Terao v. Cameron http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/21184037 I saw that poor fellow on the top toss his dice so hard that they landed just about everywhere. He wasted more time on second rolls that any player I have ever seen. If he were a tennis player, and I were his coach, I would be telling him to take just a little bit off his first serve! Mochy v. Michy New rules for exhibition match ...Rule 4. Place the dice on his side of the bar After making a move, we place the dice on his side of the bar. That clearly indicates who is on roll when one player thinks about cube. Here’s what I said in another thread about the dice handling: This is a nice idea for viewers, but for players, it upends one of the advantages of using clocks. When a player must leave his dice on the board, rather than pick them up, there is less chance for a dispute to arise over what the roll was. And here is a link to the video wherein that rule was followed: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/21153936 Mike
