It's just bad luck. I've had the same thing happen. I've seen C2s that would refuse to sink, or take upwards of 20 hours to go down. Last night, I ran across a Nelson Class BB in a convoy - 7 eels in various locations, only listing - never sank. Later, I nailed 1 Troop Transport, and 6 Destroyers, all with 1 Torp. Just chalk it up to duds, especially early in the war....
