Myself, I can see that since the last time my Dice Analyzer was reset (due to clearing cookies or some such), I've only won 33,6% of my 3v2's, instead of the expected 37,17%. I've also got worse than expected stats in 3v1, 2v2 (not a whole lot of those), 1v1 (or those) and 1v2 (those too). On the plus side, I've won more 2v1's than expected. Yay.

I can also see that my least thrown dice are 4 and 6, and the defenders least thrown dice are 1 and 2.

Incidentally, I've dropped over 200 points in that period, and keep falling.

FML.
Me too down 800

Incidentally are you excited for Towers of Midnight?
Ridiculously excited! :twisted:

Most people talk about how the good dice and bad dice even out eventually, but they usually fail to mention how WHEN the dice are good/bad is really the most important thing.

For example, I've noticed that in a lot of games I have terrible luck at the beginning (i.e. I can't kill a single troop over the course of 4 rounds), but it gets better at the end. Of course, by the end of the game luck is very often much less of a factor because there are way more factors in play. Sure, sometimes I can take a stack of 6 through a stack of 18, but that only seems to happen when I'm either vastly outnumbered (i.e. those are my last 6 troops, and my opponent still has another 120 sitting around), or vice versa (the opponent has the 6 troops, I have the 120, and my "good luck" only helps end the game one round earlier).

I agree that there is really nothing more frustrating than shitty dice when you really need them to be at least mediocre...like in the beginning of the game.

I'm not sure what the point of this post was, really.

That is the thing that gets me, I dont mind losing... cant win them all. But the timing thing gets me. I want soooo bad to win clan war games and thats when my dice is the worse. Not only is it a loss but its effect on the clan war is what burns my biscuits. That and when I'm starting a run in a 6 man escalating, when I start the run to win... take out the first guy, midturn and get down to the last territ and crap out to set someone else for a win. waaaahhh!!! Ok Im good now, had to let that out. The dice is fine.

1. the dice are random, not fair. As you increase the sample size, they will get closer and closer to an even distribution, which is what you mean by "fair"
2. maybe you had unfairly good dice with the old dice :P

They're not so bad. I'm several rounds into a game and have actually managed to conquer a tert.

Good thing my opponents don't have that issue.

Let's think this through for a moment...you claim that the dice are bad. This is based on the fact that you in particular have been unlucky with them, presumably on offense. However, if the dice were actually bad, then EVERYONE would have bad dice when on offense. Unfortunately for you, this doesn't mean the dice are bad, it just means you were unlucky. Suck it up, cupcake.

Him "in particular"....and ALOT of other people claim the dice are bad.
I know what it is...they all got together and started a conspiracy to complain about the dice.Yeah,thats what it is...it couldnt possibly be a bunch of independent players giving their honest opinion on on the lopsided results that the dice come up with in this game.
The dice in the game do not even come close to resembling what real dice would roll.I play quite a few games with dice(not computer dice),risk,backgammon,yahtzee,and I can tell you that CC dice do not simulate what random real dice would roll in any way shape or form.
You get long strings of losing rolls in this game,longer than any real dice would give you,sometimes lasting for the WHOLE game.
