Origin Point

The origin point of a drought is the last draw the combination appeared in. Every drought count is measured from that draw forward.

Glossary term

Origin point marks the clean baseline where structural tracking starts.

Why It Matters

When you know a drought's origin point, you can point to the exact draw the current gap started counting from. That's what makes the number verifiable.

How Stepzero Uses It

Stepzero records the origin point for every drought so any 'draws since last hit' number links back to a real, dated draw you can look up.

Example

If 4-5-6 last appeared on 2025-01-14 and today is 2026-01-14, that January 14 draw is the origin point of the current drought.
