Say what you want but this is a good formation in my opinion. it's based on the assumption that roughly speaking only 4,5 and 6 appear.
and then we make sure that for each auto-rolling dice, it is surrounded by 3 static dice with the numbers 4,5 and 6. so the pattern is found esily with that.
and you can totally expand this pattern further and further.
only big question is:
what is better or more efficient:
having each rolling dice be surrounded by 3 dices with 6?
or 3 dices with the numbers 4,5,6?
latter option kind of guarantees a multiplier with each throw, 6 is less likely but gives more money?
(honestly didnt read the 2 same dice rule too closely)
I tested this a little. There doesn't appear to be any extra bonus for bordering more than one of a matched number. Matching just one of the the 3 surrounding dice gives the same multiplier as matching all three.
So the points you get for rolling the dice in either setup are:
Setup 4 + 5 + 6 | Setup 6 + 6 + 6 |
1 = 4 | 1 = 4 |
2 = 5 | 2 = 5 |
3 = 6 | 3 = 6 |
4 = 14 | 4 = 7 |
5 = 16 | 5 = 8 |
6 = 18 | 6 = 18 |
This makes your setup where each rolled die is surrounded by 4, 5, and 6 much better than all 6s.
