Since the current implementation of the PRNG - is rather complex (and hard to get right in ports), - has some visual collisions (see docs in this commit) here is a different PRNG proposal.
If a different PRNG is to be used, it should be easy to spot that the visual checksum follows a different spec, in order to avoid confusion. Therefore, v2 or "pyramies" are displayed in a 10 block high pyramid shape, which is slightly less space efficient and looses 2 bits against the original scheme (30 vs. 32 individual blocks).
