The longest wait in this draw

36 had not appeared for 20 draws. A number waits about 14 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 ≈4.6M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 7,055 winners, 8% fewer than the 7.6k an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
