A quiz to use with dice complainers

Without wishing to give succor to the dice moaners your quiz begs the question it is trying to answer. If the dice are fair then the probability of rolling each sequence of rolls is equal. If the dice are not fair then these sequences are not necessarily equally probable. So your quiz does nothing to establish whether the dice are fair or not. I prefer to offer to bet with those who insist the dice are unfair at better than fair odds.
