This *could* happen if the server has multiple CPUs, and the scripts are being run in parallel on different CPUs. My advice about combining the scripts into one script would fix that, however.

I have no idea how that could happen, but you could check that by setting a useless variable to a different value in the 2 scripts, wait for another bomb, and check the value. If it is the case, you would avoid the bug by defining all the variables in one script (but please tell us so we can chase the bug).
