The longest wait in this draw

33 had not appeared for 15 draws. A number waits about 10 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 ≈19M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 976 winners, 22% fewer than the 1.2k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
