In Response To: This seems to be an improvement, but I still prefer to roll dice, either onto the board or thru a baffle box (neilkaz)

A player vigorously swirls the dice tube in his/her oversize cup and dumps it through a giant baffle box that is designed to clasp the tube at the end of its journey and make it vertical.

There is an arm on each side of the baffle box such that if both players pull down at the same time, the tube will jiggle. No more reroll hassle on stuck or cocked dice or numbers that both players claim to be their disadvantage; just agree and jiggle.

What could be more elegant?
