I just got 13 rolls of 3 in a row. I think there may be an issue with the RNG

I also got something like 12 rolls of 3 in a row. I would definitely check the RNG routine to ensure that it is not biased to the mean (i.e., verify that you are drawing from a uniform, rather than normal, distribution).
Ha, that's pretty random to me!
