How much time was there between buying the ticket and being told you'd won?

it must be my lucky day or somethin today corbzy lol. haha, got a job, won the lottery, getting the benefits of my snowball distillery etc.

EDIT: Posted at the same time as you, but i got the message at the next station I landed at, so I think it is triggered that way or something. Time wise though...i put my money on at 03:10..and got it back at 03:16 (the time on the log that is) :)

Never won the vanilla lottery but always play because sometimes extra messages pop up on the BBS afterwards.
Brute force and ignorance solves all problems, just not very efficiently.

If brute force isn't working, then you aren't using enough.
