I think he just saw someone use the 123123 method and misinterpretted it to mean you divide the result by two. He had it right, since in the 123123 method, 4=1, 5=2, and 6=3. Like I said, he just couldn't explain himself properly, but the method is sound.Really, what this boils down to is that the players wanted to use the 112233 method, since that would yield a better result on a roll of a 5, but by using the 123123 method, which is perfectly legitimate, the result would be lower on a 5, which equals a 2. Either method works, but really, I think it just boils down to someone getting upset because one method yields a better result, in that instance, than the other.No matter which way you cut it, he was correct in his ruling of a 5 on a d3. If a 4 had been rolled and he ruled it a 2, then he would have been wrong, but he still wasn't wrong about the 5.</blockquote>
