Low dice rolls

Post by DaddyBork »

Anyone else having issues with the dice struggling to roll over 6 this last week? In this tournament I was in I lost so many games because of soooooo many low rolls.

If you know they were going to be low, why don't buy low value ships and win?

It's random. Well, pseudorandom, but that amounts to the same thing.

Which means yes, some people are having games with a lot of low dice rolls. And some people aren't. Because it's random, you can never know in advance what will happen in a specific game, but you can know pretty confidently that there will be _some_ games where there are a lot of low rolls, and there will be some games where there are a lot of high rolls, and also games where it's more balanced. You also can't know what one specific player will encounter, but you can be pretty confident that _some_ players will get a few games in a row where the dice roll low more than high (and also some players will get a few games in a row where the opposite happens).

And the probability is close to 100% that some of those will come to the forum and complain :D
