The History of Mayonnaise

Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York. This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost. The people of Mexico who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day. The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as Sinko de Mayo.

So many of the posts here seem to just shuffle the lotto numbers around then call it a predictive system. It's hard for me to fathom that so many people buy into it. If any system is to be other than coincidence it will have to have some, if not most, of its elements linked to the history of that game. Just, one persons opinion.

I am going to start looking at what I call phased occurrences:

How many times did each number occur in..

Games 1-15

Games 16-30

Games 31-45...etc

I chose the 15 game spread above arbitrarily. So the first thing to do is to find the optimum spread where a consistency can be found. Then use the info for the last equivalent game spread to determine what is due.

On average, how many games should it take for a number to occur x times.

As always, if Ive made a math error, please correct me.

I'm currently working on reporting methods as my emphasis.

The current method I'm working on is what are the most occuring individual numbers occuring in the remaining combinations. And do those most occuring numbers correspond to what's being picked. Well, some of the results are interesting. If I use a game history range of 2 along with another extended history parameter, I don't get a very good correlation. Of the highest values, I'm only getting one number. But, when I get to  a 7 game history, 10 game history, and extended history combined I'm getting two to four of the most occurring numbers showing up in the next draw. So far this is the best. It does make a big difference which game history you use...5 games back, 10 games back...etc.

The reason I'm looking at the most occuring numbers after filtering should be somewhat obvious. Upon, using any filter or reduction method you've arbitrarily said some number are going to come up more than others. It will show in the remaing combinations. And even if you use a random pick technique of the remaning numbers, the more occuring ones will show up more in your answers. Therefore, why not test a small combination of parameters for their accuracy. This methods hopefully will also prove useful in deciding which numbers to wheel in the future.

The work goes on. Trying one combination after another. 

I've been diligently been running all combinations for 5/39 for different filters.

The first set is what I call static filters because they are not time dependent or reflect the current status of any lotto numbers. Things like consecutive numbers, roots, last digits, odd/even, what I call 4 by distribution, 5 by distribution, columns, postional ranges...etc. The only value I see in doing this is not to make a dumb low percentage bet. There are obvious flags of higher probablies in the resultant data, but to narrow the combinations based on this and the associated error rates that come with them seem premature.

The second set of what I call dynamic filters reflect the current status of the individual lotto numbers. Things like how many times they've been picked over a history range, most occuring next pick numbers, pairings...etc. Although not as cut and dried as the static filters, these filters seem to give more impressive results.

The dilema is in the strategy of filters. The mix of how many high pass (98%+) filters combined with low pass filters(lower %) to achieve an acceptable amount of combinations to bet on. Although the LP addesses alot of the filters, nobody seems to really address overall filter strategies in any detail except on individual filters, one by one.

With a new program in the works, the debate continues. I guess we'll decide after the high pass filter program construct is completed and we'll see the average amount of combinations there are left to deal with.

I thought I had done a fairly good job of searching the net until:
