Day 2
Time: 6:38pm
You are fighting a pack of Yahtzee dice.
Round 1C
McGill catches his two.
A die rolls towards Melkor's Ghost, landing on four. It fails to harm him.
Status Updates
The party has captured 4 twos.
Safety Numbers
Ward: 6
Melkor's Ghost: 7
Pikachu: 8
McGill: 5
Pete: 10
The party is currently in the Game Preserve (the Mesa of Craps).
At this point, you can choose to try and capture the four or just leave it (it won't attack again.) If you leave it, you get 8 points for the twos. If it's captured, you'll get 12 points for a four-of-a-kind. In either case, you won't be able to use that particular category again.

Pete votes in favor of leaving it and completting the twos for eight legs....er...points.

The lonely four feels lost without his pack and wanders to join a new pack of dice. The twos wander over to a scorched sheet of rock (Scorched sheet. Score sheet. Get it? Meh. They can't all be winners.) and take their place in the two slot. The other packs of Yahtzee dice look on in acknowledgment and two of the weaker dice run away.
Before the group can re-group, another pack charges up to attack!

"Well, Ward, I'll try to capture this here '3' for you..."

Yes. It works like... um... Yahtzee. Any dice you "capture" are the dice you keep. The others "attack" again by re-rolling.

"I for one suggest that we try to capture the 1s here, rather than holding out for the straight. Just cutting our losses, that's all. But I definitely think we should get a consensus before acting either way -- I'm fine with pushing for the straight if that's what the group wants."
