I have never been a fan of playing the lottery. I'd only even consider it if it got above $20 million (which in Ohio under the new Super Lotto Plus is rare). But when I was sent the invitation to join this website, I thought why not.
The web site's main attraction is it's $3 million lottery. All you have to do is pick 6 numbers out of 94. Sounds simple? It gets better. You also have a guaranteed 10 chances every day to pick at least 70 combinations of 6 numbers between 1 and 94. Also, you can win additional picks every week by being very successful on another game on the site (described below) or by matching 3 of 6 (which gives you 1 additional pick) or 4 of 6 (which gives you 10 additional picks). When I was playing the site on a regular basis I was up to 32 picks in 1 week!! But of course, I never won any money either =(
There are other games that you can play on this web site. Trivia is divided into 3 sections: Classic, Arts and Entertainment, and Sports. Each day you get to answer 5 questions in each of the 3 categories with each correct answer entering you into their drawing for $500. (That's $500 per category.) Next up is Hangmillion. This is their version of classic Hangman where you get to guess a word in 3 different categories which at present are Classic, Entertainment, and The Fugitive. Again each correctly guessed word is worth an entry into the drawing for $500. Click 3 is the game where you are given 3 chances to pick a square that contains the money bag. The faster you find it the more you win. On the first try it's 3 entries into the $500 drawing and 2 free picks in the lotto. The second try is worth 2 into the $500 and 1 free pick, and the first is worth 1 entry into the $500 drawing. Also on the site is MixedUp. This is a game where you are given 5 scrambled up words which you have to unscramble. Unscramble all 5 and you get 5 entries into the drawing for $500. There are also additional games that run at various other times.
The web site itself is extremely addicting since there are any number of ways to win any amount of money. The lone drawback to the entire site is that it can be <u>extremely</u> time consuming. Getting through 20 picks in the lotto section can take upwards of half an hour if you pick the individually. (It seems even longer even if you use the auto-pick function.) Also, if you take time to play all of the other games, that can take you a good 30 minutes or more. The other thing is that you have to come back to the site on a daily basis in order to ensure that you get everything the site promises you.
Overall, I recommend Webmillion.com as a fun and entertaining web site. Just be very patient playing everything. Hopefully over time, you'll hit the $500 or approach the $3 million. Good luck!
