First run

After installation on first run Stonito Lotto does not have any lotto game installed.
First you are presented with a choice of using any of the predefined lotto games in your collection of games.
This is done by simply selecting one or more from the list.
All of them come with an extensive history of drawings going back decades in the past.
You will maybe have to add a few most recent rounds but it is not a tedious task.
 
If you don't want to import any of the lotto games from the list, than you will be presented the choice to add one game manually.
