Sum and shape

The longest wait in this draw

11 had not appeared for 37 draws. A number waits about 9 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈2.6M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 16,923 winners, 22% more than the 14k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
