Hi, author here:

Yep, this is the sort of thing we study in our cooperative and adaptive algorithms class. Similar techniques to what you suggest are shown here https://books.google.ca/books?id=G5ML5EYch94C&pg=PA88&lpg=PA...

Looks neat but I gave up on it converging on my new laptop. I'm going to port it to rebol2. This bit confuses me:

  random.choice(range(0, i) + range(i+1, 4))
how is that different from

  random.choice(range(0, 4))? 
Obviously no Pythonista, but playing around in the REPL I see no diff.
Duh. Where is the button that reverses the passage of time?
