random numbers may not seem that random to us, but they are
humans seem to have a feel for when random numbers seem too unlikely and we tend to blame the RNG. (dice/computor/whatever)
However, according to physics, if we play blood bowl for and infinately long time, there will be games where all players die, you will play several games in a row where all players die. Or games where all block dice are skulls, it's just a matter of time.
Conclusion is, don't blame the RNG, just sacrifice a snotling to Nuffle and get on the next game.
also, welcome to fumbbl! |

Per Didyouknow, in each match about 0,5 players die. So from each team, about 0,25 players per match die. For 24 matches, the mean amount of death would be 6. I do not think 10 would sound very strange then. |

Yeah I'm sick of half of one of my players dying, the other half tries to soldier on but the dead half just ways him down. |

Thank for the support guys.
I knew that it was a tactical game but didn't realise the extent and work that was needed!! |

If the probability of a death is 0.25 per game then the probability of 10 deaths in 24 games, via the binomial theory, is about 3.3%
You might be cursed, but it's too early to say so definitively.
If you can get up to 20 deaths in 30 games we can revisit. |

Princess Bride is a book first, tho the movie is great too.
Anyhoo Neal, dont believe a word they say. You are cursed, doomed and not paranoid at all. They are wrong. You know you arent. You´ve been lured here by some alien intelligence whose only goal is to kill as many of your beloved pixels as possible. You know i´m right. |
