I generated one ticket for last night's Megamillions and won $7.

I bought $8 worth of tickets for the draw, and this was the most that I have won so far this year. (Last year I won $150 by choosing my own numbers

Can you use the Browser Compatibility Test, and click the Send to Administrator button to send me a copy of the report? I'll test it using your same config. Maybe there was a momentary problem that has resolved itself, but I'd like to know for sure. Thanks

Hi MichDew. I'll be adding all Keno games, including Michigan for sure. I doubt that I will be adding specialty bets like you're describing, but you never know. There are so many different ways to play various games around the world that it would be tough to simulate all of those. Instead, I may have some kind of custom randomizer that you can specify exactly what you want. (e.g., 4 numbers between 1 and 80 .

Reply #56

MichDew — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 02:41:48 GMT

Todd, Michigan has Keno also, where Michigan draws 22 numbers out of 80 once daily at night. You don't have that listed will you have that in the future.

And also Michigan has Club Keno, where you can play 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 or 9 or 10 spot, which means, you pick like for example a 4 spot where you pick 4 numbers from 1-80 and see how many you can match like 3 out of 4 or 4 out of 4. Will you have that also in the future. So on Keno if I want to only play the 4 spot I wou... [ More ]

Hello All,

The sorting fix has been installed, so you should now only see random numbers sorted correctly.

The Keno games still need to be added, I'm working on that.

Todd — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 21:58:47 GMT

Thank you! That is related to the sorting issue that others have pointed out. I have fixed the issue in my development server, and will be deploying it later today/tonight.

Incidentally, the issue also affected the iPhone edition (since they are based on similar code), and I have fixed the issue there too. So it was good that you all found it

Todd,

I was doing a spot check on the New LP QP for Wisconsin Megabucks 6/49. I selected 50 lines and one of the lines had a duplicate number among the 6. Below is a screen shot, see line 44 has a duplicate number; just happens to be 44:

Great job on the QP though, hope it is fully functional soon.

The curse of knowledge is that the more we know about something, the harder it is for us to explain it to someone who knows nothing about the topic (LP-QPG). We have a hard time being able to imagine what it's like not to know.

We're all guilty of having the curse. We all have something in our life that we know very well - perhaps too well to explain easily. The key is know that the curse exists, and to be able to recognize the challenge before you. Consider every word. Sometimes a word th... [ More ]

Just to be clear, this is not a system, it is a random number generator. If it can help someone win something, that would be AWESOME, but more than anything, it's purpose is to produce very random numbers, i.e., numbers that when taken as a whole do not have artificial patterns in them that are caused by the fact that a computer generated the numbers.

Most RNGs used on Web sites use the default randomizer that is part of the programming language the site is built with. Such randomizers are v... [ More ]

It is really not a big deal -- just another way to choose the game you want to generate numbers for!

One way to select a game: Select the game TYPE (Pick 3, Pick 4, Pick 5, Pick 6, Games with Bonus Numbers, etc.) The other way to select a game: Click the Select by Location button (i.e., GEOGRAPHIC AREA) and then choose the state/province/country from the popup menu.

I think you're getting hung up on terminology.

We ensure that each list of Quick Picks generated has no duplicate tickets, and the numbers on each Quick Pick ticket are sorted for your convenience (except for numbers games such as Pick 3 and Pick 4).

Does the exception for Pick 3/Pick 4 apply to: Duplicate Tickets and Sorting or just Sorting?

I'm asking because items 7 8 from Todays QP Run are duplicates, and it sounds like their shouldn't be.

1. 8-1-1

2. 5-9-0

Honestly, I made no adjustment. I do have to fix the sorting (as mentioned by a few people here) but I have not done it yet. But if it's working now, who am I to question that?

On a side note, I'm really upset because I can't locate my copy of CoverMaster. I never installed it after changing to a new PC, and now I can't find it! As the Master of all Lottery Links (a possible title for you?) can you recommend the best place to download it? Thanks

Todd — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 22:00:49 GMT

This is a Quick Picks generator, not anything that looks at previous drawings. In fact, having a Quick Picks generator look at past results would be a very bad idea, because the numbers would not be random.

One highlight of the Quick Picks Generator is its use of an advanced cryptographic library to generate the random numbers -- something I doubt you'll find many other places.

I do have tools available online right now that look at past history -- they are some of the best available. (The... [ More ]

Yes, provided a set of lines fits any parameters CoverMaster is capable of working with the program will auto adjust itself to the number of numbers in a line, the highest number among the lines and the number of lines.

After Selecting Geographic Area: You have to Select Game Type (P3, P4, etc.)

The next step is to Select the Number of Combinations you want Generated.

After the QPG Generates the QP's you are presented with the Combinations you requested.

At the bottom of the page is a Link to Game Info for the Geographic Area Selected.

With that in mind: I was thinking that you may be using the Game History for the Geographic Area Selected to Generate Combinations, so I thought I'd ask i... [ More ]

The simple, interactive game selector lets you choose the game either by game type or by geographic area.

I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that you selected Pick 4 and it did not generate the Pick 4 numbers?

Daily 4 is just Texas' name for their Pick 4 game. If you select Pick 4 (or Pick 3 for that matter) from the first page, it is exactly the same thing as navigating to your individual state and selecting the specific game name there.
