Alas no. I was thinking that, if bought sufficiently far in advance, quantum noise and chaos theory together would ensure that any ticket would win in some branch...
(But yes, I see now that making the choice of ticket itself depend on quantum noise would have been better... hmm...)
In some paths, you used a quantum number generator to decide... in others, you didn't.
In some paths, you conclude that you don't have to do anything because of Many Worlds, and so you simply stop doing. In others, you do not reach that conclusion. In still others, you actively reject it... and in some, you reach the conclusion but continue to do anyway.
Even giving up because nothing means anything is meaningless.
