Weez - 130
I rolled 6 on 2d6
I rolled 2d6 and also got 6 so I re-rolled 2d6 for 11.
I rerolled & got 8 so you are before me..
I rolled and got 11. I rolled a second time and got a 5.
I rolled 2d6 again since Don tied me and got a 9.
Actually Don's 11 roll was the first one, so Don goes first, then Weez, then Exeter and I'm last!
Take it away Don!
Don’s Turn 1Movement: I started on Wild 1 and rolled a
6 which lands me on 4 and since I am first, anything goes.
Don's First Roll:
Don rolled d6,d6,d6,d6,d6 and got 5, 1, 4, 6, 6.
Don's Second Roll:
keeping 2 sixies: re-rolling 5,1,4
Don rolled d6,d6,d6 and got 5, 1, 6
Don's Third Roll:
keeping 3 sixies: re-rolling 5,1,4
Don rolled d6,d6 and got 5, 4
was
6, 6, 6, 5, 4. I'll take that as the Chance over 25 Tile for
60 points.
Move Roll
I got a 2 so I moved from Wild 5 to spot 7.
Yahtzee Rolls
1st Roll -- 5 5 1 5 6 -- Promising! Rerolling 1 6
2nd Roll -- 5 5 5 4 2 -- Rerolling 4 2
3rd Roll -- 5 5 5 6 2 -- Didn't live up to that promise though. I think I'll take the 3 of a Kind.
Weez
Move Roll
W9 + 6 = 15
Turn Roll
Roll 1 - 4,4,3,4,1 Reroll 3,1
Roll 2 - 3,1------ Stuck... Kicked it! Reroll 3,1 again
Roll 3 - 1,3
Oh hell, I kicked it too hard... knocked it around backwards.
1,3,4,4,4 - 4s tile
Gypsy's Turn 1 Move roll = 1 puts me on 14.
Yahtzee roll:
6 6 3 4 1 -- Reroll 3 4 1
3 3 6
Full house!
Don’s Turn 2Movement: I started on 4 and rolled a
4 which lands me on 8 which is empty.
Don's First Roll:
Don rolled d6,d6,d6,d6,d6 and got 2, 1, 5, 2, 4
Don's Second Roll:
keeping 2 twos: re-rolling 1,5,4
Don rolled d6,d6,d6 and got 4, 3, 2
Don's Third Roll:
keeping 3 twos: re-rolling 4,3
Don rolled d6,d6 and got 3, 3
was
2, 2, 2, 3, 3. That's a Full House which I can't use because Jill just grabbed it and I'm not on a wild so I will take the Twos Tile for
30 points instead.
Beat ya to it!
Gypsy, your turn is confirmed and cleared.
Move RollI got a 1 which moved me to spot 8 with Don's 2s tile.
Yahtzee Rolls1st Roll -- 3 1 2 5 2 -- Rerolling 3 1 5
2nd Roll -- 2 2 3 6 3 -- Rerolling 3 6 3

Weez
Move Roll
3 takes me from 15 to 2
Turn Rolls
Roll 1 - 5,6,4,6,5 Too bad it's not a Wild Tile - Reroll 5,4,5

4 which lands me on Wild 13 where anything goes, except for me, for me nothing goes there
.
Don's First Roll:
Don rolled d6,d6,d6,d6,d6 and got 3, 6, 4, 2, 2
Don's Second Roll:
keeping 2 twos: re-rolling 3, 6, 4
Don rolled d6,d6,d6 and got 1, 5, 2
And right about here is when I realized my idea that all rolls were safe because I was on a wild was faulty because you can't steal from yourself. Well, I suppose you could but it accomplishes nothing. At this point I am convinced the the Wild curse is continuing, though this time it is my own fault but there's nothing for it but to roll on.
Don's Third Roll:
Don's third roll: keeping 2 twos: re-rolling 1, 5
Don rolled d6,d6 and got 1, 1
Wheew! <swiping at forehead> I actually got a bit of luck on a Wild square.
was
2, 2, 2, 1, 1. That means I'll be stealing the Full House Tile for
50 points and moving to 14?

