Except that some people are claiming that even though the server dice distribution is statistically indistinguishable from a random distribution -- which is technically what you are testing -- that the luck factor is too high. (Yes you could run more test and perhaps find something deep in the dice data, but it is doubtful this would be significant enough to be an issue for game play) After the issue last year with the SHG dice Mike Petch analyzed over a million rolls from SHG precision dice rooms and found the distribution not to deviate from expected. This test was done by "chair" in the rooms to look for any positional bias. I have over 120,000 rolls in my XG profile from SHG which pass the stat test it uses for server dice. Even when you make this evidence available to people they will use the "luck is too high" argument.
