    We should demand that any new or old system for Play 3 be tested on at least 10

    runs before being posted here. I've seen soo many useless systems proposed,

    which have no chance of making money for anybody. Back up any claim with

    statistics.

  I think most systems sellers who want to show "proof" the system works wait for a good run and show you that.  If a system is simply a matter of making a choice to play say one of four groups, in back testing you pick the right ones, maybe allow yourself a few mistakes. ;-)  It is just as easy to salt a system with past wins.  As I recall Lightning Bolt had winning numbers from the previous draws as one of it's systems, looked real good in back testing. 
  
  On a positive side Lotto P-3/4 by Lottohat has a regression test that shows you how you should have set the filters to have won.  Program is on the list here http://www.lotto-logix.com/lottosoft.html   free demo so you can test the last 10 - 100 draws before you buy, MikeK's Mastermind demo's work that way too, try it and Fire&Ice through the Mastermind link.

  Who is going to enforce that demand and what will be consequences for those that do other wise?  NoLuckYet wanted to do the same for bad predictions.  You got to take the bad with the good and test them before you actually use them.

  I think "demanding" any kind of rules on what systems to post here is a bad idea.  People should feel free to post whatever idea they like, regardless off it being "tested" or not.

  This is a place of free exchange of ideas.

  I have yet to see a system idea posted here that can't be back-tested on your own. (with the exception of pay systems... I skip those anyway).

  I would rather the ideas out in the open, working or not.... you never know when a fresh set of eyes on a formula or method may yield positive results.

  Have an EXCELlent day!

  I agree with Todd that people should feel free to post whatever idea/system they come up with, whether they work or not.  These may provide a foundation or key logic that can be tweaked or expounded on later to develop something new that does work.

  Keep the ideas flowing.

  Too many people come to Lottery Post looking for something that they can't even buy from a professional software developer.  They want a proven system to win money playing the lotteries, not an idea.  They continue to be surprised that winning money playing a lottery is as hard as the odds suggest.

  remember what does not work in arizona does not mean that it will fail in N Y so please keep any new idea or system coming for those of us that want to test it in our own state. Let us be the judge as to the success or failure of it Thanks again for listening.
