The Little Rules Matter

You said that you believed your opponent was not cheating when he was changing his dice when you were not looking. But he was, even if the dice he was changing were fair, because it's not allowed to change dice in the middle of a game.

I understand what you are saying -- I like to make a distinction between "cheating" and "breaking the rules", even though it's a fine distinction.

To me, cheating involves doing something against to get an unfair advantage.

Breaking the rules simply means not following the procedures outlined, and doesn't necessarily imply cheating.

So I do agree that in this case, my opponent was breaking the rules, but I am very skeptical that he was doing so to try to gain an unfair advantage. I think his dice swap was just a dumb superstition.
