One of my workups is designed to find pairs of numbers that like to fall together. I call that a "synchronization." The pairing of 282 and 196 has been happening throughout the history of the lottery up through 2015. What makes this attractive is that the 2015 pairing was the last time that 196 dropped. That makes the 2015 pairing a one-hop and a triple sync, which is irresistible. Here's the chart. In order to get this much data on one screen, I had to compress things a little, but the basics of it is pretty straightforward, 282 falls, then 196 falls 37 days later.
