No, it's just that your voices know their stuff, and I'm afraid you'll put a tongue ring on your avatar. THAT would be scary.

i suppose you could get ridiculous about it and check the weight on either side of the coin's centerline due to engravings, etc. :p


often mapping the real world onto a human-contrived solution results in...crap.

if the coin flips heads ten times in a row...

if the dice roll seven ten times in a row at a craps table, people will be watching you.

but yeah, in a perfect world, the last flip has no influence over the current flip.

that's why i seed all of my dice personally when i go to vegas...
