(3 player)

1st round:A,B,C

2nd:B,C,A

3rd:C,A,B

(4)

1st:A,B,C,D

2nd:C,D,B,A

3rd:B,A,D,C

4th:D,C,A,B

(5)

1st: ABCDE

2nd: DECBA

3rd: BACED

4th:EDCAB

(6)

1st:ABCDEF

2nd:EFDCBA

3rd:BACDFE

4th:FEDCAB

-----------------------

Summurry:

The letters are players and the order they go in. After this sequence, they restart the sequence. To anyone with poor memory(I'm not mocking anyone) start with the turn of the dice. then turn the order right around(Well you can't let anyone go twice in a row.) then let the second last person go first and the last go second.

Interesting variation. But i am not sure if it is that easy to use. Probably easier in a computer game that takes care of it. But is it really necessary. The current turn order seems to be good enough and fair.

Your system is said to be fair too, but makes planning very difficult by the 6th round!

I get what you're going for, but I'm not sure that would be fair at all times.

For instance there is a sequence of 2 rounds that go: A, B, C - then B, C, A

Both "B' and "C" get to move twice before "A" gets his second round. Seems a quick alliance between "B" and "C" could put "A" in a predicament from which he may never recover.

This sounds pretty cool, seems like a fair and balanced way to play and changes up the turn order so the person going last doesn't have a huge disadvantage. I may have to give this one a try as well. Thanks.

To dan: the rows are rounds and the brackets are no of players.

To Unhinged:But if C and A have an alliance it'll put B in a predicament...still alliances that stick will probably win.

To Sam: Oops, my mistake, I get it now. Though I think Unhinged has a good point.

Of course. In conjuction with Quite Fair Dice&Cards and Frozen allies, the first to make an alliance wins.

Sam, if you already know that the first to make an alliance will win, do you think this is fair?

Strategy tells me to get faster reaction time. Also people with 2 alliances cannot win when battling experienced plyers because frozen allies forbids him to attack.
My point is i think it is "quite" fair.
