I don't really get why some people always go "THIS CAN'T BE RANDOM" when something really unexpected happens.

Isn't it really exactly the opposite? Isn't random supposed to be unpredictable? Like, if the dice would always give similar results, like if you could always count on a certain result when attacking, like a 10v4 would always leave you with 6 troops, then I'd understand if people would say "this isn't random". But this, it's just bad luck, due to... randomness. So what gives?

Yeah, well I should be up 4 -0 against highlander and he knows it..but wait my dice are pathetic and he managed to square it 2 - 2..what you say Highlander..should have had the sweep. Maybe you should bitch about who goes first..just kidding Highlander it's all fun and games.

Well, there's your problem: You didn't know that CC uses a different number generator to give players who use Firefox weaker dice rolls?

This would be true if games and dice like were unpredictable, however, getting balanced dice are what has become unpredictable. From what I've been seeing and come to expect, the dice have become completely biased and games are being decided solely by dice at an ever increasing rate. I would have to argue that this goes against random and the dice have become anything but. It's not very random when one side has great dice and the other doesn't. If anything, that is consistency.

I'm under the understanding that if the majority of players have seen a difference since the dice change over and are not happy about it, then maybe something should be done to render the situation of sticking their heads in the sand. It is possible that things aren't justifiable, no matter how random they may appear to be. Just the overwhelming amount of people who refuse to renew or have even left should say something.
