In Response To: Baffle Box Update (Bob Koca)

That's true, but someone like you could easily take care of this problem and set reasonable parameters and a reasonable number of trials. I would be willing to give 2 to 1 that randomness would be within WHATEVER RANGE Bob Koca sets (I would also trust a few others I know that I am sure would be able to set fair numbers including Xavier, Stick, Jake, Danny K., Doug Zare, Art Benjamin, David Rockwell, Nack, and a few others here I have confidence would know how to set the parameters.)

But aside from the bet, all things being equal, is there anyone that could logically argue that the odds of getting true random rolls is likely to be higher if you don't use a baffle box than if you did? I think that's the point relative to this issue.
