The longest wait in this draw

36 had not appeared for 24 draws. A number waits about 7 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →

How many people held it

    The rings take the ≈5.8M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 11,641 winners, 3% fewer than the 12k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
