The longest wait in this draw

16 had not appeared for 6 draws. A number waits about 7 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →

How many people held it

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈46k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 — 560 winners, 10% fewer than the 623 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
