RE: First script testing
Matty needs to learn how to do better randomness....

code:
return rn_txt[Math.round((rn_txt.length-1)*Math.random())];

Should be:

code:
return rn_txt[Math.floor((rn_txt.length)*Math.random())];

Otherwise the first and last variable only have half the probability of being chosen as any other (assuming Math.random is truely random).
