Sure.  I'm just saying what I see...  Recently the players have been lucky.  Two of the top three "Big Winners" listed on http://www.satoshidice.com/ which lists the biggest wins of all time have been in the last 24 hours.  The biggest loss of all time was also in the last 24 hours, but I documented that 219 BTC loss in the post you replied to - it just happens that the biggest loss ever was part of a winning martingale chain.

In case it's not clear, there is no way of winning long term on satoshi dice without cheating.  There's no way you can turn a positive house edge into a negative house edge simply by adjusting your bet sizes.  I probably assume that everyone knows this when they don't.  That's not to say you can't play and walk away with a profit.  Just that if you keep playing long enough, eventually the house edge will guarantee that you lose.
