Yes for always allowing recording be it by hand or video.

Do you favor allowing an opponent to hand-record his own match or for a third-party to hand-record it?

Do you favor allowing an opponent to record by both video and hand-recording?

I have not seen baffle boxes but I think I would have no problem using a properly constructed baffle box if cups are used to shake or drop the dice into the baffle box.

I will say I am not sold on the use of rolling dice in a plastic jar. I have not seen the prototypes with the pins and all, but at this point I am a skeptic who thinks it distracts from the aesthetics of the game. Also, if I am such a cheater, the type who would quickly pick up my dice and claimed a cocked roll when it wasn't, then what is to keep me from just knocking over (oops!) the baffle tube if it produces a roll I don't like?
