it :P

What this good man said.

I chose my numbers from left to right. the last digit of the four digit number I chose (8) matched the last digit on the four digit number drawn in the big cactpot on our server. I won a small amount of MGP. I'm not seeing the problem.
