Different passwords every time. In fact, I don't know the input
passwords being cracked on the current run, as I gave polly a flag to
spit them out MD5-encoded. I see .../run/john.pot. I was unaware of
its existence. Given the size of my source dictionary and the
modifications my tool makes to the plain old XKCD936 algorithm, I
think it highly unlikely that it would generate the same password on
multiple runs. I don't think for my purposes the session feature will
help much.
