A friend got third division which was a "shitty" $3700. There's so much gap between the divisions! This draw was such a load of shit, you couldn't have paid me to enter it and sit there watching the TV like half the nation did. It was no different to any other draw!

UPDATE 9.50am: A COUPLE sharing a monster $106 million Lotto jackpot with a blue collar battler are back at work today despite their massive win.

They are first-time Oz Lotto players from the Gold Coast.

They are sharing the massive prize jackpot with an Adelaide battler, who has been trying for a big win for 20 years.

The ticket holders are now $53 million richer, after winning a share of Australia's biggest ever lotto draw.

The middle-aged couple from the Gold Coast, the South Australian man in his 40s were the only winners in the Oz Lotto $106 million first division prize drawn last night.

The couple, who – not surprisingly - wanted to remain anonymous, bought a ticket from Lucky Mermaid News on the Gold Coast while the man reportedly purchased his winning ticket at a cafe at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Adelaide.

"I'm numb and quite frankly I have no idea how I'm ever going to sleep again,'' the man from the blue collar Adelaide western suburbs told SA Lotteries.

"I never expected to win and certainly never expected to win more than $50 million.''

He said he would share his prize with family members and charities.

Golden Casket Lottery spokeswoman Karen Anning said it was the Gold Coast couple's first time playing Oz Lotto despite having played in other lotteries.

Lucky Mermaid News owner June Neilson says it's also the first time the agency has sold a first division winning ticket.

"I don't know if we'll get to meet them but I'm really happy for them,'' Ms Neilson said.

Despite their riches, the couple are going to work today.

"It is business as usual for them today. They are going to work,'' Ms Anning said.

"They said they had to check their numbers multiple times last night.

"When they got the call this morning solidifying their winnings, they said `I was hoping to hear from you this morning'.''

She said the couple were in the throes of deciding what to do with their new-found wealth.

"They want to help out family and donate money to some charities,'' Ms Anning said.

Another 60 people will each get more than $33,000 from the second division pool.

The Tuesday night jackpot draw originally set for $90 million was pushed up by a surge of late entries, taking the first division prize to just over $106.5 million and the total prize pool to $177.4 million.

The lucky trio have shared Australia's biggest ever lotto.

After 10 million tickets were sold - three million in Victoria alone - it was revealed last night there were just two winning tickets.

The monster prizes are the biggest individual Australian lotto wins, topping last year's $58.7 million Powerball prize shared by four Victorians.

While the top prize appears to have gone interstate, more than 1.1 million Victorians will walk away with something from the historic Oz Lotto draw.

Twenty-one Victorian ticketholders will get $33,468.25 as second division winners.

Unprecedented demand for tickets saw the first division prize pool top more than $106 million, smashing the expected $90 million jackpot.

Tattersall's spokeswoman Karen Anning last night said Oz Lotto fever had pushed the prize pool sky-high to a final figure of $106,548,562.15.

"The past couple of weeks have been absolutely phenomenal," she told the Herald Sun. "The interest around Australia has been absolutely unbelievable.

"To have finally drawn the prize is just sensational.

"We had never seen anything like it before and it is unlikely we will see it again for a very long time."

Last night's draw was the finale of a week of Oz Lotto mania.

Channel 7 interrupted regular programming to broadcast the draw.

Yesterday, millions of people flocked to lotto outlets to snap up their tickets. Tattersall's processed some 200,000 tickets an hour across Victoria between 3pm and 5pm.

The Tatts website shut down as millions tried to log on in a last-ditch attempt to buy a winning ticket.

Then the site went into meltdown again last night as millions tried to check the winning numbers.

Tattersall's will provide the new instant millionaires with a network of support services to assist them with the win.

"Maintaining their privacy and respecting their wishes is the primary concern and objective for us," Ms Anning said. "We will provide information and a list of services they can tap into to help them through this emotional time."

She said the winners would be able to collect their prize in about a fortnight.

got 4 numbers, won $30... not bad for $5 investment.

lol w00t.

This is wierd, since I bought a lottery ticket on my 15th birthday I've never lost any money on the lottery. granted I never play the shit, but every time I do I win something, usually something insignificant anyways.

The form of the text that the Italian pharmacologist is writing on his laptop is inconsistent between the close-up shots and the longer-distance ones: the laptop is a Windows machine, and the longer-distance show the Windows operating system, but the close-ups are of the modern Macintosh operating system.

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
