    This is some visual noise representing 250k (500x500 pixels) runs of PO's PRNG (50:50 here - 50% to hit/miss).

    Since some people complain that PO's RNG is broken, I decided to make this, and as you can see, there are no real patterns as to speak of. The numbers are created in the same environment as PO, using the exact same code. The image is created with some browser magic.

    Of course this is just 1:2 - 50% (the black spots indicate when a move like Zap Cannon would hit). If you're interested in me making more of these (for random crit chances, etc), ask in the thread.

    It didn't take that much time (~30 minutes) as I already had a skeleton which could create these kind of images depending on the given data. But thanks :]

    "I see a lot of diagonal lines. That must mean it's not random and clearly biased."

    Am I complaining about it right?
