The longest wait in this draw

39 had not appeared for 25 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 ≈548k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: match_3_0_b — 2,099 winners, 2% more than the 2.1k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
