So on CP, 1 out of every 5.87 cups rolled appears to be a winner, quite a bit better than the 1/9 odds.

The numbers seem to suggest people on CP are quite lucky, but gauging by the Flames playoff success in the last 17 years, I'm going to blame this statistical anomaly on Locke not posting his winning (or moreso, losing) ratio .
Interesting, thanks for that.
