Sorry for the delay in replying, things have been kind of hectic for me here. Normally when I need to do this I will create a timer and start the timer before I generate the first number. Then as part of my seed I will include the current value of the timer combined with the current date/time with a 5ms delay between number generation. That always provides me with a unique seed.

before it was alot of lows and now enough mids or highs.
