Which numbers go first
What's missing from a part-used series shows what people bid for. SPL is 53.5% gone — the clearest read of the open series.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 digit (1-9) | 9 | 9 | 100% |
| 2 digits (10-99) | 90 | 90 | 100% |
| 3 digits (100-999) | 900 | 900 | 100% |
| 4 digits (1000-9999) | 9,000 | 4,352 | 48.4% |
| Same digit repeated | 36 | 36 | 100% |

| Consecutive runs | 28 | 22 | 78.6% |
| Contains an 8, no 4 | 2,465 | 1,075 | 43.6% |
| Contains a 4 | 3,439 | 2,079 | 60.5% |
| No 4 and no 8 | 4,095 | 2,197 | 53.7% |

Every one- and two-digit number in SPL is gone, and so is every repeated-digit number.

What each exercise takes out

"Left the pool" means LTA stopped offering a number — almost always because someone won it. LTA doesn't publish bid results. Unused numbers return after a year and are counted separately.
The check letter, worked out
A plate's last letter is a check letter. LTA doesn't publish the rule, but its bidding list
prints the letter beside every number, so we can test one: weights
9, 4, 5, 4, 3, 2 on the prefix's last two letters and the four
digits, summed, modulo 19, looked up in AZYXUTSRPMLKJHGEDCB. It matches
all 13,837 plates in the
last capture, and every capture re-checks it.
Pad the number to four digits for the calculation: SPM103 is SPM0103.
Verified against LTA's data, not confirmed by LTA.
How the bidding works
Bidding is weekly: Friday 1:00 am to Monday 4:30 pm, results Wednesday noon. A new series gets a longer main exercise, Friday to the following Wednesday.
Minimum bid $1,000 incl. GST, plus an $18.53 non-refundable fee. One bid lists up to three numbers and wins at most one. Losing bids are refunded. A won number is valid for a year and can't be transferred.
Bid on OneMotoring. EVolt is not connected to LTA.
