balance dice rolls

I am a subscriber and my dice rolls are TERRIBLE!!! so if there is such a thing then I somehow missed the que.

For context here is my last Catan Game where my key numbers are 8 and 5:

So please keep your conspiracy guesses out of a quality board gaming site.

There are 36 combinations for 2 dice. If you want to see a good even distribution 90% of the time, you'd have to roll maybe 360 times. One game lasts about 70 rolls. So you're probably going to see weird distributions maybe 50% of the time or more. This is how the game is and you should not think of Catan like a heavily skill-involved game.

Using dice card (an official feature) could stop 99% complaint of unfair dice in this game. I think they can offer this option.

i agree, and this would answer for this game but this is an ongoing issue for dice games on this site. i still think they would do best by making a big deal out of putting in a different random dice roller and make all the trolls happy that way...or as happy as trolls get...

yes I'd like to see the "deck" representation option for dice rolls to be an option. It's an official thing they do in 100 player Catan. I believe it's a deck of cards with each number probability represented twice but there's also a reshuffle card in the deck. Flattens out the wild probability games while still making it not totally certain.
