I have asked about the disadvantage of hyperplanes for the linear congruent random number generator, and the post has received 4 votes as off-topic, one away from being closed. So I wonder if the closed votes are unreasonable?

Well, basically pseudorandom generators are a topic for either discrete mathematics (theoretical part) or something I used to call "computational science" (practical part) -- there is a SE for both (Math.SE and SciComp.SE).

Your question seems to be more theoretical, so it might get a better attention on Math.SE; in fact this is what close-voters think.
