I can see how I might lose this, but I would not be sweating like this if I had just had normal aa losses.

yeah I know how you feel about the dice, but I think we’ve both had our sahre of bad dice this time.

The point is your sea lion thing worked really well (for the time being).

[corriganbp]

Alright, I won’t complain, but sit down with 9 regular dice some time, and tell me how many hours you have to roll before you get 7 out of 9 hits!!

I may have had some nudges here and there – but that’s amazing.

LOL yeah you might want to stay away from the casino.
