Framing the Issue

Let's get 2 things straight ... Every roll is random. Humans can control the dice. Huh? Trust me.

Questions:

Correct Terminology

  • Dice Controller

  • Dice Influencer

  • Controlled Shooter

  • Experienced Shooter

  • Rhythm Roller

  • Random Roller

Is every throw random?

  • Yes, of course

  • But is this black and white?

  • Are there degrees of random?

    • How does a dice controller try to overcome randomness?

What are dice controllers trying to control, exactly, and how?

This is a great opportunity to share survey results (70% want to avoid 7, 22% want to target #s)

  • The 7

    • Prolonging rolls

    • Gaining an advantage over house edge

    • Changing the probabilities

  • Targeting numbers specifically

Can the dice be controlled?

Share some reddit, email, and youtube comments here. Unfortunately lots of negative stuff from this side of the argument.

The Case For

  • Physics are real

  • Humans are capable of superhuman things

  • Practice makes perfect

    • Look at Golf, Archery, Goalball

  • The non-quantifyable argument:

    • "If it wasn't real, there wouldn't be countermeasures"

    • And there are MANY countermeasures...

The Case Against

Share some images of people selling "never lose" systems

  • The hardware -- table, back wall makes it actually impossible

  • The time suck at the table

  • Fantasy land

    • I've tried and failed and have given up on the fantasy

    • It's a unicorn, plain and simple

    • Snake oil salesmen

Can it be proven either way?

Share the machine study and other folks that have tried

  • Mechanical trials

  • Lack of data

  • Slow Motion
