If somebody really wants to help, there is one thing that would be a ginormous help. My workups produce about 160 or so numbers. That's a LOT of numbers! I have been deflating them by hand using an editor/macros/elbow-grease. This takes me an extra thirty - fourty-five minutes. If any of you have a Gold or Platinum membership, you can do it in a jif by going to the "Systems" button in the bar at the top of the page and hitting the "Deflate 3 Number Set Reduction" button. Then just copy and paste in the following:
Never mind the words and dashes, the Deflator will ignore those. Then, just copy and paste the output of the deflator back here. My hope is that it will become apparent very quickly which tier(s) is/are the hot ones so we can just post/play those. I'm doing this by hand every day (my post above is the result for today's day draw) but you could save me hours of hard work and maybe benefit everybody if it works out. My worry is that when I do this by hand, I am taking a shortcut and throwing out the lower tiers and I'm afraid I'm missing something important.
Is anybody willing to try it for a couple days even? You have no idea how much I would appreciate it! Thanks in advance.

Mike and Factor:
Just a quickie lesson, what does all of those tiers mean? I'm just assuming tier 5 means a higher probability of that number hitting today!
The word "tier" is just terminology that means - "How many times did combos of this number show up in the list?" So, if a number and all it's combos showed up 4 times in the list, that is a "Tier 4" number. Nothing more complicated than that. What I am afraid of is that I'm missing stuff when I "deflate" the numbers by hand because I am taking a shortcut to reduce the amount of handwork. The deflating utility on this site is brilliant. Kudos to Todd. And thanks again to Mike.
What I'd like to see is a trend of some particular tier of numbers hitting. The higher the tier number, the better, because that means fewer numbers to play. <crosses fingers>

P.S. I forgot to add - Thank you to the rest of you for bearing with me while we run this experiment. I know that I'm posting a lot of numbers and I apologize for that, but that's the raw output of my best workups. The idea is to see if we can find a way to cull the list and maybe find the winners. Since Mike has graciously offered to help, I'd like to give it a try. Thank you in advance for your forbearance!
