Re: Implausibly bad luck

To update this, my long, long run of extraordinarily bad luck did finally end. Since then I have had some undoubtedly very good luck, and returned to the top 10 in the league.

It seemed to me to be absurdly improbable, although of course a long run of bad luck will almost certainly occur if one plays enough games. Unfortunately there is no practical way of determining just how unlikely my run of bad luck was. So I just have to leave it as anecdata.

To keep logs of weird events. It has been about 10 games in a row for me when Even Bigger shows up on the second row of cards :>>

It's even more than that, it's the first card of the deck.
I reported the bug here: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=54917 .

That one is really a bug and not bad luck. I fixed it, sorry for that!

All I know is that BGAs random number generation SUCKS!!
I really wish they would fix it. It’s TERRIBLE!! Real games don’t play ANYTHING like they do on here.

You make it sound like it's totally random.
