Roll 20 favors 6s?

So I'm listening to CW as my introduction to FatT and am about three episodes in. Really starting to enjoy the series as everyone settles into their characters.

The one thing that nags at me is how often they roll 6s. Almost 90% of the rolls have had 6s and I feel like they're coming out of scenarios unscathed because of it.

Is that real or is there something up with Roll 20 that they address later? They all seem so surprised at how well they're rolling so I assume this is somewhat abnormal.

it does not. And that is probably the most 6's we ever see in an area on FATT

Not sure which system they were using with CW but they might be rolling a few dice and picking the highest (I'm sure someone can confirm!) But they usually just say the highest, rather than "I got 1, 2 and 6" they just say "6!"

Its mostly because they were rolling so many dice at the time. That system let people roll 4-5 dice, so they had a far higher chance of hitting one.

six is one of the more statistically likely numbers to roll.
