The longest wait in this draw

28 had not appeared for 24 draws. A number waits about 8 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

  • Winners, log scale
  • Prize each, log scale
  • Where chance put the count

The rings take the ≈25M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: 4 — 17,906 winners, 26% fewer than the 24k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably less popular than average — a draw full of birthdays makes more small winners, a draw of high numbers fewer. That is the crowd, not the machine.
