I don't know if I'd tell everyone or not. The prospect of rounding up all my mates and trashing a suite at the ritz on my first night as a millionaire would be tempting though.

apparently if you try to keep it a secret they try to trick you into going public, like pretending to be delivering something and get you to sign a waiver or something

I read it on another forum a while back, their parents had won some substantial (not jackpot but big) amount and decided not to go public. a while later they thought to read something they signed at the door and realised what was going on just in time......
