109times

Every number was expected about that many times after 83 draws, and they scatter around it. Warm means more than expected, cool means fewer — and a cold number arriving is exactly what cold numbers do.

Its nearest twin

Shares 2 of 5 numbers (1, 8) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 18 July 2018 — its closest relative in 83 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (29 August 2018): nothing carried over. Chance says 41% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: 10 repeated (10% expected).

Sum and shape

93

The longest wait in this draw

14 had not appeared for 26 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

    The rings take the ≈502k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_3_0_b — 2,026 winners, 8% more than the 1.9k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
