"Are you saying that every one here that charts the drawings and tracks and studies their games numbers are all delusional?"
If they do it because they think it will help them predict a future event that's random, yes. You can't predict things that are random, period. If you think you can you're delusional.
""History repeats itself." So yes, past results can predict future random events."
Are you telling me that you think all of history is just a long series of random events? Or do you recognize that some events are random and others are the result of human behavior, or the laws of physics, and other things that aren't random? Almost any idiot can tell you that there's going to be another war, or that there will be another high tide tomorrow because they aren't the result of random events. Nobody can predict future random events. The best they can do is get lucky and make a guess that turns out to be right.
"Since most of the time, the 5 (white ball) numbers do not contain sets of 3,4,or 5 consecutive numbers removing them from the play field would increase your chances and improve your odds."
Most of the time the winning combination doesn't contain a 7. Most of the time the winning combination doesn't contain a 23. Most of the time the winning combination doesn't contain a 44. And so on, for every number in the matrix. The same is true for all odd or all even, all birthday numbers, all non-birthday numbers. And so on. There's not a single number, combination, or pattern of numbers that happens in most drawings simply because there are so many other numbers, combinations, and patterns of numbers that are possible. The logic in your statement is exactly the same as the logic that would tell you not to have played any combination that hadn't yet won because it probably won't win, but at some point those combinations all became winners. And in all of those drawings (since the current matrix started) 292,201,337 other combinations didn't win.
"Instead of just saying it, educate us on exactly how test drawings effect the official drawings"
To be fair, some of the people who don't like test drawings are only bothered because they think it may deprive them of some of the historical data. If they can't get the information, they're right about not having all of the data. Of course I don't recall anyone complaining that using a different set of balls or a different ball machine somehow screws things up, but it should be obvious that even if past results offered useful insight no analysis of past drawings based on all machines and ball sets can could offer useful insight into the future results for oe specific ball set or machine.
Here's a question for the people who think that the tests actually affect the probability of any particular number being drawn in the official drawing. How many times can you test flip a coin before the next flip won't have a 50/50 chance of coming up heads or tails?
"then why are so many players CHECKING THE HISTORY"
Are you claiming that because a lot of people think that checking past results can help them predict future results it therefore does help them predict future results? A lot of people go to psychics, too. Do you think psychics can predict the future, or do we need more people to consult psychics before that will work?
