Hey Sir,
I am of course super happy to see these great dice for me at Finland and I can absolutely understand the frustration (boy, I get on tilt already for way less of bad luck)

Regarding low luck rerolls I have a track record in the league that I never played with them and I never accepted them even if got them offered voluntarily by my opponent after I experienced dice disasters. (Just just refused one in the semi final after my failed 96 attack.

I believe LL rerolls influence the dynamics of the game in a negative way.

Thus, I hope you understand that I would like to continue without any kind of rerolls.

Best,
Tobias

To be clear: You will review NCM and drop me a note when I can continue, right?

Alright!

Regarding the alternative game continuing with LL dice in Finland, I would like to be frank, I do not say no, but also not yes at the moment. My biggest worry is that it would be hard for me to play my A game in such an alternative universe game so I am not sure whether this would provide the required gain of knowledge.

But as said, depends a bit on the timing and my schedule, so this is definitely not a “no” to your suggestion.

Best,
Tobias
