Because of the math used for randomization in the Dice Roller, you will note that the second die often repeats itself. To disrupt this tendency, you can simply roll the second die between rolling both dice. This will sufficiently randomize the rolls.

Example:
Double Roll: 16
Single Roll: 7
Double Roll: 99
Single Roll: 8
Double Roll: 35
