Damn good. Does it matter that you're (presumably) using a psuedo random number? I mean you seem to nail the probabilities regardless.

Perhaps our pseudorandom algorithms are better at flipping a coin (this case) versus having to choose a random value over a range greater than 2 (or "1" if you like).
