OK many people play the national lottery, some in syndicates etc. Some enter bonus ball draws.

So here goes our very own bonus ball competition, select your bonus ball by posting it below (please check previous posts to ensure that your ball is available). No prizes except being able to say "I won"

We could play for virtual money (£1 entry?) and the pot is the number of people who post - Means we even have a rollover if we don't have a winner today (Saturday draws only).

Sideline - State why you are selecting your number


My Number = 25 (My birthdate (original - not!!!))

23 for me, my birthday

I hope you will be passing the money onto good causes if there are three roll overs!! I can think of a certain telecoms company who are in need of a few good causes donations ;)

Anyone think that it is quite spooky that number 13 is the worst performing ball.

Never mind Mark W.:D

lol...well, thats fine by me, cos due to the rules of probability - and lets face it, thats a better thing to hang your hat on than superstition - that means that 13 is all the more likely to turn up soon :)

The result = 29 which makes homealone our first virtual money winner taking the £10 kitty - Now don't go out and spend it all at once.

ZrByte

I thought Paypal was quite easy to use.



only easy if everybody pays up, could get quite confusing if say one out of the 45 doesnt pay up, you then have to work out who it is by wich email you havent recieved, it also means volenteering someone to have all the money deposited into his/her paypal (Who we can trust) then that person to sort out where all the money is going.
