Smooshing aka wash , corgi, chemmy - 30 sec on a edge, 1 min is enough

Machines are going to be replaced with one that have different shuffling scheme with random number generator. Those machines you numbers that are have initial seed, and each number they add new one, there is cheats who  watch rolled out numbers on casino machine, and figure our right moment to
