The longest wait in this draw

40 had not appeared for 14 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 ≈470k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_2_1_b — 2,871 winners, 2% fewer than the 2.9k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
