There is no way to fix this site's lottery
They don't publish a block number the Bitcoin network does. To suggest they are messing up that means you have no faith in Bitcoin as a digital asset.

Good to know.  It's to bad that its broken and cant be fixed.  BTW, BTC block numbers are already generated,  there are 21million block numbers.  Just pick one,  they are in sequential order.  So yes,  I do expect to see a block number published somewhere (which is not well documented).  It should be placed on the site in a prominent area (along with server seed) with a link to twitter,  not hidden in some twitter file that no one is ever going to open or even knows exists.  I dont actually trust twitter timestamps anyway.  Never have,  never will because they are approximated, batched and have been manipulated in the past.  Twitter < BTC as far as timestamping goes.  A better solution would be to actually make a BTC transaction with the link to the file instead,  then link the transaction on the site.  No need to rely upon that twitter garbage.  One of the major advantages of BTC are the fact that it can be used for a RNG and a Timestamping tool.  This is a BTC geared site,  why is it using twitter for things that BTC is far superior at?  Makes no sense to me.