Yahtzee roll:
5 2 3 6 6 -- Reroll 5 2 3

Don's First Roll:

Roll 1 - 4,3,3,5,3 Reroll 4,5
Roll 2 - 1,6------ Reroll 1,6
Roll 3 - 4,4
3,3,3,4,4 - 4oK
Gypsy's Turn 4 Move roll = 5 puts me on 16 and I'm stalking Weez!
Yahtzee roll:
1 4 4 5 6 -- Reroll 1 5 6
5 5 6 ------ Reroll 5 5 6
6 2 4
Stalking but not emulating
Don’s Turn 5Movement: I started on 2 and rolled a
2 which lands me on 4 which is mine, which I believe means I roll again. This time I rolled a

Don's Third Roll:
keeping 3 ones:re-rolling 3,6

was
1, 1, 1, 4, 3. Which means I steal the ones tile for
30 points and move to 11.
Gypsy, your rolls have been dealt with.

Yahtzee Rolls1st Roll -- 2 4 3 3 1 -- Rerolling all.
2nd Roll -- 4 5 6 5 2 -- Rerolling 4 5 5 2
3rd Roll -- 6 2 5 3 5 -- Don gets to keep his tile for now.
Weez
Edit: I guess Don wasn't actually there, but his tile was/is.
Move Roll of 5 takes me from 7 to 12 which is open.
Roll 1 - 1,2,4,1,3 Either way I need 5s - Reroll 1
Roll 2 - 6-------- Reroll 6
Roll 3 - 3
1,2,3,3,4 - Nothing there...
Gypsy's Turn 5 Move roll = 3 puts me on 2, which is mine. Reroll of 6 takes me to WILD 9!
Yahtzee roll:
Score: 11222 Moving to 14 to collect my prize from Don!

Yahtzee Rolls1st Roll -- 5 1 6 2 3 -- Rerolling 5 1 6 2
2nd Roll -- 3 6 2 4 4 -- Rerolling all those non-3s again.
6 2 4 4
3rd Roll -- 3 4 2 2 2 -- Now I understand why it is a little tile.
Nada for me.
Weez
Move Roll of 4 takes me from 12 to 16 where I'll need Weez's 4oK.
Roll 1 - 5,2,1,1,5 Reroll 5,2,5
Roll 2 - 3,2,4---- Reroll 3,2,4
Roll 3 - 3,5,5
Went the wrong way...
Gypsy's Turn 6 Move roll = 4 puts me on 2, which is Don's 6s
Yahtzee roll:
1 4 1 3 5 -- Reroll all
1 4 3 2 6 -- Reroll 1 4 3 2
2 1 3 6
So I am the third in a row to make a move of 4 and fail to capture a tile. Let's see if Don can keep up the sequence!

3rd Roll -- 5 5 5 4 6 -- I think I will take Don's Chance instead.

Roll 1 - 2,2,6,3,2 Reroll 2,2,6,2
Roll 2 - 2,5,3,2-- Reroll 2,5,2 I probably should've tried for a Yahtzee in 2s
Roll 3 - 6,5,4
3,3,4,5,6 doesn't help much...
Gypsy's Turn 7 Move roll = 3 puts me on WILD 5!

Weez
Move Roll of 1 takes me from 12 to Wild 13.
Roll 1 - 3,2,1,2,2 Reroll 3,1
Roll 2 - 2,2
Well, now... I think I'll take that as a Large Straight.
And with that the end game starts!
Gypsy's Turn Free For All Move roll = 1 puts me on 8 and Weez's 2s
Yahtzee roll:
2 3 1 5 4 -- Reroll 3 1 5 4

