There are variations that can be added, I believe, like allowing a Dex check to help influence the outcome. I'm trying to design a House of Games and am even thinking about having 'loaded dice' in the game that could be used during this game. I'm not sure how to fully implement them, though.

If you use it or modify it, I would like to know. Actual credit isn't necessary as it isn't that original of a script.
