I know I should read through stuff before I start clicking (and I probably will get used to it in the long run), but I like clicking. However I would like to have the options 'Re-roll' and 'Keep' instead of 'Yes' and 'No' when the client asks if I want to reroll my winnings. It's a dyslexic thing Smile

I find this one confusing as well. If I was asking this as a yes/no question, I would ask if they wanted to keep the roll, not reroll it, so I always come very close to clicking the wrong one.

Good idea Shraaaag. I looked at that pop-up many times and thought it was confusing. Maybe display the first dice-roll in red font, so it is easy to spot.

I too find it lacking. Computer users have gotten accustomed that the OS and programs ask if you really wish to do something, not when you want to keep something as it is. Therefore the question should ask if you wish to reroll, not if you want to keep the original roll.

Either change the question or better yet, do as suggested above and rename the buttons "reroll" and "keep this"

I too often clicked "yes" thinking it was to keep the 6. Reading fail I know, but damn am I nervous every time that dialogue comes up.

I concur with Shraag. Would someone like to make this a bug report?

Why have two options.

Just one button that says: Do you want to reroll winnings?

It seems to me having two options is the problem not what the options are labeled.

'Re-roll' and 'Keep' would be perfect

Erhm... How would that work exactly? Confused
Does pressing that one button mean yes or no? How are we supposed to know which one it is? And whatever choice the button stands for, how are we supposed to be able to choose the other?

I think Shraaaag is onto something. Make it simple. "Winnings roll is #" in big letters and then Keep and Re-roll as button.
