Gopher speech randomization?

My gophers seem to say the same few phrases over and over again... "If balls were meant to fly, they'd have wings!", "Go pound some sand, hacker", "Don't hit me, hit X", "Don't worry, gravity is your friend", etc.

I could swear the real table had more phrases. :confused:

Do you play consecutive games or do you quit in the middle and/or exit to menu? Doing either of the last two actions resets the ROM to a known state, which also resets the RNG seed value in the ROM. This could cause the same phrases to repeat.

Also, some of the other phrases require you to be deeper in the game. For example, "say goodbye to your balls!" doesn't happen until the third multiball start in a single game.

I try to play consecutive games, but a lot of times it just sits there instead of starting the next game. That kindof makes sense though, it just gets repetitive hearing the same stuff over and over again.

Thanks

edit: in comparison, here is Gofers on PHoF-Williams:

Interesting, some quotes I've never heard on iOS/Android before and I play this table alot. Also the transparent ramps look BRILLIANT!

Anyone else think Bud's "choke" at the start of the Hole In One Challenge sounds like "OWW COCAINE"? I wonder if Williams ever got any negative feedback from that...

After the latest PS3 update, Buzz doesn't call me Clubfoot anymore (first one is always Hacker). I'd gladly play this table several times in a row to get the speech commands to randomize more, but the game doesn't restart properly and I have to back out while the ROM resets.

And I agree with TMOverbeck; No Chokinnnggg does indeed sound like Oww Cocaaaine.

I have noticed this too. It sometimes can get annoying when Buzz and Bud keep saying the same things. It could be because of certain order of doing the modes or its a on a randomizer. I'm only guessing so don't quote me on it.
