Are you two even old enough to play the lottery? Which lottery are you even referring to? What state is this lottery in?
Ok first off, in most states, in the case of a prize under $250,000, the winner(s) can stay anonymous. Even in the case of a prize of 250k and over it is at the lottery's discretion to make the winner public. If they make the winner public they must do so through a press conference, though by goverment law they are not required to.
As for smaller prizes, anything under $500 can simply be mailed to a lottery office and they mail you a check. Anything under $250 can be redeemed at the store where you purchased the ticket if they have the funds on hand (I was once denied a $100 payment and had to send it in).
Also, he never mentioned grand prize and seeing as how the discussion was about multiple level of prizes that wouldn't have even made sense. Even if it did, I clearly stated that nobody found the grand prize so your argument goes down the tube there.
Either way this is a pointless argument. Staff have the final say on all events they hold. If it was a problem that I don't announce prizes another staff would have confronted me or Taran would have asked me to.
