How to win the lottery

Summary:
Following the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, quantum measurements result in a sample of all possible measurements, so mapping these to bits will necessarily diverge worldlines. Typically, these worldlines would converge naturally because those quantum measurements get aggregated out (to outside observers they're effectively the same,) but if you do something like map the results to big things then the divergences can persist and split off new worldlines. This is described in depth in https://www.quatism.com/theory.htm - however this has some additional advantages in the context of the lottery. It won't cover all worldlines, but it will potentially provide the ability to travel to the worldlines wherein you won via morphic travel if you can figure out how to master it.
This is /x/, so likely everyone knows "the lottery is rigged." But what if there's a way to un-rig it? That's what this is aimed at primarily. A rigged lottery relies upon having someone to rig it on behalf of, perhaps multiple someones, perhaps a great many someones in their own VIP lottery pool. What this does is provide a sort of multiversal DDoS attack against a rigged lottery: when the number of people playing quantum tickets exceeds the number of tickets available to parties rigging the lottery the absolute best-case scenario for a rigged jackpot would be a split pot, wherein everyone playing quantum tickets still has a worldline wherein they won.
