I'm talking about that you get the ball, score and retrieve the ball on the Undead's offense and score again.
And in this particular game your dices weren't bad. One meaningless double skull and one double skull rerolled into a pushback at half 2. I stopped watching the rest of the game since you switched to team destruction mode thereby.

MAN THE PROBLEM IS THAT I'M TAKING 4-5 TRIPLE SKULLS IN EVERY MATCH ...


I'm calling BS on this one. Link one match where this happened please, just one... or I guess I could click any of your games since it happens every time.

Another one? The dice on fumbbl are more accurate than rollin a real life dice.

Sometimes it feels like the dice hate ya, but that's because humans a hard wired that way (generally). You won't remember the countless dice, some very improbable, that succeed.

well, I watched your last match and didn't even see any 3 die blocks thrown so clearly you're exaggerating the "4-5 TRIPLE SKULLS EVERY MATCH" and I'm not about to search through your matches for them. If you did get 4 or 5 triple skulls in a match, enter it into the Recoropedia Spluttanica, it would definitely be noteworthy! Smile In my experience, the RNG is fine and I roll just as many double and triple skulls as my opponents do.

What I did see was that you could work a lot on your positioning- it's important if you want to win by any means other than just removing all opposition from the pitch. In fact, good positioning can help remove more opposition. Check out some of these links for more info.

Never said i'm a pro player, if u've seen my last game, you know that i've made two huge mistakes and that i understood them on the pitch. Obviously i'm exagerating, but things that happened were like 3 skulls, then 2 double skulls reroll double skulls, and that was the top level, even if it happens really often. Last match the dice were normal, i've said it too. but if you want we can see the last 10 matches =)

The point is that, never seen a triple star result, but 've seen so many times a triple skull.
I can understand that u remember more the negative things instead of the positive, is just that it seems strange to me.

Then, that i have to improve my game tactics, is clear. it's why i play here =D

Think of this scenario as an analogy. Grab a handful of pebbles and throw them onto the ground, there will always be clusters of pebbles together.. never will you throw a handful of pebbles and have them land evenly spaced from each other in a tidy order.

This is the nature of randomness. It's the same on fumbbl, never will you get evenly distributed results. Sometimes you'll get good luck and sometimes you'll get bad luck. Some people will get more good luck and others will get more bad luck.

The only prize there is to win on fumbbl is fun, once you master this aspect then the dice results don't even matter anyway Smile

I have, but you don't notice them so much, coz all you need is one star.

It's clear you were exaggerating, but if the dice were that bad you wouldn't need to.

Stick with it, you'll see some crazy dice that'll make you wonder what you were even complaining about this week Wink

The random number generator works well. Yes you will get some unlucky runs and lucky runs. There is no specific sequences. You may not notice it but it can feel like you are less lucky when you are not playing well. What I mean is by taking more risks and rolls, and then you notice the failures. Of course 3db skulls are unlucky though.

Also have you noticed on the match report page under replay it shows a dice symbol? Click on that for dice stats. For example you won a game 1-0 recently against Nurgle where your opponent failed 4 2dbs. On the other hand he also did -2dbs and 1dbs which are risky. It does seem the dice stats aren't working for all games right now though.

Still, these RNG questions pop up that often, it might help to write some formal story on how it works on the help page or the GLN... a few things I've learned over the threads:

- there is 1 RNG for all games, it spits out the numbers for all matches being played in order of rolling the dice. So even if it would be rigged it would still be fair because everyone would get screwed the same way. Everyone would get the same triple skulls etc.

- it is far more random than normal dice. Normal dice roll too much 1s because the 6-side is the heaviest and often ends up on the bottom. Casino dices have presicely machined edges and are changed several times per day to keep them random.

Already there under the Help/Advanced Site Use Very Happy

I still think having a nice relaxing dice-rattle sound would reduce the number of questions about the RNG.

The greatest Human Lineman of all time took a niggle on a triple-skull against a Snotling. Well, actually, he went down and the Snot fouled him for the niggle. But the point is, it happens.

This kind of scaremongering is totally irresponsible. For a whole season my tabletop league was plagued by enormous, ebay-bought casino dice smashing models and denting custom boards. They might roll 'fewer ones' but at what cost?!!
