This could have gone in any of the many active dice topics, so that's where it's going.

Merged.

I also lost a 21 v 6 in the same game which is only a 99.8% favorite but combine the two and that should basically never happen in a game. Now I've never had an issue with the dice, but has there been any research gone into possible "streakyness" of the dice?

As far as I know, I still hold the CC record: I lost 87 to 0 during a single auto-attack against 3 armies.

dice streakiness has been proven to not exist??????????

what a load of bullshit ... as I am now on another long dice losing streak .... the dice ARE streaky and consistently so ... sometimes bad - sometimes good.

what is suspiciously funny is I have NEVER been in a game yet where my opponent is having the same good or bad streak that I am ..... yet they all (in chat) relay there experiences with streaky dice streaks.

the dice are streaky .... and I can see why long standing members of the site are walking away from the bullshit .... and especially since the 'new dice' system has come into place.

I am on the verge myself ..... giving up 30/40/50 points at a time to opponents who at times used the worst strategy and got bailed out on dice is enough to say enough is enough.
It's the streaks that bother me ... and they DO EXIST ....
