Artificial random is the best random we can get. If I play Juniper and draw 7 energy, I'd wish I used and Electrode Prime. Computers use different methods of random and so do humans. Computers look for patterns and mix them up several times. A computer can shuffle thousands of times in 1 go. Humans can only shuffle the best way we know how. Like it was said, we are programed to recognize patterns. If I play a draw card and pick up 3 rare candies, It could suck or it could be very useful, it all depends on the game state. I could Roast Reveal into 3 Pokemon or other cards I don't need.
It's Random, or it's not. It does not matter who or what makes it so. There is no such thing as "artificially random".
It all depends on game state but when I get the chance to search. While searching, I notice a bulk of cards together and just move them around the deck and continue my search, taking no extra time. The deck is shuffled by both players and a judge if it's needed.
Thinking. Part of the Game.
Cards. Part of the Game.
Organizing your Deck in the middle of a game. NOT Part of the Game.
Anything you do that is not part of the game is extra, and if you're doing those extra things, you are taking time away from the things that are part of the game.
When a card tells you to "Search for a Pokemon" and you search and search and search- you've done nothing wrong. You've done exactly what the card is telling you to do. When that same card, afterwards, tells you to shuffle the deck, and you shuffle the deck 5 times , then you've done what the card is telling you to do. Anything a card tells you to do is part of the game.
Rules. They too are a part of the game. And the rules ask that you do not excessively do actions or stall time. So if you are facing me in a match and you deliberatley move one counter at a time for the purpose of either a) Proving a point or b) taking your time; I will call over a judge.
At no point, on any card or in any rule, does it say "Organize your deck, and then shuffle it". Therefore it is not part of the game. It is extra. It is taking time away from the actual game. Therfore, it is wasting time. And yes, 1/100th of a second is still a fraction of time.
