║▒▒▒▒▒ Introduction ▒▒▒▒▒║
╚════════════════════════╝
Meters is a challenging and addictive game of luck. You are shown a
board of meters numbered 2-12. 4 dice are rolled and you are to place
the dice into 2 pairs, the total of each pair corresponding to a meter.
A marker is placed at the bottom of the meter when you total a pair.
The meters are different heights to account for the probability of the
dice, 2 and 12 being uncommon rolls, and 7 being the most common. You
may only start to push up 5 meters (out of the 11) and you must get 3 to
the top to collect any points.
