The logs do store the seeds. The code for generating random positions seems to be messed up due to a change made in PHP 5.2.1. (This site is currently using PHP 5.2.9.) The PHP manual says, 'The Mersenne Twister implementation in PHP now uses a new seeding algorithm by Richard Wagner. Identical seeds no longer produce the same sequence of values they did in previous versions. This behavior is not expected to change again, but it is considered unsafe to rely upon it nonetheless.'
