@idekanymore Independent. This is because the odds of the second drawing are not related and dependent on the first drawing. There is no qualification that says a different name then the first one. That would be an AND statement if we said it; pick a name, replace it in the box, AND draw a different name. The way it is written I think we could say, pick a name, replace it in the box, draw the same name as the first OR a new name.

@PRAETORIAN.10 Yes, my stupid autocorrect and pellet in place of protein. I didn't notice that one and it was very confusing, I admit. I wish there was a better way for visual things here. Some of these things work so much better with nice, visual aides.
