This is also not technically true. Powers are chosen by an algorithm wherein you are less likely to get a country you have played more often than other countries.
Also, randomness is found in other ways, depending on how you look at it. One frequently must guess whether another power will defend supply center A or supply center B, and you have a 50% chance at bouncing or a 50% chance at taking the center.
:) So either I found a lie by contradiction, or I found a lie by apparent contradiction one of whose conjuncts is the lie, is that what you're saying?
Well yes. My point wasn't really about the truth value of what you said though, but just trying to be informative about the algorithm by which WebDiplomacy sorts countries/the game itself.
