rules question: turn resolution

[JonBrave]

Excuse me for saying the bleedin' obvious, then, but if Mr (or Ms) Pyrrhic could find just one caster with a lower ID than the opponent he could be sure to "surround" him?

As for "It's essentially random.", randomness is a bit of a hobby of mine, here the overall order is not at all random, though I suppose it is for the purpose of which direction it goes Assuming that thejeff is correct (and I would not doubt it!), if that is the definition of the manual's "in a random order", I wouldn't go basing an encryption algorithm on it

No can do. The target in question is a bunch of Benim with ID 106. As I said in the OP, lower than any of my casters.

I think the fine point here is the difference between in random order and in a random order. And what do you have against 1-bit encryption?
