Mistakes in database...

[Dennis Bassboss]

Many sites on the net giving lotto draws or stats are loaded with mistakes...one that comes to mind that I saw a couple of weeks back is lotto buddy.....Be carefull of these sites...you might get garbage..and garbage in=garbage out

Hopefully they'll correct their mistakes for their own benefit and at the same time for the benefit of all....

Dennis:

I've checked some of those self proclaimed "great" lottery programs you could purchase as a trial... ...NONE of them had 100% data integrity... ...LOTTERY DIRECTOR was almost 100% (better than most). I identified and reported those errors which were corrected and it should still be 100% accurate for 6/49 now. BCLC has a 100% correct record of the 6/49 draw. I did not confirm Super 7. For most customers who are mostly ignorant of many things and dreamers, errors in the data are not going to help them anyway.

GIGO is so true.

Getting correct data is important... ...I guess there is no one place where you could get completely reliable data for the more popular games. I think it would be a challenging project. There are so many sites posting partial results and the entire history is simply not available.
