How this list is ranked

Every $3 game on sale, ranked by top-prize money still unclaimed (top prizes left × top prize). Games with no top prize left go last. Prize counts come from the North Carolina Lottery and are refreshed daily. They describe the whole game, not any single ticket or roll, and claims lag sales by a few days.
