In Response To: USBGF Rules - permitting dice to land on checkers is a bad rule (pictures) (Dorn Bishop)

Looking again at your second photo and its accompanying description, it looks like the die on the non-dimpled checkers is not flat. If so, then it's cocked and must be re-rolled. Dice must land flat on checkers or the board; the only exception occurs when dice land on dimpled checkers with the dimple itself causing the angle.
