I agree jackal .... I have found that for some strange reason when your dice are in one of those long losing streaks, my opponents dice (generally) are beating odds you wouldn't expect CONSISTENTLY not just a little bit.

today I lost a 21v4 (game on the line in AR) and then subsequently lost on the next turn. Okay that happens ... next game my opponent takes 28v6v35 + and still has 10 left - game over.

This by itself isn't a great big deal ... because its random and it happens BUT ... and here's the part where I decide I've had enough of all this because I'm done with the bullshit .... THIS HAPPENS WAAAY TOO OFTEN.

And it generally, on average, happens most CONSISTENTLY when I am having bad dice streaks so ... it is my belief (and I'm not alone) that there is a glitch somewhere in the system. I've watched for over 2 years now as this happens CONSISTENTLY. I have no problem with random dice - its a cloak that some here like to use to encompass every single complaint ... but I'm not buying it. Random is random ... but when you start seeing patterns like the one I describe briefly above, there's a problem.

Some people are going to say its just a matter of perspective or that its human nature to notice solely the bad streaks. I used to be a whiner .. blah blah blah ... whatever you want to call it. So I changed my attitude and gave it a chance. For the most part I accepted what happened ... some good dice ... some bad dice (some of my biggest detractors became my p's in some team games) and even with them I had some brutal dice .. but I understood that this happens - its random. And I'm not even saying now that it ISN'T random. What I am saying is that I began to gain perspective - objective as it could be .....

and noticed and began to really watch more closely .... when I had accepted bad streaks of dice (random) generally speaking my opponents were beating the dice odds on multiple instances CONSISTENTLY. And tonight was just another prime example of that.

Yup.

This is gospel. If my dice hit one of those shit streaks, I play whatever turns I must with great caution, and then shut 'er down for the day.

I've had 1v1 speed streaks that were so awesome they were embarrassing.
Two days later, I have to lick the devils ass to roll a six.

Nothing you can ever do about it, just work around it like any other variable.

Oh, and be prepared to take an impressive amount of shit when you start a thread like this.
The formula ladder climbers with their monotonous or questionable point generating games will be quick to slag your skills.

ive been saying this for two years

the same pattern always happens to me as well

ive been in a stretch the past 3-4 weeks where the majority of games - my team as a whole gets horrible dice and the opposing team gets great dice.

im sure some of it is a glitch in the system and im sure there are some players using dice hacks. from what i understand its pretty easy to create. i notice the same players/teams always getting the dice breaks, never fails

someone wants to say thats whining i really could care less.

[donkeymile]

ANOTHER example ..... never ceases to amaze me here ...

7v9 win with 5 left .... then 9v12v3v3v1v1 to win the game - whaaaaat?

oh did I mention that I'm in a bad dice streak again? oh and my opponent had amazing odd defying dice AGAAIN ... nooooo thats just a c o i n c i d e n c e right .....

taken by itself what happened isn't troublesome - it happens ..... but when it happens CONSISTENTLY and especially when I am having struggling dice .... please, spare me the random bullshit talk ..... I'm talking about my opponents great dice while I struggle ... not the fact that I'm in a bad dice streak

[donkeymile]

What - not another example .... no it can't be

another game and another opponent questioning how his dice are so good against me ... lol

did I mention I am having a bad dice streak? Oh yeah and my opponent having odd defying dice? No ... that just doesn't happen - I mean its all random right? LOL ..... 7v7v3v3 and 4 left AND a 3v3 to boot. And that after he already had some other insane dice in the 3 round game.

Anyway ... gotta laugh to keep from crying now .... I can see the details clearly now - and there IS an issue with the system.

[donkeymile]

By the way - just for the record I DID have an amazing game today - a 22/23 round Lux nuke all out brawl that is the only reason I consider coming back to play .... that 1 in 10 game that is worth playing. Even if I lost that one I wouldn't have been upset about it.

And then, minutes ago a game finishes with an opponent talking about how good his dice were against me ... lol

surprise -surprise

[natty dread]

Donkeymile, it seems you have suffered from a relapse. We have to arrange some emergency counceling ASAP.

[donkeymile]

No this time I am sane!!!! lol ..... I'm not complaining about MY dice this time .. I accept that bad dice streaks are random and all that ... its the CONSISTENT nature of my opponents dice while I am in bad dice streaks that I am talking about.

It's not coincidence that in most cases when I am having bad dice streak my opponents are having not just good dice, but odd defying amazing dice. I know the difference ....
