you should have it posted somewhere possibly under the lottery system iteself the odds of winning ratio next to each,
Example:
* Match all 3 numbers in the correct order to win the entire *jack*pot Ratio: 800,000:1
* Match 3 numbers in any order to win 30% of the pot Ratio: 12345:1
* Match 2 numbers in any order to win 5% of the pot Ratio: 12345:2
* Remember that Forum Gold has no actual money value, all pots are split between # of winners
* Number ranges from 1-30 and does NOT repeat
Like?

Yeah, I think it's only fair that we know our chances of winning 
Even though I doubt they would be that low

It's 3 numbers 1-9 right?
[Edit]
I'm no math wizz, but this is what I came up with:
* Match all 3 numbers in the correct order to win the entire *jack*pot: 1/729
* Match 3 numbers in any order to win 30% of the pot: 1/729
* Match 2 numbers in any order to win 5% of the pot: 2/81
So apparently, you have the same chance to match 3 of the numbers in the wrong order as you do to match 3 of the numbers in the right order. And your chances to get 2 in the wrong order are a lot better then the other two.

In my opinion this is just making this site resemble d2jsp more and more, with everything you guys are wanting to add. I thought the idea was for a different site  . |

it has nothing to do with another site son
it's simply adding what the odds of winning is, if there wasnt any odds on winning the florida lottery I wouldnt play it
