4. Things to Note Cocked Dice If, after the dice are thrown, they do not lie flat on the mat or designated surface (see top left), or they leave the mat, then the throw is deemed to be 'cocked' and the throw must be retaken.
General Etiquette Once the player has completed the throw(s) for the round, and communicated their score to the Scorer, then the player should put the dice back in the cup and pass the cup to the next player (moving in a clockwise direction - see top right).
5. What happens at ‘Half Time’ (6 rounds played)
6. What happens at ‘Full Time’ (12 rounds played)
At 'Half Time' the scorer tallies the Sub-Totals and announces the scores at that point for each player and what row they have left to score. The round is then played and the scorer announces the scores.
At ‘Full Time' the scorer will add the score of the final round (circled) to the Sub-Totals to compute the Total Score for each Player.
