1. Description.
3D-Animated Lotto is the only program for PalmPilot devices,
that comprises all about the Lotto game. It can be easily configured to
play all the games from 1/2 to 7/49. You may play with single forms or
combinations up to 12 numbers (e.g. 6+6 additional numbers for the game
6 out of 49). The interface is friendly. .
Here are the three main uses of 3D-Animated Lotto:
to play all the games from 1/2 to 7/49 in a very realistic
and exciting way;
check your forms in the real Lotto game. You can export the
results to the MemoPad of your Palm device and to copy&print them from
the desktop computer;
to fill in your lotto forms. 3DLotto fills in automatically
simple forms or forms-combinations. You are able to use your favorite numbers,
that will be present in all the generated forms.
3DLotto
game is provided with the unique three-dimensional machine for drawing
up the numbers. The numbered balls are being shuttled in a virtual cylinder
and are drown in the same way as you have watched on the TV. The numbers,
drown by the machine are marked in the forms right away, so if you have
guessed all the numbers in the 6/49 game the gambler in you might jump
out of your skin for some time as the prize is USD 932,000.
You play with virtual money. You can stake not more than
31 combinations of numbers in a bid of the registered version of
the program, at the amount of USD 5,700. You can play with simple forms(
e.g. 6 numbers for the game 6/49) and combinations (e.g. 6+? numbers) at
the same time. You can fill some of the lotto-forms, the others can be
filled automatically by 3D-Lotto.
Every single form worth USD 0.20. When you play with
a combination, its price can be calculated by multiplying the number of
the combinations of the numbers in it and it can worth even USD 180 per
combined form. The winnings are also a mathematical function of the game
system( 6/49, 5/35 or whatever).
New in ver. 1.1: Added more security in "6/49" Games. The results
from '6/49days game' will be counted only if they are from ver.
1.1 or higher. Added more lotoforms for unregistered users - 8.
1.1. Shareware Restrictions.
The unregistered version of 3DLotto can be started up
not more than 30 times, the number of the played games is not restricted.
You can enter and play just with 8 forms (if you have
the registered one you can play with up to 31 forms). Just one of these
five forms can be a combination, but not more than +2 numbers (e.g. 6+2
for the lotto game 6/49). The registered version can play with 31 full
combinations of the type 6+6 numbers.
2. Buttons.
LottoForm
ID - you can change the name of the forms, which have been entered
by yourself (e.g. you can write the real numbers of the real forms that
you have). You can pass from a form to another, using the right and left
arrows. The numbers pointed in the current form are displayed inverted
in the matrix below.
System - the system of the game can be changed
from 1/2 to 7/50. You can do it by using the pointers up and down and then
pressing this button. You have to enter here also the minimum profitable
combination for every game, as well as the number of drawings.

The Grid - you point numbers of a drawing or a
form on it. Click out of it for end. The matrix size always fits
the system of the game.
3. Menus.
The menus are clear enough, that is why I shall explain
only some of them:
-
Command...AutoFill
- for automatic generation of up to 31 forms
and /or combinations. You are able to use your
favorite numbers, which are entered by the matrix as well. These numbers
will be present in every form that 3DLotto will "think" for you.
-
Command...Save&Quit -
- it's recommended to exit 3DLotto through this menu. If you do it, next
time you enter, you will start up at the last saved version of 3DLotto,
with the same saved numbers and forms of the last drawing.
-
Command..ViewAll - This is the
easiest way to check your winnings in the forms of real Lotto or to check
the results of your last game. All of your forms are displayed in columns
in the top of the screen. You can pass to the next (previous) part of the
forms table to see the rest of the lotto-forms, using the horizontal pointers,
next to LForm field. The numbers you have guessed in the drawing
set
No are displayed inverted.
The
drawing set No can be changed by using the vertical pointers. The
forms that are combinations are marked by © sign below and they fill two
columns of the matrix.
There is a table with the results of all the drawings
in the bottom of the ViewAll form.
Clicking on a column of the table of lotto-forms will
visualize this form on the whole screen.
Exiting of the ViewAll form can be done by the
above mentioned way or by clicking on Exit button.
Command...Export - You can export the drawing
results to a memo record in your MemoPad of your Palm handheld device.
The memo created will have '3DLotto' string at the beginning of the name.
You can synchronize with desktop computer, copy this memo to MS Word, print
it etc. This is very convenient if you win something from the real Lotto
game and have to go to the lotto office.
-
Game...New and Game...Quick
- these are two ways to play the game you have chosen.
The Quick game is three times quicker. At this
game, once the cylinder has been shuffled, the numbers are drawn right
away.
-
Game...New - the game is realistic but slower. One
number is drawn at every turnover of the 3D- machine and you have more
time to press the horizontal pointers, between every two turnovers,
to see which numbers you have guessed are drawn till this moment.
-
Game...Info
-
In this form you can find the statistics of the games that have been carried
out and the winnings of the last game of the current system. There is a
detailed reference of how much you win if you have guessed certain numbers(
6,5,4,3 guessed numbers for 6/49).

4. All about the combinations( in examples).
When you play with a
simple form in the famous Lotto game 6/49 it costs USD 0.20.
If you play with a combination form, e.g. 6+6=12 numbers
it will cost 912*0.2$=184.4$, because you can choose 912 different groups
of 6 numbers among 12 numbers. Such a combination is an equivalent of 912
simple forms of 6 numbers. If there are 3 guessed numbers in such a combination
you, there will be not just one, but 84 winning groups of 3 numbers.
The reason is the combination of these 3 number with the other 9 ones,
there are 84 groups of 6 numbers, that are possible to be made in this
case.
The calculation of the possible winnings in 3Dlotto is
done in a way similar to the mentioned above, in accordance with
the system of the game (6/49, 5/35, etc.). The possibility to guess all
the 6 numbers in 6/49 game is 1/13983816. This possibility increases several
times, if calculate that the drawing sets are 3. The probability to win
is increased also by playing with 31 6+6 full combinations=28272 lotto-forms
in the registered version of 3DLotto
