Sounds intriguing. I'm not sure I would have the patience for the days or
weeks necessary to play this way, though.
How would you roll dice? I'm a fairly trusting person, but it would be
hard to buy a roll that was, say, 80% "6"s. I've seen it in real life often
enough, but some guy on e-mail saying "Wow. 8 out of 10..." would give me a
twinge of suspicion...
