Like the OP you don't understand randomness. Unfortunately on the internet people seem to think their lack of knowledge and understanding is a qualification to speak.

Doing five 12 (or more) in 83 rolls is 8.2%
Doing four 7 (or less) in 83 rolls is 0.10%.

To remove biais, when someone do that kind of claim, I only focus on the number the most or the lowest rolled. But since there is 22 ways to compare them, I can 'multiply' that 0.10% by 22: 1-(1-0.0010)^22) which now gives 2.23%.

You did 544 games, that or something less likely should have happen more than 12 times to you in average for only your Space base games.

So, you doubt the randomness because the result does not meet your expectations?

That is paradoxical
