If we’re putting a bad number down, might as well put it in one.
We only lose two points from this, compared to a possible 50 points from Yahtzee.
I do believe that it is less than 25 times more likely that we get three ones than us getting a Yahztee, so ones it is.

I chose 4s not cause I think we should do that but because it is different and I wanted to keep 1 vote on everything.

4s seems like the worst move we could make. I prefer Yahtzee (low chance at this point) or chance (since 5s is the highest value we’re trying for anyway).

I changed my vote to Aces, since it is sort of like dumping a non-ideal hand, but only puts us down 1 overall.

I think Chance is also a playable option. However, even though a Yahtzee is unlikely, it feels bad to give up on the possibility just yet.

By the way, in the event of a tied vote, I think we should settle it in a natural way, with the roll of a die.

There are still lots of chances for Yahtzee, however improbable it may be. I like the idea of using it for aces as well since we could potentially have a higher valued bad roll to use in chance.
