New WR C(6,17,4,5)=66

[lottoarchitect]

Today I made this wheel in 66 tickets!!! As far as I know the current world record is 70. I'll work on the other 4if5 wheels as well to check if I can improve them more and I'll post the results.

cheers

Congratulations LA for your new World Record wheel!

Could you publish the numbers of your wheel to see it?

Thank you

 

[lottoarchitect]

I'll post it but have to make sure first I cannot reduce it further Also the wheel will be in the next database version of the program including even better open-cover wheels for this type of wheel, due to this improvement.

 

[Grandmaster]

Wheel generator 1.4 is doing an excellent work reducing wheels!

 

[Grandmaster]

Nick Koutras has the world record wheel C(6,15,4,5)=40, the previous record was C(6,15,4,5)=41..

Maybe N. Koutras has a close cover to your new record C(6,17,4,5)=66 but for now I see very dificult someone can achieve this new w r wheel.

 

[lottoarchitect]

C(6,15,4,5)=40? I never heard of this. Does Nick Koutras has a site that lists his bounds?

 

[Grandmaster]

Lottoarchitect,

I actually saw Nick Koutras w record wheel in one of your recommended sites for world record wheels.

Rade belic repository site, in the section improvement list.

 

[lottoarchitect]

True, I had a look at the improvements list and says 40.

 

[lottoarchitect]

Ok, here is the WR C(6,17,4,5)=66, I couldn't improve it more
unfortunately. Hope you don't improve it soon again... lol
Optimized with Wheel Generator for better multiple hits

LA,

Thank you for posting the new world record wheel C(6,17,4,5)=66, well done !

 

[lottoarchitect]

Thanks Grandmaster, I hope more WR wheels will follow soon too!

 

[Grandmaster]

Lottoarchitect,

I recommend you send your record to Rade Belic repository to the improvement list, and form part of the elite people that create world record wheels.

 

[lottoarchitect]

Rade Belic does not accept wheels anymore. At least not for now. I have contacted him sometime ago and never got an answer. If I remember well, the e-mail was invalid or something. I'll contact Dragan for this wheel.

 

[Grandmaster]

LA,

There is no doubt that this new record wheel is yours, and recognition is necessary..

You could also add your wheel to the new section of forum Nick Koutras and LT will open soon.

 

[lottoarchitect]

Sure, they can add it as well. I was about to say that.

 

[Grandmaster]

Lottoarchitect,

I can't understand how you did such a record using Covermaster, I tried it for an hour and with 66 tickets I only obtained 98% coverage with 97 missing tickets.

I believe the problem was solved with wheel generator 1.4.

Any chance Lotto architect users could get wheel generator 1.4 in next version?

 

[lottoarchitect]

I used the power of both programs. CoverMaster allows quick optimization but it gets stuck and cannot cover more. WG has strong optimization but unfortunately it is slow to let it work alone a full wheel from scratch. So, I use WG to bypass stuck problems in CoverMaster as did happen with this wheel. WG is still in experimental & development level. I find it really hard to be in the next version of Lotto Architect. What will be in the next version is a full wheel analysis derived from WG report. The best would be to find out how CoverMaster performs its quick optimization and combine the power of both programs in one application. That would be definitely an ultra-fast WR wheel generator tool and without the need to switch between two programs.

 

[Grandmaster]

Thank you for fast explanation,

If you find the reason why Covermaster allows quick optimization and applied it to Wheel Generator then a new engine will built very fast world record wheels..

Keep the good work!
