I would think that too, but whenever I run the text, I actually get the phrase “etc” the most.
I find that weird…not sure why it works, it works in Javascript too, that is how I knew to use it :-\

I don’t see why it should :-\ Theoretically, Flash picks random number. So if you have 5 elements, there are equal odds that the number will be < .2 and > 0 (you get 0 ), 0.2 < number < 0.4 (–> 1), 0.4 < number < 0.6 (–> 2), 0.6 < number < 0.8 (–> 3), 0.8 < number < 1 (–> 4).
I’m not sure that this is very clear… :-\
i figured it out after playing with it more, I’ve also be up for about 27 hours so I am/was a little out of it.
Wow, was posting that stuff at like 5:30am. :-\
