How would this work with a step that isn't divisible into the range for the field? Given minutes 0~59/25 with a random offset of 0 there will be an event at 0, 25, and 50 minutes past the hour. On the next hour does it start at 0, 15, or a new random offset? i.e. constant offset, constant step, or regenerated offset.

I read it as the 25 is just a simple step. So the first hour in your example would run at 0, 25, and 50. The next hour would run at 15 and 40, etc.
