        It's Perfection. I'm sure he's got worse.

          I like this. I feed the punchline, then you deliver the setup. Maybe we can frighten newbies this way

                Wrong! It's "peeing robot".

                  Sickeningly frightful?

                  Frightfully sickening?

                      How do you know what form the RNG they're using takes?
                      It's by far the most common seed in low-budget systems.

                        Why not just increment the stream? Remember, this is just to give people numbers; it's not for the draw itself.

                          Streams? I wouldn't think these systems use them, unless you're meaning something else.

                          If you mean just a stream of numbers (eg, person one gets seed 5, person two gets seed 6, etc) then this isn't much appreciably different than using the time in ns/ms, no?

                              Never mind; apparently you don't know anything about RNGs...
