In Response To: Transparent and Non Transparent Draws (Paul Weaver)

Here are a few items that would go a long way towards convincing me that a computerized draw was fair.

  1. Open source software — Whether it is a spreadsheet macro, or a C++ program, the source code for the software should be published.
  2. Public draw of RNG seed — The seed used by the random number generator involved in the process should be publicly chosen.
  3. Audit trail — Enough records should be kept so that the process can be checked later by anyone who cares to do so.
