  • Where chance put the count

The rings take the ≈15M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 2 — 22,692 winners, 96% fewer than the 539k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were noticeably less popular than average — a draw full of birthdays makes more small winners, a draw of high numbers fewer. That is the crowd, not the machine.
