I think Lotto 6/49 has been going in Germany for 50 years and was invented there. This should be the main theme of a Lotto 6/49 entry.

- Was it actually called Lotto 6/49? If so then perhaps a Lotto 6/49 (Germany) article can be created. 23skidoo 01:57, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Slight error in reported odds
Hi - I have written most of the Lottery Math article, and, though not really important, there's a slight error in this article's reported odds for 5 balls (and no bonus ball). You say that it's 1 in 55,492 - but I have calculated it as 166474/3 = 55491.3333 recurring (see bonus ball section), which rounds to 1 in 55,491. I am confident I am right about this, because I have calculated all outcomes for this lottery as fractions, and they add up to 1 exactly (as they should). --New Thought 00:30, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
- A very reasonable explanation for this has been given here.--New Thought 15:58, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
