Rotation of dice

It's only GNU, and not XG, that rotates dice on a 36x36 basis.

On the other hand, there's an argument for standardizing the number of trials to be one of a small number of alternatives: If instead you just stop when the "confidence level" satisfies you, then the confidence numbers will be slightly misleading. (Search the archives for "iterated logarithm" if you want further technical details.)

I don't think it's a big deal either way, though.
