Overview

On Wednesday midday, May 13, 2026, 958 landed again after 1686 days out of the results in the Illinois draw record. By the expected cadence of 1 in 1,000 draws (~500 days), the interval is a long-gap event.

A Long-Awaited Return

The historical record indicates that 958 has been absent for 1686 days, placing it among the least active combinations in the current window. Even without a precise last-date reference, the length of the gap is sufficient to classify the return as a low-frequency event.

A Subtle Pattern in the Digits

A small echo in the digits: 5 reappeared in 958 and again in 566. One repeat alone does not imply continuation. Repetition matters most when it persists across days.

Combo Profile

As a digit pattern, 958 uses 3 distinct digits and a moderate spread from 5 to 9.

Why Droughts Matter

A long drought is descriptive rather than predictive. It records variance across time and helps analysts evaluate whether outcomes are tracking within expected frequency bands or drifting into the tails of the distribution.

Data Notes

Results are evaluated against historical frequency baselines where available. The goal is documentation and context rather than prediction.

From Stepzero

Stepzero produces these reports to provide a calm, evidence-first record of how draw patterns unfold over time. The aim is clarity and continuity - a reference point for long-horizon tracking rather than a call to action.

Adding to the Long-Term Record

The return of 958 expands the archive by one more data point. It is the accumulation of these entries, not a single draw, that defines the reliability of long-horizon analysis.
