If there is anything to V-Dude's "if you're meant to" mantra, I got that covered with my quick pick for the PB... just one, no more systems for me. It's my theory that the only possible involvement of God in the lottery is to test the 10th commandment (the one about coveting your neighbor's posessions)... and to this end there is plenty of cases where some would think a winner didn't deserve to win ("Action" Jack-son Whittaker comes to mind)... If you can not let that bug you, then I think there ends God's involvement in a manmade moneymaking racket. Of course that's just personal opinion ;-)
As for Chaos... that was yet another concept I don't fully understand and tried to apply to the powerball numbers. I gave up... not smart enough... of course no one has been to date, so it's not all that bad.
Here are a few other theories if anyone has desire to explore, have at it... I don't have the motivation anymore...
1.) Trigonometry... use AutoCAD to create a grid of perfect squares. create a triangle with the last 3 draw numbers... see if any formula can accurately predict the swept angle to the next number... one for backtesting for sure...
2.) Neural Networks... not standard ones... Pattern Classification nets... let the computer find patterns or "coincidences"
3.) develop a system that utilizes all currently accepted systems (probably need winhunter for that) to boil down to just one pick.
good luck pacattack05, I wish you better luck than I had in my 3 year "dry run" ;-)
