Make dice rolls fair for all players so that games are skill based. Shill if you want to for this site but the people who experience these problems know what is up.

You want a game of pure skill?
Don’t play a game involving dice.

That's all they seem to play lol. Except for that one game of Terra Mystica that they abandoned. Thought it was amusing.

Well of course. If you play a game without random elements you can't blame the program/ randomness for your losing. If there's dice you can blame the RNG for favoring your opponent and be secure in your knowledge that you are the best person ever at this game despite losing. It's a feature.

To answer the original question: There are over 9 million players on BGA. One of them will have the worst luck, and that luck is really bad, worse than 1 in a million bad luck.

Which Placebo's song are you humming while doing it? Every You Every Me works far better than The Bitter End for instance.
