7-UP 7-DOWN (beta)
Story: So you walk into the casino, drunk and broke. "Give me the lowest stakes game, please!" you say. Barry points to me, and I pull you onto here. "Hi there", I say. "I've got some good news for you. It's a game called 7-up our 7-down!."
Objective: The game master shall roll a pair of die five times every weekend. Then, an average will be taken. This average will lie between 2 and 12, with the median as 7. In the week before the roll, you, the player, have to do nothing but guess. You have to guess the following:
a) Whether the number is 7-UP or 7-DOWN: The rule is simple.
7-UP: The average over five die is greater than 7 or equals 7 with first number greater than 3.
7-DOWN: The average over five die is less than 7, or equal to 7, with first number less than or equal to 3.
b)The three number range in which the average will lie. Example: (2-4) consists 2,3 and 4. You can choose only three consecutive numbers.
c) The exact number which the average (when rounded off) is. Example: 6.2=6.
Wagers: Ticket cost is 300 for General (G), and 600 for Individual Dice (I). The Distribution is as follows: 7 UP/ 7 DOWN: 50 (G) and 100 (I) Three number range: 100:-X (G) and 200 (I) Exact Number: 150 and 300
Winnings: ~ Distribution Price (50 (G) and 100 (I)) will be winning if 7 UP/ 7 DOWN is correct. ~ 1.5X Distribution Price (150 (G) and 300 (I)) will be winning if Three Number Range is correct. ~ 3X Distribution Price (300 (G) and 600:-X (I)) will be winning if exact number is correct. ~ If any two are correct, the total tacos won and an additional 300 is won. (Example, if you win 7u/7d, and exact number, then you win in general, 500 , not just 200 ) ~ If all three are correct then JACKPOT, an additional 600 is won. (Example, in general, you stand to win 1,100 ) ~ If in individual, you hit SUPEREME JACKPOT, that is, Dice number and Prediction match, you win 1,200 additionally.

I ... don't get it. I get the part about the exact number and the number range. But why would I bet on up or down if the best-case-scenario is getting my money back? Even I'm not that gambling addicted. And I make bets on German Basketball ^^

OK, I'll try to participate in testing a dice game.
Let me know please whether these numbers make any sense or not.
By the way, my guess is that the simpler for users you design a forum game of chance, the more patrons the game will accumulate over the time. If it's possible to design a dice game where we all still can bet while distracted & drunk & disorderly, it would be an advantage. (Prime example for simplicity in betting is the XKI lottery, where we only need to know the difference between 3 digit and 4 digit numbers, and add up the sum of our taco wagers.) If for example you want to shift away from the medians and averages, and let us bet directly on thrown numbers between 1 and 6, it might make it easier for patrons to grasp how they can bet, while they're really thinking of other things in the background.
