We even have that new 'My Dice Stats' thing to remind us how unfriendly the dice are if you haven't sacrificed enough virgins to the god's ](*,)

Answer wrote:The dice on this site are randomized by Random.org and then scripted by CC and with you being an active paying member of Conquer Club you experience a very large number of manipulated dice rolls and if you are one of our non appreciated members/clans you will experience an unbelievable number of horrid drops and you will only occasionally get to move 1st and our version of random will often hand your ass to you and your hard earned points will often be gifted to your opponents for their game enjoyment. You will however occasionally experience some fun random in non important games to keep you interested but if it is a tournament or clan war game you should expect very poor random in 80% of those games.
Fixed.

I admit ... I am here to vent.
I don't care what the dice statistics state ... longterm. The dice run in "extremes" more than they ever would randomly.
They run extremely FOR YOU or AGAINST YOU a high percentage of the time.
I have noticed this for the full 2 + years I played here.
So "Random" really isn't random. There have to be some elements of the "programming" that cause these extreme streaks for you or against you.

Anyone else feel the same way?

Yep. I go on winning streaks and get scores in the 2400, then losing streaks where my score dips as low as 1200. I figure my proper rank is around 2100.

Jefjef, be careful not to drink that tap water, they put drugs in it to make you stupider.
