I guess in the event that the software was at one time fair, you will be able to identify when it stopped being fair by analysing data from each day (and depending on the amount of data that you actually have), as although it is clear that the software was behaving unfairly for a period on and before April 30 2006, it was not necessarily unfair on say January 1: otherwise it might have been noticed then. I think it reasonable to assume that this has been going on for a few weeks but not necessarily months.
I'm also interested that the Hot Pepper and Fire and Ice casinos, outside of the EH group of casinos, althought not as thoroughly tested as EH, did not appear to have aberrant (and indeed abhorrent) doubling results.
I am somewhat surprised at English Harbour's early statement about the results being consistent with a fair game as it is quite clear that the game was not fair (not withstanding that results indicate that they clearly changed the game early on 1 May, although their carefully worded statement did not explicitly denied that they had not) , and that statement is now looking premature with analysis to be conducted here.
