Hi Bayes,

The way you have set it out is just fine.  I am used to underlining sections, but it may be
unnecessary in the way you have set it out.

It's not set in stone how a session starts.  When testing I decided to assume A would be
the chosen column.  In your example column A as you have correctly shown requires a 3D,
but the * indicates a correct result and instead it should show ^ which donates a chosen
dozen, with the correct result 1D*, as the 1st dozen 9 came in.

On the line showing 16, 2D*  1D^  3D.

The line showing 30 is correct.

[Bayes]

Ok, it makes more sense that the very first selection should be marked ^ and not *, but you said in a previous post that:

When starting the Dozen project the assumption is that column A will have the correct
result.

Whereas it should be that "column A should contain the chosen dozen"

I'll post a few more spins later just so you can check that I've got it 100%.

[Richard]

Sorry Bayes, what I meant to say was it is assumed that by choosing the A column on the
first bet will hopefully result in the first win.

I think you are 100% there and will check your spins as soon as you post them.

Hi Richard,

Here are some spins taken from Dublin Bet, this time I've left gaps to show the sections.

You seem to have changed the rules regarding 2 situations (either the digit sum > 36 or col A and col B have the same dozen) with the latest update to your website. In these cases didn't you say to take the correct result from the previous section if a bet wasn't possible in the current section?

A simple "no-bet" is easier to deal with from a programming point of view, so it suits me.

Yes Bayes, what you have stated is what I intended to convey rather poorly! Unfortunately
my command of the English language is deteriorating due to roulette fatigue 

As you completely understand the Dozen project would you be able on a scale of 1 to 10
be able tell me the degree of difficulty in having the project coded? Taking 1 to be no
problem.

It appears the smilies are working :)    well almost :(

Glad to hear I've got it nailed. 

Actually, the trickiest part is often understanding the 'specification', so now I have that clear I would say maybe 5-7? It's not going to be trivial, but not too hard either.

Do you have your own spins you want me to test against? I have a few thousand from wiesbaden and can easily get more.

[Richard]

Bayes,

Most probably 7 is about right.

If you were to send me some of your spins I will do them by hand and then we can compare
the results.

Thanks
Richard

Richard,

I have uploaded some spins here:

link:://rouletteforum.cc/other-software/utility-for-wiesbaden-spins/

[Richard]

Bayes,

I'm having trouble downloading the spins. I've had problems with other downloads and
warnings from my security, it's a real pain.

If it's ok with you I'll continue with spielbank 2.1.2010 which follows on from pages 4A & 4B
on the website.

[Bayes]

Richard,

Actually, I've just realized that the link I gave you was for downloading the program, not the spins. Your security might have objected because the zip contained an exe (executable file). I have uploaded the spins file here, it might be worth trying this, but if you can't download it, no worries.

[Richard]

Thanks i've got the spins

[Bayes]

I should have the program written some time this week, but don't sue me if I haven't. 
The problem with roulette is that there are always more avenues to explore, and sometimes I bite off more than I can chew.

[Bayes]

Richard,

In the event of a zero, do you just take the loss and start a new section? or do you carry on and wait for the section to complete? I assume that if a zero comes at any other time you just ignore it.

Bayes,

I'm very grateful for you writing the program, so slow but sure would be great

I'm working my way through the spins, gives me something useful to do when I'm
travelling.

With regard to the zero's I 'll give the following example from the spins you gave me :

[table=,]
spins,Group,A col,B col,C col,Result
12,L,2D,1D*^,1D,+
0,,1D,2D,3D,-
17,G,3D,2D*^,1D,+
[/table]

Hi Richard,

It's tough to deduce a general rule from one example, help me out here! 

Does it mean you DO see a section through to 'completion' when you're interrupted by a zero?
