LMS - Last Man Standing.. Not FMS (First Man Standing) - This game is for night time only, not morning, afternoon, or evening.. NIGHT TIME ONLY!!

At night while most of the world is sleeping there are some members which are looking to socialize since they have no one else to speak to; they play a really exciting and fun game which basically every couple minutes you write a comment, the comments range from standing to sleeping, from young grasshoppers to old grasshoppers. it usually begins around 1:00 am EDT

RULES OF THE GAME:

1) Game starts at 1am Eastern, 12am Central, 11pm mountain, 10pm pacific... You get the point.
2) Anyone can call a roll call, just make a reply with "Roll Call". The roll call must be readable to the naked eye.
3) No more than one roll call every thirty minutes.
4) You have 30 minutes to respond to the roll call to stay active.
5) To respond to a roll call just post a reply with "Here" or "y y y"
6) If after one hour there are no more "Roll Calls" or "Heres", then the last person to post correctly either by calling a roll call or with a reply of "here" is declared winner of LMS.
7)You must have been awake for at least 12 hours before making or answering a RC.



OR IN SHORT:

When someone calls for a roll call. No more than one every 30 minutes and you have 30 minutes to respond "Here".

Isn't it 6 digits?
Some banks (like TD) allow you to choose 4-6; some assign 4 automatically, and then I'm not sure if you can change it to 6. Never tried.

I don't see any ball dropping by times square. I don't think I've ever seen it even though I've seen a few years live streams

The odds of winning a Powerball jackpot depend on the number of possible combinations and the total number of tickets sold. The Powerball lottery uses a set of two drums. In the first drum, there are 69 balls numbered 1 to 69, and in the second drum, there are 26 balls numbered 1 to 26. To win the jackpot, a player must match all five white balls in any order and the red Powerball.

The formula to calculate the odds is as follows:

\[ \text{Odds} = \frac{\text{Number of Possible Winning Combinations}}{\text{Total Number of Combinations}} \]

The number of possible winning combinations is determined by multiplying the number of ways to choose 5 white balls out of 69 (combination formula) by the number of ways to choose 1 red Powerball out of 26.

\[ \text{Number of Possible Winning Combinations} = \binom{69}{5} \times 26 \]

The total number of combinations is calculated by finding the total number of ways to choose 5 white balls out of 69, multiplied by the number of ways to choose 1 red Powerball out of 26.

\[ \text{Total Number of Combinations} = \binom{69}{5} \times \binom{26}{1} \]

Using these calculations, the odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are approximately 1 in 292,201,338. It's important to note that this is a very low probability, and winning is highly unlikely. The Powerball is designed to be a challenging lottery to win, contributing to the large jackpot amounts seen in the game.

If we exclude the area code (first 3 digits) and focus only on the remaining 7 digits of a U.S. phone number, each digit can be any number from 0 to 9. Therefore, for each digit, there are 10 possibilities (0 through 9).

The total number of possible combinations for the remaining 7 digits is \(10^7\) (10 raised to the power of 7), as there are 10 options for each of the 7 digits.

So, the odds of randomly guessing a complete 7-digit phone number correctly would be 1 in \(10^7\), or 1 in 10 million.

It's important to note that this calculation assumes a completely random and uniform distribution of digits, which may not be the case in actual phone numbers due to certain restrictions or patterns imposed by phone companies. Nonetheless, this provides a rough estimate of the probability based on the number of possible combinations.

The Powerball is designed to be a challenging lottery to win, contributing to the large jackpot amounts seen in the game.

If you're trying to guess a random 7-digit phone number in the USA without the first digit being zero and excluding the area code (first 3 digits), here's how you can calculate the probability:

The first digit cannot be zero, so you have 9 possible choices (1 through 9).
For each of the remaining 6 digits, you have 10 possible choices (0 through 9).
Using the multiplication rule for independent events, you can calculate the total number of possibilities:

Total Possibilities
=
9
×
1
0
6
Total Possibilities=9×10
6
 

This is because for each of the 6 remaining digits, there are 10 possible choices.

So, the odds of correctly guessing a random 7-digit phone number in the USA, without the first digit being zero and excluding the area code, is 1 in 9 million. Keep in mind that these odds assume a truly random distribution of phone numbers, which may not be the case in reality.
Note that your calculation does not include anything about number of tickets sold.

the chances are the same, maybe you'll have to divide it if you win, and everyone gets to choose a combination of numbers regardless the amount tickets sold.

I did not mean it like that at all, I'm sorry if it came across that way.

On the Amazon Deals thread there a few members who (used to) post frequently enough that they got a dedicated thread for their deals. I was suggesting it because of the frequency you post deals.
