Maybe, but this reads cleaner than real life usually looks. Feels like the context matters more here than people think.
power cut? sure... wonder what really happened
Ah well, as long as the draw is fair and audited, I'm fine with it. Better safe than sorry.
Wouldn't be so trusting mate. Remember the banking outages last year?
Bet they still got their fees though.
Was watching and it just froze lol. Thought it was my TV.
here! I was about to check the aerial haha

true lol
Used to work at TVNZ. Power outages happen more than you'd think. Backup generators sometimes fail too. Not a conspiracy.
can confirm, power cuts are common. Nothing dodgy.
Off-air? So we just trust them? Mhmm.
As long as the money goes to good causes, I don't mind how they do the draw. 😊
who audits the audit office?
audit office watching... yeah that's what they said last time too
than no draw at all I say
There is a bigger long-term point here than people are giving it credit for.. The long game matters more than a quick headline cycle.
You hear versions of this on site and in the office all the time.. everyone's gonna dogpile the lotto bit RNZ group chat is gonna go off. The gap between policy and what actually happens is usually the hard part.
just want ppl safe
