Liar's Dice
The basic premise of the game is that players bet on the number of times a single face value came up in the round's roll. If a bet seems unrealistic other players may call the bluff and cause the bettor or themselves to lose dice depending on the accuracy of the bet.
When the game begins all players must be set to a respective tag. DND being Do Not Digest, Away being digest, OOC for watchers and PRED for sideline predators. All players when asked will then pm the GM with !5d6 to obtain their dice numbers. These numbers are the face values of the dice the player rolled. Bets will always begin at one 1. When the first player's turn is up, they adjust the bet. Bets can only go up in quantity, or the face value may be changed if it isn't moved up in quantity.
For example the bet is five 1's. The next bet cannot be lower than five of any face value. But you can change the number being bet upon without moving up in quantity. So you can change the bet to be five 2's/3's/4's/5's/6's. Or in the case of moving the bet up, you can move to six or more of any face value.
Bets are made on all die in play, not just one person's roll. When you call, you are saying that there are not enough die in the pot with the bet's face value.
A few points of terminology
Bettor: The person placing the bet
Caller: The person disagreeing with the bet
If a bet is called into question all players must cease chatter and the GM will then count up the number in question. For example a bet is two 3's. The GM will count all 3's rolled and if there are three or more 3's, the bid is correct. If there is only two 3's, the bet is considered spot on. If there is one 3, the bet is incorrect.
A bid may be called at any point in the game after any bid by any player but the bettor. Please allow a few seconds between bets for a call to be announced. To call a bet please post in bold, "Bet call." The person who posted a bet call first will be the pred in the event that the bettor loses their last die.
On call, if the bet is incorrect, the bettor loses one die. If the bet is correct, the caller loses one. If the bet is spot on, everyone but the bettor loses one die. If the bettor has lost their last die, the caller becomes the pred to remove them from the game. If the caller loses their last die, the bettor becomes the pred to remove them from the game. In the event that a call is made and spot on is declared where one or more person loses their last die, the bettor becomes the pred to remove all of the losing persons.
Once a call has been issued and dealt with, all users will re-roll their dice numbers to the GM. If you lose a die, you roll one less die number in the next round, so four die remaining rolls !4d6 three die remaining rolls !3d6 etc.
