The RFC for the 2011 Arbcom elections requested that, if possible, the order of the voter guides in this template be randomized each time the template is refreshed. The 2012 RFC resulted in no change in that regard. As a stop gap measure, the template is currently set up to use a combination of the number of edits to the project, and the current time to generate a pseudo random matrix of guides. The randomization is not perfect; depending on the number of guides listed, it will be possible to see patterns in the order, however each guide should still have an equal chance to appear in each position. If you want to check the cycling, make sure to purge your view, as the server may not regenerate the template on every view.
