Sum and shape

The longest wait in this draw

55 had not appeared for 36 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

Gap & “Overdue” Tracker →

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.3M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 555 winners, 10% fewer than the 617 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
