In Response To: no shouting, please (Jakob Garal)

It is not as if 6-6 or 2-1 or any other number inherently possesses a certain amount of luck. The luck of a given dice roll swings wildly depending on the actual position on the board.

Once the positions in the two games diverge, as they inevitably do, the fact that the dice are the same on both boards is nothing but a curiosity.
