odds should actaully be 25*24*23*6 (1:83800) as the order of numbers mater, if order didnt matter then you dont need to multiply by 6. GO FINITE THEORY...lol.

Nope, that is incorrect. You do not *6. You /6 for unordered, leave it alone for ordered.

so there's a 1:13800 chance, right?

someone with 69,000 FG could purchase 1 version of every ticket at the beginning of the hour and then he comes out with over 100k FG

is there any way you can limit how many tickets you can buy per drawing?

Not sure if u answered this already but what if there is a winner of the jackpot and a winner of the first 2 numbers. Does the first 2 number people get there 2.5% before the jackpot is givin? Do they get nothing? Or Do theyget 2.5% of 1000?

wft does that mean? why would the jackpot winner not win.

What if one person has 2 tickets with the 2 numbers right?

like 22/21/1
and 22/21/5
when jackpot number is 22/21/17

Look at the Past Winners link and see for yourself. It's already happened once.
