The longest wait in this draw

19 had not appeared for 15 draws. A number waits about 8 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈45M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 3 — 1,116 winners, 15% fewer than the 1.3k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
