Someone bought me a ‘dunce hat and chair’ for dice once, but I immediately handed it to one of my players who has terrible dice luck.

We tend to remember the bad rolls and not the good ones. Dice do what dice do. You win some. You lose some.

If you had good luck all the time it would be boring. The most interesting stories involve failure.

Take the Death Star jail break. If Han had succeeded in the bluff over comms the scene would have ended with them going back to ship. No shoot out in the detention block. No trash compactor. No swinging across an abyss. No chase scenes. Boring.
