What is 10,000?
1.
A dice game using 6 dice. Can be played by 2-20 or more people. The object is to reach 10,000 points. You roll all 6 dice initially, and use the following scoring system to add the points. You can keep rolling the remaining dice, as long as you get either 3 of a kind, a 5 or a 1. When you either choose to stay, your points are added and it becomes the next players turn.If you don't roll any 1's or 5's, you don't get any points that round, and it becomes the next players turn. After a player reaches 10,000, everyone gets one "turn" to catch him, and pass him.
Scoring:
5=50
1=100
3 of a kind=the face value of one die x 100 (except that 3 1's are worth 1000)
4 of a kind=the previous sum x 2 (example, 3 sixes=600, 4 sixes=1200)
5 of a kind=the previous sum doubled (example, 4 sixes=1200, 5 sixes=2400)
6 of a kind=the previous sum doubled (example, 5 sixes=2400, 6 sixes=4800)
1-2-3-4-5-6 in one roll=1500
1-2-3-4-5 or 2-3-4-5-6 in one roll=500
6 ones at once is automatic win (instead of being worth 8000)