1 5 3 3
And it really is the end for me
Don’s Free For AllMovement: I started on 3 and rolled a
6 which lands me on wild nine, where anything goes.
Don's First Roll:
Don rolled d6,d6,d6,d6,d6 and got 5, 4, 1, 4, 3
Don's Second Roll:
can't use the 4s ot the 3 so I am keeping 1 five: re-rolling 4, 1, 4, 3
Don rolled d6,d6,d6,d6 and got 4, 5, 1, 1
Don's Third Roll:
keeping 2 fives: re-rolling 4, 1, 1
Don rolled d6,d6,d6 and got 6, 4, 6
was
5, 5, 6, 4, 6. And my bad luck with wilds continues. At least it's enough to steal the five tile for
20 points.
Don’s Free For All turn 2Movement: I started on 12 and rolled a
5 which lands me on wild one, where anything goes.
Don's First Roll:
Don rolled d6,d6,d6,d6,d6 and got 5, 1, 5, 1, 1
I have the full house and I have ones so only choice seems to be to try and upgrade my 2 fives.
Don's Second Roll:
keeping 2 fives: re-rolling 1,1,1
Don rolled d6,d6,d6 and got 1, 5, 3
Don's Third Roll:
keeping 3 fives: re-rolling 1,3
Don rolled d6,d6 and got 3, 4
was
5, 5, 5, 3, 4. Which upgrades my five tile to
30 points moves me back to 12 and gives me another roll.
Don’s Free For All turn 3Movement: I started on 12 and rolled a
4 which lands me on 16 and Weez's Four of a Kind.
Don's First Roll:
Don rolled d6,d6,d6,d6,d6 and got 5, 3, 5, 6, 4
Don's Second Roll:
keeping 2 fives: re-rolling 3,6,4
Don rolled d6,d6,d6 and got 5, 4, 6
Don's Third Roll:
keeping 3 fives: re-rolling 4,6
Don rolled d6,d6 and got 2, 3
was
5, 5, 5, 2, 3 which doesn't steal the Four of a Kind Tile and ends my game.
Don, on your first turn, couldn't you have gone for the Chance tile?
You're right. On the second turn I had 23 on the first roll. I just didn't see the Chance possibility. It would have made more sense than trying to upgrade fives. 60 vs 10 points. We'll have to see what Jill says. In meantime I won't finalize my last two rolls.
I think your first choice should stand as the next two turns depend on where you ended up on turn 1. Sorry Don. And could you redo turns 2 & 3 into the format of turn 1. It is hard to follow upsidedown, with no destination stated and no result concluded, thanks!
Actually I was thinking of the second roll not the first one but you are right. If I didn't see it, I didn't see it. All done. now.
Thanks!
Weez, your turn for Free For All
Gypsy, your rolls are cleared.
Move RollI got a 5 so I moved from spot 14 to spot 3 where Gypsy's small straight tile is sitting.
Yahtzee Rolls1st Roll -- 4 2 6 1 4 -- Doesn't look much like a straight. Rerolling 4 6
2nd Roll -- 1 2 4 6 6 -- That doesn't help. Rerolling 6 6
3rd Roll -- 1 2 4 6 4 -- I feel like I should have rerolled everything for the 2nd roll. Ah well. That was a boring end for me. I'm sure Gypsy is happy about that though.
Weez
It's my only tile! Thank you
Move Roll of 6 takes me from 10 to 16 where I'd need 4oK...
Roll 1 - 6,4,6,5,2 Reroll 4,5,2
Roll 2 - 4,2,2---- Reroll 4,2,2
Roll 3 - 1,5,5
1,5,5,6,6 doesn't come close.
And Don is the winner!
I'll add to the stats 7 then be taking a break until the new year.
Other than Don's turn, that was a pretty tame free for all! Congrats Don!
Oh and thanks again Gypsy.
No problem
And the girls are still leading the boys... just!
IN message #878129 on Wed Apr 19 2017 03:55 PM you posted...
Nope - and I knew someone would ask because I spotted it and checked myself! grin One game, Game 18, you and Exeter tied for first place so you both got credited with an individual win but it is still only ONE victory for the boys! lol
Weez and I are still supreme.. but maybe not for much longer
So shouldn't the score be even now?
Nope! If you look at the results we have played 23 now, 12 to the girls and 11 to the boys!
