is that seeding thing from knowledge of this specific program or just a guess? cos when i write a prog with random numbers - including my bg clone esp for multi player dueling (no its not even approaching alpha stages yet,and never will graphicaly) i always put either a PID (in unix) or the system clock into the seed, either way it is different each time. i thought it was calculated on entering the room, since it has to be calculated some time and its either then or on starting dialogue with the demon. except, according to dundee, its neither but is calculated on the fly.

thank god i dont have to worry about quest scripting for a multi-player duel.
