Statistics by color/seat

I wonder whether it would be easy for someone on the server side to pull stats on whether the win percentage is evenly spread over the 7 seats/colors, or whether there is a bias. I suspect you wouldn't see an even spread at least one some maps.

You wouldn't see an even spread due to RANDOM VARIATION.

Get over yourselves people, color does not affect the outcome of your play/luck!!!

Color per se does not affect play/luck, but position might. If you sit first, you may be able to lead other players to a table you like. If you sit last, you know who your opponents will be. If you sit first, leave your seat, and sit last, you could combine both these advantages. So color might affect game outcome, since color is associated with position.

color might affect your odds slightly. perhaps the community as a whole might tend to attack unpopular colors (seems that yellow is most unpopular), versus popular ones (such as red or blue). perhaps a 1% or 2% difference, so it would take a ton of data to achieve low enough uncertainty for a good p-value.

Just start with the percentage of wins given the turn number by the number of lands on a table.
