Its nearest twin

Shares 4 of 6 numbers (17, 26, 28, 30) with the draw of 13 December 2017 — its closest relative in 306 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 50% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (4 August 2018): nothing carried over. Chance says 65% of draws repeat at least one number.

The longest wait in this draw

17 had not appeared for 14 draws. A number waits about 7 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 ≈245k lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 4 — 446 winners, 12% fewer than the 505 an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little less popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
