Not Random

Post by Spudster »

The dice roll is affected by the current dice numbers you already have. Not to mention that BGA changes the dice algorithm regularly without announcement. Been playing Yahtzee for years and nothing is random.

Sad that BGA changes the dice algorithm after each of your games.

If you are that good in probabilities to see that something is wrong, just exploit it. You know what's the current algorithm is, so you can adapt to it.


"Of course", it's not real, the algorithm doesn't change, and is enough good to not be perceptible per humans, despite what they claim.

Do either of you have any real evidence or statistics to support your claims?

I've had sequences of very good rolls and very bad rolls but nothing out of the long term averages.

We need facts not feelings, statistics not suppositions please.

I do that all the time on the forum (backgammon is the most popular), but I should do something very clean one day myself.
