Hello,
The lottery results are in and these are the results:
# The seven numbers from Croatian Lottery Loto 7 on July 6th, 2024
12 13 15 18 24 27 32
# The seven numbers from Euro-Millions on July 5th, 2024
11 13 29 31 47 1 11
# Six numbers from the US Mega Millions on July 5th, 2024
6 15 32 54 67 4
# The nine numbers from the Japanese Lotto 7 on July 5th, 2024
5 7 22 29 30 32 36 3 33
Unfortunately, there was an operator error. In the 2024.seeds, I had a leading new line, which created a wrong string
./12.13.15.18.24.27.32./1.11.11.13.29.31.47./4.6.15.32.54.67./3.5.7.22.29.30.32.33.36./
(see the leading ./)
The correct string is
12.13.15.18.24.27.32./1.11.11.13.29.31.47./4.6.15.32.54.67./3.5.7.22.29.30.32.33.36./
I've corrected the 2024.seeds file. Rich Salz, who is the implementor and maintainer of the code, will be informed about this issue.
The original list sent out had 163 names, but the 2024.names was 1 name shorter, and that was corrected as well.
With using corrected seeds, the RFC 3797 algorithm produces the following list:
./pick -s 2024.seeds -n 2024.names -c 15 -d
Read 163 names
Need approximately 69.5 bits of entropy
Key string is 12.13.15.18.24.27.32./1.11.11.13.29.31.47./4.6.15.32.54.67./3.5.7.22.29.30.32.33.36./

I apologize for the operator error and thanks to Martin Thomson, who informed me quickly about the discrepancy in the results. I will inform the selected members via email.
This mail starts a challenge period. The challenge period will end on July 17th, 2024. If you wish to challenge this selection, see Section 4.17 of RFC 8713 for the process to follow (in short: email me).
