For you non CompE/EE types, they say there's no such thing as a truly random computer generated number because the machine will use some kind of repeatable alogrithm to generate the result. To get around this, programmers usually seed the alogrithm off the computer's system time, which in theory would make it real random b/c the computer/user could ask for the number at any point in time.
That said, the chances are small, but it's entirely possible the programmers didn't do a "good" job of seeding the randomness of the EWoFM and some patterns exist. Plus i really really want a +9 wep.
The psychological factor says, since i really want a pattern to exist i'll trick myself into believe that a pattern exists. NO harm trying though right?
