DJPIN Yearly Stats 2023, page-5

I think most of us just go on:
1) gut feeling
2) think of a number off the top of ya head
3) punt with your few select numbers throughout the year
4) try and squeeze between already pinned numbers that has a good range of numbers covered

It would be interesting to see if chartists out there would do a nightly guess going by the charts. I know going back cataloging, haspete would do this quite a lot and back in the day he was always a top contender throughout the months.
