How does the random option work, exactly? I'm looking for something truly random within a set time period of believable "we're awake" time.

I don't know, i returned mine because i couldn't figure the dam thing out...went and bought a wemo plug, much easier to use with the iPhone.

not really. Every time you turn the frame on, the random setting follows the same order which is different from the normal order but it always stays the same.

Its unpredictability is its main debit. I (accidentally) bought a second one, and when the first one crapped out, and I went to the second one, it worked... and is working... fine. Difference may be that I haven't tried to make numerous changes after the initial programming. I still can't recommend it without doubts.

We played with three people on New Years Eve and we had a "ghost" player. When we threw down our responses, we also picked the next card off the pile and placed it with the other answers. Turns out...our "ghost" player won! :)

exactly! you have to take the current time and do the math to know how long it is until 7am. so setting it each day will require either going to bed at the exact same time or figuring out the math again.

One time deal...this brand of game (I've played MANY in the series) has a predetermined murderer. That person will know it's them at the beginning of the game, which makes the game a little less fun for that person - unless they are a great actor, in which they will really play everything else up and red herring answers and such. It's fun no matter what!

Ok, the map comes all in gold color. You take a coin (ou a key, or something like that) and scratch the country that you visited, and it turns to another color. Kind of like those lottery things, you know? (Sorry, english is not my first language, I tried to explain the best I could)

Oh yes my friend according to the user manual there is an option to play random in the current folder and also to play that way in all files.

It is truly random, at least for all practical purposes it is. To a human it looks random, a mathematician might spot a flaw in the algorithm but it won't matter for someone viewing in random mode. It does always start with the same photo and after that they are random. I have just under 200 photos on the USB memory stick all in the top level directory (not in folders) and I have it set to play a random side show. On power up it always shows the same photo and then after that they are random. This would be a bug if the photos were displayed for an hour (the longest setting) but with any of the shorter times it is not a problem. After displaying this same photo the next one and all after will be random.

Yes it does. I don't think you can pick a specific amount of time but there are varying timers to choose from.

Yes. You get to select what the current time is and also how long you want it to go for.

Thank you so much for the information about setting the date and time. I, up to this point, had not been able to find an answer to that question. Very much appreciated.

What is easy for some is not for others. I make a list of the order they are in. By listening to the first one and then clicking the correct number of times I get the one that I want. Normally, it will start with the last one played. So far I have had good results with this.

You have to search for the correct color in the beginning. For some reason they do not let you just pick a color when you select a randome one.

It is all random stuff. Just like the main game. They are just as funny too.

its random. they choose and you wont know the color till it arrives. save your money and buy a four piece one instead. i threw mine away and ordered a new five piece one and i love it. it was even under $15.

Let me know if i understand this rights (based on other answers as well) So if it's set to Random, when it turns on it always displays the first image and then proceeds randomly? If that's the case then this isn't a big deal.
