Well, of course I don't follow completely. I'm a programming idiot. Given your assumption is correct, and I have no reason to doubt it, then the secondary assumption would have to be that the program - while not containing duplicates - is assigning duplicates or pics already used. Not knowing exactly how it works, that can be my only guess. Before you conclude it's a function of league size, mine - right now - is only 7700.
Back to the other part of my inquiry. I don't see any reason why I could not go to the many various 'other' yearly folders (even though some of the players might be repeated in the following years - don't know how to avoid that without a very time-consuming selection) and dump those into the Random Folder. After it became extremely disproportionate to the eventual league size AND I'd added all of the various folder's contents I'd selected, renumbering the entire contents via Ifranview, then selecting the option to Use Fake Faces should generate a random selection of ALL of the AUAutoFace photo collection (or at least my selection from it).
Does that make sense and do you see any real pitfalls with that method?
