The longest wait in this draw

17 had not appeared for 20 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 ≈1.0M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 10,310 winners, 10% more than the 9.4k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
