While it a humorous expose'.! It had me going... clearly as I was being affirmed in what I thought was already in play here on BGA.

Truthfully, however, I sometimes do not care for the AI that governs the die rolls. Don't get me wrong here, I am a staunch supporter of BGA and am glad I found the gaming site. IRL when I play physical board games there is an intangible effect that is inexplicable. Its that feeling that you can get the die rolls you need, a larger % of the time. It is uncanny, the notion that a person is luckier than another, but from my personal life, it has proven to be more true than not. Winning things like Bingo, raffles and even church cake walks. Some people are lucky, while others might say that they are unlucky irl. However when I specifically play Castles of Burgundy on BGA. It seems more commonplace, that something at the other happens too regularly to avoid my personal suspicion. Fairly often in CoB, when the only two die rolls that would not work in my particular situation(like a 1 and 4 or a 3 and 6), they are exactly what the generator tosses out...too often for me to avoid. I have even predicted on more than one occasion what AI would generate on the pips....

Game on!
Love BGA

Seems a bit complicated. Why not just enable the purchase of "good luck charms". The more charms you have, the better luck you get.

I would never give them up,
As long as they never let me down

Getting my defence in quick, I read this early evening - so way after midday - but it did take me until the beginning of the second paragraph to realise what it was :-)
