The longest wait in this draw

31 had not appeared for 12 draws. A number waits about 8 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →

    The rings take the ≈101k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 913 winners, 7% fewer than the 984 an even spread gives. The real crowd and an even spread agreed closely on this draw.
