The longest wait in this draw

21 had not appeared for 27 draws. A number waits about 10 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 ≈570k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_2_1_b — 3,493 winners, 2% fewer than the 3.6k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
