The longest wait in this draw

41 had not appeared for 19 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 ≈2.5M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 2,002 winners, 15% more than the 1.7k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
