EuroMillions v.1

Three readings of the history, one grid, five numbers to choose.

1 · What this page gives you

Tychefy reads every official EuroMillions draw ever held, more than 1,960 of them, in three different ways. Each reading hands back twelve numbers out of the fifty. Above them sits a grid that shows which numbers all three readings landed on.

You are working towards five numbers. The two Lucky Stars are a separate page, with their own guide.

2 · What you press

One button: Enter for Shortlists.

You never type the draw. The white ticket is the last official EuroMillions result, loaded for you. It is the only real draw on the page; everything below it is calculated. The run takes about a minute, so keep the page open.

3 · Start with the grid

The grid holds all fifty numbers. How bright a number is tells you how many of the three readings put it forward. The ones all three agreed on are repeated in larger circles beside it, so you cannot miss them.

• 47
  Solid gold — all three readings. This is where you start. Most runs give you between two and six.
• 8
  Pale gold — two of the three. The small figure in the corner is the count.
• 12
  Outlined — one reading only.
• 19
  Dashed — considered, not shortlisted. It was in the candidate pool, but no reading picked it up.
• 31
  Faded — left out entirely.

Tap any number, in the grid or in any list below it, and every copy of it on the page lights up. That shows you which shortlists carry it and where it sits in each one.

4 · Then read the five gold labels

Underneath the grid are the five readings the grid is built from.

• Historical Memory AI Prior — weighs the whole history and narrows the fifty to a ranked pool of twenty-five. This is the field the three readings work from.
• A1 — numbers drawn most often and most recently, with some weight for overdue ones. The momentum reading.
• A2 — numbers that tend to appear together, and those that historically follow the latest draw. The sequence reading.
• A3 — overdue numbers, balanced across the five zones of the board, 1–10 up to 41–50. The contrarian reading.
• Unique numbers — everything above, merged. Every number at least one reading selected, counted once.

5 · What you do with it

You need five numbers. Nothing on the page will choose them for you, and there is no correct answer. This is a workable way through:

1. Start with the gold numbers, the ones all three readings agreed on. In this run that is 10, 29, 30 and 47.
2. If that leaves you short of five, fill from the pale gold ones, where two readings out of three agreed.
3. If there are more than five, choose between them. The descriptions of A1, A2 and A3 are there for exactly this: favour the reading whose logic convinces you.
4. Write down what you chose. Next week you will be able to see how it did.

6 · How you know whether it worked

Every run is saved automatically and privately under My saved runs, and the five most recent are kept. Further down the same page, Model performance scores those runs for you.

Each run is named by its base draw, the last result the models had seen when you saved it, and is scored against the next draw, the one that actually followed. Gold tiles are the numbers that came out.

Next to each result is the figure you would expect from a selection of that size. It is there so a score can be read in context: a long list will naturally hold more of the drawn numbers than a short one, so the two are not compared on the same footing.
