- Operator notes
- Sweep confidence: HIGH. RE-VERIFIED 2026-08-08 on the official Friday Forty page: $40, entry Monday 12:01 AM to Friday 1:00 PM, winners notified Friday 1:00-5:00 PM. The page states NO claim deadline, so the previous third-party 'one hour' has been dropped rather than published. IMPORTED PAUSED: a weekly window that closes before the performance week can never appear in a 9 AM today/tomorrow digest. Some later weeks drop Wed mat and play Sun 13:00+19:00. RE-VERIFIED 2026-08-08 on the official Friday Forty page: $40, entry Monday 12:01 AM to Friday 1:00 PM, winners notified Friday 1:00-5:00 PM. The page states NO claim deadline, so the previous 'one hour to claim' (third-party) has been removed rather than published as fact. PAUSED at import: the digest-visibility validator (SPEC-v1.5 4) refuses this program as active - the Friday Forty closes Friday 1:00 PM for the WHOLE following week, so a 9 AM digest that looks only at today and tomorrow can structurally never mention it. Listed with exact terms and the official link; serving weekly lotteries by email needs a digest rule that reaches further ahead, which is a spec change.
