Every number was expected about that many times after 3,080 draws, and they scatter around it. Warm means more than expected, cool means fewer — and a cold number arriving is exactly what cold numbers do.

Its nearest twin

Shares 4 of 5 numbers (2, 5, 8, 21) with the draw of 17 December 2016 — its closest relative in 3,080 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 60% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (27 September 2018): 2, 8, 21 carried over. Chance says 52% of draws repeat at least one number.

The longest wait in this draw

17 had not appeared for 8 draws. A number waits about 8 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 ≈183k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 2,127 winners, 19% more than the 1.8k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
