Is Yahtzee vorin?

The Way of Kings

From one perspective, obviously not. You’re rolling the dice, taking certain results with the goal of achieving a specific total. “Predicting” that you’ll get the result you want.

But from another perspective things get murky.

You’re rolling the dice, true. But you’re not betting on a specific result. You end up with a result and try to put that in a category to score points, the better that result fits into the category, the more points you get.

Quick responses would be appreciated. These Ardents don’t look too friendly.

Id say no. On subsequent rolls in the same form, you pick a certain number of dice to reroll, playing the odds that you can find up with a certain combination.

I'd say that's closer enough to trying to office the future that the ardents are gonna take issue.

I have to agree that it's not Vorin. You're making a calculated choice based on what you hope the dice you choose to roll will turn up. Other dice games where you don't take actions based on what you think the dice will be would probably be fine.
