Derren Brown – Kebablog

So, it has happened. Chance has picked the combination. The ticket has been bought, like Derren Brown last week I wont reveal it until the BBC have shown the result.

I don’t want to remember these numbers so will only show any of the numbers that actually do turn up.

So wish me, my VMWare Dos PC and a program written using Borland Turbo C++ 3.0 luck.

(I fully accept many an internet site will or may have already done something similar – so apologies if you hate me now)

/edit: Well I got 2 numbers and a few near misses. But I think the problem was a imbalance in my thinking and telepathic control over the C++ RND command. The imbalance was entirely due to my hearing around 3 seconds of Ph*l C*ll*ns ‘singing’ easy lover.

I shall try again some day and hopefully not have to listen to the evil of said short annoying drummer.

After watching Derran Brown ‘predict’ the lottery this week I think I may have a go myself.

However rather than use 24 people and automatic writing I be using my tried and trusted pseudo random lottery predictor program* I wrote many years ago in C++. However 2 things are a problem at the moment.

1) The program only worked on MS-DOS
2) Where the hell is the program∆ (apart from the floppies I have – disks that is – please no more viagra links).

So wish me luck, in a) finding and installing a dos program on my Mac b) winning.

*as in tried and working, not that is ever won me any money. Basically it was written before Camelot introduced lucky dips. Once that came out it made my program irrelevant, oh well.

∆it may be lurking on a webpage somewhere!

/edit: found it, it was on my XP backup which in turn was lurking on my Virtualised server!

/edit2: I now have a virtualised DOS PC (MS-Dos 6.22) so will run the lot.exe app on that.
