True, maybe, BUT... The pattern I see is we have maintenance issues and then a period of horrible luck, and when we aren't solving blocks someone else is. Sometimes I think the pool 'appears' to be working fine, but behind the scenes perhaps it is not, either way we usually don't get much feedback on what is happening. I'd love to see a time-series plot of our daily blocks found overlaid with the maintenance issues or tickets submitted. My hypothesis is during times of high issues reported that our blocks solved dips significantly. From what I see it's always during and after periods with technical issues that we have horrible "luck", which really makes the 'luck' value something other than pure.

Just because the Quality Inn sign says "Quality" does not mean it is, labels don't tell the whole story and often over-simplify the truth.
