Has the German Lotto (Gewinnzahlen) changed?

[PAB]

I keep a record of the German Lotto ( Gewinnzahlen LOTTO 6aus49 ) with all the results from Draw 1 on Sunday the 09 Oct 1955. I noticed that last night's draw had a Bonus number of 0. It appears that the Bonus ball has changed from the 01 May 2013 from one being drawn from the pool of 49 numbers to something like numbers 0 to 9 from a different pool of numbers.
Can anybody clarify this for me please?

I just spotted this. Check this translated link.

It appears the new number pool is from 0 to 9 from May 4th according to the above translation. Still a bit confusing in the translation though.

This site will enter quick picks randomly, only ever using (what it calls the powerball) values from 0 to 9.

Thanks for the reply Frank.

The link didn't work!
The only reason I keep the data for this is because it was an actual 649 Lotto with 1 Bonus ball and at the moment has 3,661 draws. I just thought that because it was an a actual Lotto that it would make for good testing.
I assume then that they have scrapped the 1-49 Bonus ball and replaced it with a PowerBall.
I will investigate further.
Thanks Frank.

Well I double checked and triple checked that it worked. That's IPads for you! I did say I wouldn't use IPad for this site, and now you know why. It can't cope with copy/paste links successfully.

This is the same link but simplified..

It works for me on PC..

Hi Frank,

...Still a bit confusing in the translation though.

The link works, and as you said, it is a bit ambiguous and misleading .
