That makes sense. I always wondered what their game was. Now I know that it's to let family and friends in on the results first.

It is not a conspiracy theory. It's called nepotism.

What accusations? It was posted here clear as day.

Do you have information to refute it. Do you already have your draw results?

First off this was not a "family friend favoritism" circumstance....not as glamourous as that....

Actually a couple days ago a buddy got into a bit of a "discussion" shall we say about sheep draws....then someone went over to the handy "computer" and told him he didn't get drawn for it anyway....thats all I am saying

....once the draws are made available to everyone then I will confirm or deny what the person had to say was true....

How many times have the family and friends of your "privileged" buddy received lottery draws?

LOL...actually if anyone gets screwed the most out of anyone I know its him....again this was NOT A FAMILY/FRIEND THING....

....BUT what I did learn is that draws are decided well before last night at midnight, which is something new to me....I always thought they were decided and then put out immediately after....this is not the case.

....that is all I am saying on the topic....we all have to wait till things get sorted as I imagine with the system down no one can check them now anyhow.

Who was the person who went and checked? A Fish And Wildlife biologist?

I am sure the draws are decided before midnite last night. Not like at 1159pm July 11 they ran the draws and then ar 1200 am July 12, bingo they are on the site.

But you are accusing them of nepatism and everything else under the sun. Based on what who knows.

I never did argue nor question that the draws are done and complete before 12 am July 12. I am saying, just because great uncle Joe is a biologist, I cannot go online and check my results before everyone else.

Instead of coming on here whining about it, call fish and wildlife and ask for the person in charge of the draws and ask them why it is the way it is. You may be surprised that there is a logical explanation for it. Who knows.

The 12th or 17th of July, it doesn't really matter.

They will get it all figured out.

No, you can't read. And what exactly is "everything under the sun"?

Pretty strong accusations. That their sole purpose in leaving it till the 12th is so the can let friends and family know first.

I can read just fine thank you very much. You are trying to weasel out from your comments by saying oh you don't understand or cannot read. Well sorry ain't going to fly.

SO what does it really matter if someone finds out a day or two before everyone else ....... relax. As long as it is a level playing field based on priority points, who really gives a rat's a** !!

If what LC is saying is true the definition of what they are doing is nepotism. No? You tried to call it conspiracy theory and I corrected you.

I could care less when they know. BUT if they know then there is no reason under the sun that the rest of the Province can't know. I don't know why that is so hard to understand.
