In World of Warcraft, there are text-based commands that can be executed in the chat interface, similar to command line tools in a computer terminal. The "/played" command, for example, will give you the total time spent playing on a specific character.
One such command is "/roll". When this command is followed by a number (n), it generates a random number between 1 and n. This is akin to a digital dice roll, with the number specifying the number of sides on the dice.
For instance, you might decide to start a game with another player where you both start with a number of 500 and wager 100 gold. You would initiate the game by typing "/roll 500" into the chat, which would then generate a random number between 1 and 500. Let's imagine it gives you 137.
The other player then uses this number as the argument for their roll. So they would type "/roll 137". This process continues with each player using the result of the previous roll as the new argument for the "/roll" command.
The game ends when a player rolls a 1, and that player is deemed the loser.
