The longest wait in this draw

38 had not appeared for 22 draws. A number waits about 7 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 ≈282k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 564 winners, 11% more than the 508 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
