donor dice lounge rules

Should be put into the rules that a tie = automatic reroll.

Its something that's unofficially held by the people that dice and it should be put in the rules to avoid future miscommunications/scam attempts

 

I've never heard of this being a problem? I mean someone can't claim a win if there is a tie... I think thats straight forward. I suppose this could be added in if others think that this could cause confusion

 

Once you roll, you pretty much acknowledge that there is no going back, and continuation should be necessary to declare a winner if a tie were to happen. This should at least be the default ruling.

Support

 

Please show me where a tie & refusal to roll again has been used to attempt a scam, I just can't envision a scenario right now

What? Why?
If somebody bets, goes into a tie and thinks to himself fuck this I don't want to loose my cash and drops out while he's even, how is that a scam, or in any way not the right thing to do in the dicing world?

It's definitely not a scam unless both parties agreed to re-rolling on ties which isn't commonly shown in the dice thread.

A tie usually results in either a refund or a re-roll, although automatic re-rolling is the more preferred staple so people won't back out in duels.

Unless there is an issue that arises in the middle of a duel that involves the compromise of ones pot, there shouldn't be any backing out. If you aren't prepared to lose, you shouldn't be gambling in the first place.

 

I really don't see the issue in backing out in the event of the tie

This.

Should agree to what happens before rolling a tie in the first place, but making this the default is fine i guess

Okay let's say me and you roll a tie

Then I post my re roll because I assume that's what we're doing and you post "I'm going to walk while I'm even" literally seconds after mine without reading my post. This looks like an attempted scam because if you were to see that I rolled high and then posted that you could get away with scamming potentially.

Then that would be your fault for assuming.

Should only re-roll if you state tie is re-roll

If it's not stated anywhere in the dice rules and everyone is doing it, is it really my fault for assuming?


If we don't add this as a rule then we should put that people should clarify in their original bet what happens in case of a tie

 

I can add a rule stating that in the event of a tie, nobody wins and the dice bet ends there. Anyone who wants to reroll can easily just talk with the other player, post the bet again, and roll.

That's like instantly rolling for a DoN without agreeing to do so?

Ties should NOT be an instant reroll, but should be discussed in the thread, or on skype/pm before proceeding.

Perfect!

 

That's good superman, they shouldn't be forced into re-rolling if they don't want to do so

Just because a few people assume the same thing doesnt make them right.

As long as a decision is made to avoid confusion I don't mind.


But ghast first post points out my opinion perfectly
