The longest wait in this draw

23 had not appeared for 21 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 ≈28M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 1,789,559 winners, 48% more than the 1.2M an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably more 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.
