Awesome, thanks.

I Love being the lil devil in the bunch.........What about the Pick 4 now?  ROFL!!

:-z  Evil grin

Oregon is a weird state! They only list the past results back to 2007 for most of their games.  They use to have complete archieves one could access but I was not able to locate them today.

Megabucks in Oregon started 11/20/1985

      LP's Megabucks data base goes to 1/1/1997

Win 4 Life appears to be complete

LP's data base for Oregon Pick 4 goes back further than the state site .... so I can't tell if it's complete ... and I don't usually play this game so don't have my own data base.

I have updated the first post in this thread with a huge table showing every active game, and the first draw date in LP's database.

I am filling in the actual game info when I get it, and color-coding the rows I know are either finished or need work.

Please keep the info coming, and I'll update the table 1-2 times a day if I can.  I'll continue keeping tabs on this thread too, so your help is very much appreciated!

Hi Todd>>>

I may not be a Premium member but I do play several Canadian Lotteries and have a substantial database. My Ontario Keno starts on September 13 1991. This data from GH site and updated since the beginning of the Keno game. The numbers I have for your date of 10/01/2001 are as follows>>>04 06 08 10 14 16 20 25 26 29 47 49 54 56 58 60 62 63 64 67...hope this helps. If you have these numbers for that date GH site download should fill in the rest...if not I would be glad to send them to you. I play Keno daily.

I appreciate the offer, but please understand that most (OR ALL) of the databases on the Internet have many errors, quite possibly including the GH database.  I have had to do so much work to scrub the errors out of my initial database, because several years ago I made the mistake of trusting a data load from another web site.  Never again!  All of the data comes directly from the lotteries now, so it is as close to error-free as it gets.

Thanks, I went ahead and fixed the problem with Fantasy 5 and did a refresh on all results for that game, so it's been marked "complete".

What are the start dates for each of the games, so I can update the chart?  (The missing info that I need to find out for every row in the chart is the actual start date of the game.  Just knowing that it's different still means I need to track down that info.)  Thank you.

Ha Ha, just seeing if you were on your toes.  Nice work..

Here is a link to the page,http://www.molottery.com/learnaboutus/history.shtm  they have made embellishments to some games.

Thank you Laverne.  The Duckster sent me all the data files from MO, so I'll hopefully have them updated tonight.

I am continuing to keep the chart on page 1 of this thread updated, so if you dig up any other missing game start dates, please let me know!
