You're all incredibly unlucky, because some others are incredibly lucky. My results are fairly average.

That's just how it can go. And most RNGs are basically pseudo-RNGs because they're not based on natural phenomenas that are truly random, so they can occasionally be perceived as prone to extreme values.

You're doing the math on a few samples, but you'd have to gather the data from all players, all checks, all the time to get a more reliable picture of how well the system works at acting random.
