Question about luck percentage

In stats, should the luck percentage be the average of the luck percentages from each game? I've played 4 games so far this month, and my stats summary says my luck is 51.5%, but the average of the 4 games' luck percentages is actually 45.3 ... Am I doing something wrong?

well, if you rolled dice 10 times in a game with an average luck of 40% and 20 times in a game with average luck of 60%, then your average luck of both games is:

(40% * 10 + 60% * 20) / 30 = 53.33%

that's your answer.

Sometimes there's a lag between your most recent games and the summary. I'm fairly certain the reported percentage is weighted based on the number of rounds in the games played (so your 52.3% over 28 rounds was far more influential than 28.3% over one round).
