First, we start with a secret seed number, determined by the PHP code:
$secret_seed = mt_srand(microtime() * 1000000 *1.61803398875);
Run that line, UNEDITED. Then dump $secret_seed. It will be 0. Independant from system settings.
Ah. When writing the technical explanation, I wasn't copy'n'pasting my code. I was writing it off the top of my head, so "$secret_seed =" is not *actually* used in the code in that spot, but rather:
mt_srand(microtime() * 1000000 *1.61803398875);
$secret_seed = mt_rand();
EDIT: On another note: When you are in the username field of the login and press tab, you don't go to the password field.
Thanks - fixed.
I was so confused when I saw a decimal place past the eighth place. I've been doing too much bitcoin.
LOL
EDIT:
EDIT2: Also is it possible to see all sold tickets (with ticket numbers) before the round ends?
When there are more than 2 players in a pot, the game message will tell you how many players are involved. If you buy in, you'll be told your own ticket numbers.
If you're the only person in the pot when time runs out, you get refunded in full.
