The longest wait in this draw

30 had not appeared for 17 draws. A number waits about 9 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 ≈2.1M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 12,226 winners, 7% more than the 11k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
