      You don’t have to have two, I just didn’t really want to
      edit the shuffle script, here it is a single script:

      @ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
SET TmpFile=tmp%RANDOM%%RANDOM%.tmp
TYPE NUL >%Tmpfile%
set cnt=0
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%i IN ('MORE') DO SET Key=!RANDOM!!RANDOM!!RANDOM!000000000000& ECHO !Key:~0,15!%%i>> %TmpFile%
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%i IN ('TYPE %TmpFile% ^| SORT') DO (
    set /a cnt+=1
    SET Line=%%i
    echo !Line:~15! is the #!cnt! winner.
)
DEL %TmpFile%
ENDLOCAL
pause
