Dice been rolling bad for 2 months

Hey .. why the dice hate... We roll a dice poll of 23 dice /r 23d6>5 for a Shadowrun game and 2 successes.. ALL THE TIME... 3 successes on 13d6 ALL THE TIME.. if not that it is no successes or just 1. So frustrating. this is for every one in my Wednesday game I GM and for the game I play in on Saturday.
rolling 12d6>5 Test roll (1+6+2+1+6+2+2+4+1+3+3+4)>5 = 2 Successes Sam: rolling 12d6>5 Test roll (4+5+2+4+5+4+1+1+6+4+6+1)>5 = 4 Successes rolling 12d6>5 Test roll (5+5+6+3+1+2+3+2+3+3+2+4)>5 = 3 Successes rolling 12d6>5 Test roll (1+2+2+2+3+3+3+1+2+1+5+4)>5 = 1 Successes rolling 12d6>5 Test roll (1+2+5+1+6+4+6+3+2+4+5+3)>5 = 4 Successes rolling 12d6>5 Test roll (2+3+1+5+2+2+5+2+4+1+5+6)>5 = 4 Successes rolling 12d6>5 Test roll (6+4+2+3+6+1+5+2+4+4+4+2)>5 = 3 Successes Sam: rolling 12d6>5 Test roll (6+2+1+2+1+3+2+4+2+2+5+5)>5 = 3 Successes Sam: rolling 12d6>5 (4+1+1+2+1+2+1+6+2+1+4+3)>5 = 1 Successes
Looks good to me. >5 means 6's, which is a 1/6 chance. If you roll it 12 times, you should receive 2 successes on average. You're receiving 2.77777... on average for your rolls. I'd be happy with those rolls.

VelaRayet: The greater-than and less-than symbols are used in place of the greater-than or equal-to and less-than or equal-to symbols. As a result anything that is a 5 or 6 is a success in Joshua's test. - Gauss
Ah, I've never done successes. Yeah, that does seem low then. Should be 4's on average. Sorry, mate.
