I'm in the final stages of testing my own script (currently using Puzzle #28 as my test case)... It searches randomly, and I've noticed that sometimes it finds the solution pretty quickly and other times it takes longer...

Of course this is expected (and KeyHunt acts the same way on random mode), but I'm wondering what y'all think about the idea of me making it so that my RNG re-seeds itself every once in awhile, like once a month or something*...?

Basically, I'm just going for as much luck as I can get (I have no GPU), and I can't think of a downside to re-seeding at regular intervals*, in the (somewhat vain) hope that some seeds may start my search closer to the solution, and some further away (so to speak), but I thought I'd get the collective's input... What do you think: dumb idea, or what?

* a month, or more possibly, because of course now the puzzle ranges are much larger, so I'm not sure how long to give it before re-seeding...

* especially if I keep track of the seeds I've already used, and don't re-use any...
