You obvisoiuly can (and should) believe whatever you like. It's impossible to prove that FBG is not cheating. But the data does not support it.

Some players do succeed this challlenge on the first attempt, some on the second, etc. And some will take 10 attempts. Now we have two leading hypotheses here:


 * 1) The game is fair and works as advertised.
 * 2) The game is rigged in such a way that you personally get implausibly bad results while other players get implausibly good results.

Note that if the game is fair, then it's almost guaranteed for some players to personally observe the bad luck you describe. So both above hypotheses support the observed data.

(here's a thought excercise: suppose you develop your own game and you make sure it runs fairly. Now thousands of players play it, and some of them inevitably get a really bad run. How would you convince them that you did not rig the game agains them?)

Believe whatever you choose.
