Let's do this again

Just get a number and post a picture of the ticket. Posting a picture of a Powerball number or just the number in the thread constitutes a binding agreement between the thread contributors to split winnings equally among members.

1. Division: the shares will be the number of total actual ticket numbers entered and each contributor will receive the proportion of the numbers they enter of the total entered.

2. If and when we win we will exercise the cash lump sum payout option from a trust with a catchy liberal enraging name.
 
Do I need to worry whether or not that ticket image was also generated artificially?
No need to worry, let's focus on winning

We've got a 1: 292,200,000 chance

If we spent 584,400,000 and purchased every combination of powerball tickets possible.
We could win the 1.3 billion. Which after tax (Fed37% + Mass5%) is $754,000,000

We will walk away with 169,600,000 in proceeds to split amongst 20 members , we each take home $8,480,000

We must hope no one else wins the jackpot and have to split our well deserved winnings with greedy punks

Update. We could claim the 291,199,999 tickets that lost were operational expenses/ losses and pay much less in taxes
 
For the record: everyone, in the event SOMEONE wins (but not you), DO NOT throw your tickets away. We'll need to see them to confirm you actually did legit have that ticket to get the share that ticket represents.

FWIW, you probably shouldn't, anyway: if you're a "modest winner" (something requiring taxes come out at the time of claim), you can use those dead tickets to expense against your winnings to help a little bit in your tax situation.
