ParticipantThe friend thing is kinda akward.

ParticipantSELECT * FROM Friends WHERE rand()
That would be totally random. Too random. 🙁

ParticipantOh! I know of a bug…
Whenever you post a vid, it doens’t post a link or make the video pop up like it did in MMOTales..Instead you have to copy and paste it and search it…

You have to put in url tags to make links…and Vusys is going to make video tags soon, so I hear.

There’s no such thing as computer created random, sorry. There’s only computer created simulation of random.

ParticipantWell, it’s random because it’s an even calculation, it’d just take the set of names then find the % of displaying an individual name.
I was saying something more like Cheeze’s method, to make it so that some appear more often with leverage.

No. There is no such thing as randomness generated by a computer. Somewhere down the line, it has to take a number from a sequence programmed into it. It simulates randomness, but really it’s just taking the next one in the sequence.

ParticipantThen how do RNGs work?

ParticipantArladerus said: Then how do RNGs work?Technically, it’s still a pattern, algorithm.
I suppose it is simulating randomness, but then if you think about it that way, we’re simulating randomness as well.
Life has no meaning, therefore whatever we do have no meaning either.
We must create meaning.
And that means being random…
…
Sound familiar? :3
