Title: RNG's?? Post by: bhoywonder on May 23, 2006, 12:00:48 AM Okay being fairly new here this may have been covered before?
Just wondered how these RNG systems work?Who makes em?Or is it a big dark secret?Am i opening up Pandora's box even mentioning them? It's just that some networks appear more sedate and others are lets say a little creative..lol... I like pondering maths problems and even once managed to complete a sukoku puzzle..but i heard that computers dont do random... Discuss?? Title: Re: RNG's?? Post by: Josh on May 23, 2006, 12:24:08 AM It's a matter of opinion, but I don't believe in RNG's, especially those used in slot machines, as they are governed by computer programmes, and hense code, and anything that is coded, by definition can not be random.
Random; Without a governing design, method, or purpose; unsystematically Title: Re: RNG's?? Post by: Nem on May 23, 2006, 12:38:19 AM Why has a mod moved this thread to here? Cant we have this thread in the General Discussion

Title: Re: RNG's?? Post by: matt674 on May 23, 2006, 07:19:06 AM I believe on pokerstars they have a little pigmy man with tourettes who sits in a room watching over all the tables simultaneously. He just shouts out cards at random and hey presto - whichever table has a flop to be dealt at that time gets the cards he shouts out.
If he's in a bad mood then beware there could be trouble!! There was one time that someone shot him with a blowdart to the backside which meant he couldnt sit down for a whole week!! He blamed it on us monkeys and all we got for a whole week was badbeat after badbeat, it wasnt a pretty sight :( To get our own back we added an extra foot of vine to the tree swing just outside his house so next time he left home........ THUD!! Thats probably another weeks worth of badbeats when he reads this but the look on his face as he hit the ground when swinging to work was priceless!! :D (of course i may be wrong.......)

Title: Re: RNG's?? Post by: stallyon on May 24, 2006, 11:22:45 AM correct me if i'm wrong but dont most RNGs only calculate the next random card to be dealt and not calculate the position of all cards in the deck then deal these out in turn? surely this is a cock-eyed way of doing this...
