Rolling snake eyes five times in a row with dice is doable also. But the probability of doing it is very low. Now imagine that every 10th roll somebody hands you a pair of weighted dice where the probability of rolling a 1 is a lot higher than any other number. It doesn't mean you will roll snake eyes five times in a row, but it greatly skews the probability. That is how the software behind CC works.

If you ever played slots in Vegas or AC you would understand also. The software inside the machines is written to pay out a much higher percentage of times if somebody just walks up to the machine (the machine is idle for some pre-determined amount of time), vs. somebody that feeds coins into the machine as fast as he/she can, especially if sitting there for a while. Perform this task and see if a light bulb goes off. If you play CC 5 times in a row on a level like this, maybe you will get one board where you come close. If you play a couple times, walk away for an hour, come back and play a couple more times, you will see that your probability of getting a board where you can progress far or complete the level is greatly increased.

It would be impossible to complete some of these most recent CC levels based upon truly random candy distribution, at the start and during play. Some levels are designed where the probability of completing is like rolling snake eyes once. Other levels are designed where the probability of completing them is like rolling snake eyes twice in row. The worst ones are designed where the probabiliy of completing them is like rolling snake eyes three times in a row or more...unless of course the software designers skew the probability every now and again by handing you a pair of weighted dice.

The folks that play CC are not at the mercy of the candy gods, they are manipulated by the software developers.
