To avoid confusion, I used the expression "last digits".

  It actually doesn't matter how many options are in your random number generator. You only get a normal distribution if the number of children you have divides the number of options in your generator. Even if you're using the seconds of a clock, it doesn't work for 7 children.

    > It actually doesn't matter how many options are in your random number generator. It certainly does -- the larger the random number, the fairer the outcome is. > Even if you're using the seconds of a clock, it doesn't work for 7 children. For a digits range of 0 - 59? Plus the fallback in the face of a precocious child of adding the number of minutes * 60?
