32 - [video]

[ The video shows just a table and a close up of a small bowl and three six-sided dice. Tyr talks from behind the device. ]

I realised a while ago that most people here don't know how to play chinchirorin. I'm not sure if it's only popular in my world, but it's my favourite game, so...

You need to have two people, a bowl, and three dice. You might be able to play with more than two people at once, but I wouldn't recommend it.

All you do is take turns rolling the dice into the bowl after the both of you agree on an amount to be wagered. It can be any amount, but since the currency here isn't entirely standard, you should keep all bets to the same colour, like five greens or fourteen reds...

Anyway. [ He brings the dice forward so they're in clear view. ] When you roll, you want to get two of the dice on the same number and the third on a different one. [ He flips one of the dice to show two threes and a four. ] That different one will be your score. In this case, it'd be four. When the other person rolls, their score will be compared to yours, and the person with the higher score wins the wagered money...

That's the boring part, though. There are a few special rolls, too. To start, if you mess up and one of your dice falls out of the bowl, you automatically lose and need to give the other person all the money you bet. Try not to do that.

You can also automatically lose by rolling one-two-three. [ Flipping the dice around to show that. ] And in this case, you'll have pay the other person double. The reverse is true if you roll four-five-six, and then you're paid double.

Now if you get a storm, three of the same number, [ He turns them around for a set of fours. ] you also automatically win, but the loser needs to pay triple the amount you bet. ...Unless you roll three ones, then you lose and need to give the other person three times as much...

[ With a sigh, he scoops up the dice in one hand puts them in the bowl. Demonstration over! He brings the camera around to show his face. ]

Any questions?

[ ooc: Haha, since people are playing, I'll just shove a link to a random dice-roller here! ]
