As you've been playing in the realm of Lottery Sambad for a certain period of time, you may have noticed that the result timings slipped 10 minutes. Waiting for the 1 PM draw result until 1 PM you may have felt disappointed in not seeing it appearing. The same concerns 6 PM draw result which is not being published on time. Usually the 8 PM draw result appears somewhere near 8:10 PM. Newbies tend to refresh their pages just at the draw moment and get disappointed and confused. In this article, we are going to explain why the result is being published later and what does 1:10 PM mean.

The Good Old Days When 1 PM Meant 1 PM

In the good old days when Lottery Sambad results were being published in print newspapers or even pasted on walls of shops there was no rush concerning the time of publishing. Although the actual draw was conducted at the exact time, it was not broadcasted live, so the publishing speed was not of any importance to the viewers. People used to visit their local newspaper stands the next morning, buy their papers and calmly check the results drinking their morning tea.

What Does 1:10 PM Mean Today

Today, however, everything that concerns this lottery has moved online and players need immediate results. Thus, the publishing of the result was shifted from the next-day newspaper edition to PDF uploading on the official portal sites of nagalandlotteries.com and sikkimlotteries.com. However, the draw is still being conducted at the designated time and it is not becoming any faster. Thus, 1:10 PM today means the following: the draw has been conducted at 1 PM, the numbers were chosen, the result sheet was checked and signed by the official panel, the PDF file of it was created and uploaded to the official portal. Thus, the 10-minute gap became the publishing buffer of the modern era.

Why the 10-Minutes Slipping Happens

The thing is that there are several reasons why the slippage happens and once you take a closer look at them, you'll understand that this is not the matter of negligence, but rather the quality control. Firstly, the official panel has to check every single winning number manually, guaranteeing the integrity of the whole result. Secondly, the result sheet has to get the corresponding Directorate signature and this process cannot be rushed under any circumstances. Thirdly, the PDF file creation and upload to the official server may take some time depending on the server load and network speed. And finally, the festival days, times of heavy traffic and any kind of technical glitches may delay the publishing process by an additional minute or two. Thus, all this adds up to the consistent publishing window of 10 minutes after each draw.

What It Means to Daily Players

As for the daily players, there are several changes which you need to make in your habits. Firstly, stop refreshing the pages at 1:00 PM, 6:00 PM or 8:00 PM as you'll just be wasting your data on the empty page. Instead, start checking the results from 1:10 PM, 6:10 PM and 8:10 PM onwards. Secondly, add 3-5 extra minutes buffer if you're checking from slow Internet connection or on the festival day. Thirdly, don't trust anyone who tries to share the "results" before the 10-minute mark as this is the usual attempt to deceive players during the publishing window. And finally, always verify the timestamp of the PDF file of your result as only the genuine one carries the proper draw date and time mark.

How to Reset Your Result Checking Habit

The easiest thing you could do in order to change your perception is to stop thinking about draw time as the result time. Those are two separate events. Draw time means the moment when lottery panel chooses the numbers, while result time means when those numbers are published online. Once you separate the two, everything else will become much easier. Personally, I have set the reminders on my phone for 1:15 PM, 6:15 PM and 8:15 PM, which means that I add 5 extra minutes to the publishing window. Thus, when I open the result page, my PDF file is already there. Try this for a week and you won't need to refresh nervously anymore.

10-Minute Publishing Window for All Three Daily Draws

To put it in more details, here's how it all works for all three daily draws. The result of Nagaland State Lottery 1 PM draw is being published at 1:10 PM and is available at nagalandlotteries.com as well as mirrored at lotterysambad.tv for easy downloading. The Sikkim State Lottery 6 PM Dear Series draw is being published around 6:10 PM and its official PDF file can be found at sikkimlotteries.com and also mirrored at lotterysambad.tv. The last one of them, the result of Nagaland State Lottery 8 PM draw which is the most popular evening session, is being published around 8:10 PM at nagalandlotteries.com. Thus, 10-minutes slip is the constant feature of all three draws and not the accidental random event.

Conclusion

To conclude, 10-minute slipping of result timing in Lottery Sambad is not the delay or any kind of problem, but rather the publishing buffer which guarantees the integrity of the whole process. Thus, when you see the timing of 1:10 PM, you're getting the official, signed and properly uploaded result, not the rushed draft. Adjust your habits, set the 1:15 PM reminder, don't believe the "leaked" results and always get your final result from the official sources or mirrors. Play within your limits, use it as entertainment and let the system work the way it should work.
