This is by design so that games are predictable between users.
You can use the --seedstart option to pass in a different seed number which will generate different random values; every time you use a different seed number you will get different games.
It may seem confusing but the idea was that YOUR games #1-10 would be the same as MY games #1-10, for easy comparison and playing together.
So the way I do it is I don't change the see, but I just make a pdf with like 500 games, and then just print a few of those at a time. I thought I had an option where you could tell the program what game # to start printing at, but it seems I was wrong; I should probably add that feature.
You'll find commandline options in the readme.txt in the documentation folder:
