Okay everyone, our next challenge is to narrow down our selections. If my math is correct (no guarantees here), each box has a possible 48 combinations in it following the TTT rule that numbers must touch. That means that there are a total of 144 combinations available to us here (in theory). Now, from what I have seen so far, it DOES seem like the corners produce very well. There are a total of 16 corners in each box for a total of 48 possible combinations if one was to play ONLY the corners. Now my challenge to you is this....Who out there can narrow this down to the fewest combinations to play, yielding the best results (the most bang for your buck)? I've tried the "Union Jack" pattern, but only got a couple of hits off of that here in Oklahoma. Who else here can contribute there findings?
One thing that I have noticed is that if you go back to the "China Method" posted by CalifDude quite a while back and make yourself a ten-digit number ranking all 10-digits from hottest to coldest, such as 43560-12789 (todays ranking for Oklahoma), and rearrange them into columns like this:
4 1
3 2
5 7
6 8
0 9
Now, if you will play any combinations that involve the coldest three digits (i.e.-7-8-9 in this example), that seems to produce MANY hits for me so far. Today however, that still gives me 23 combinations to play....getting there, but would like to narrow it down some more.
Who else here has experimented with patterns, etc, to narrow down your choices, and what have you found? Best of luck to everyone out there.
