You can be our spokesperson when Barbara Walters interviews the online nerd community who won the Powerball jackpot, deal?

Sure, for a fair compensation from the jackpot, I would do it.

Is this $222M gonna go up again before Wednesday? Or it will only go up AFTER Wednesday if no one wins?

You people are total losers, cant even win something so simple as the lottery.

After.

And the jackpot amount doesn't really matter, unless you decide to take the annual payments.

The amount that matters is the cash option, which is $144.5 million.

hm.. megamillions cash is $104 Million.
28% less but 100% more tickets.

hm.. powerball = 65% of jackpot = cash
megamillions 75% of jackpot = cash
