I like 8's idea the most it seemed the most reasonable.
The 50- ad 50+ one I'm personally allergic to it because I don't encourage dicing in castle and I keep hearing people shout these numbers I have no idea how they play these castle games but I keep hearing stories about people getting scammed from them, so it left a bad impression and if we do this then we are encouraging castle dicing and I hope we don't go towards that direction. The other reason why I don't favor the 50+ dicing is that I heard some players say it gives advantage to the dm, I'm not sure if it's true but if he gets to roll twice well maybe true then. Unless we bring a dm who wasn't at the fight and won't roll which is not realistic or practical.
I hope the o8o new dicing method gets applied, so that the haters and jealous people stop bullying players who win. I keep hearing the word "hack" and I just wonder why Lugh players don't seem to understand that CH cannot be hacked. Some players seriously started going delusional with their fever that winners hack and load and what not, the new dicing method gets everybody back to earth and makes them stop the unhealthy hallucinations. I think that not even the biggest hackers in the world can hack CH. period.
I'm personally one of the people who win at dicing, not the items that I need and like DevilDave said, when he got accused of hacking dice, he won't be winning on a silly energy harvest skull and lose on a nature's touch skull, if it was true that he hacks. Same like in my case, I play my rogue the most since my warrior retired a long time ago, for the lack of need of tanks in Lugh, If I was to hack dice, I would have won by now a rogue set, which is either Frostroot set or Bloodthorn set. I won none, while I was present at the fights where all the necklaces for those 2 sets dropped.
I'm not the only person who wins, there's many other friends who win a lot and get bullied and trolled for winning, many on other servers too where I often play.
I was asked how I win what do I do for winning. Well, I don't load dice I don't spike dice, i don't go in a corner and dice infinitely. Maybe that's how I win? I just dice when I'm asked to dice. i don't abuse dice button. Maybe lots of people in Lugh should try it some time, try not to load your dice or spike it, and you will see yourself winning, I'm pretty sure. Simply dice when you are asked to dice. It does wonders. trust me.
There's also cases where some players won a few mordris spears helms, godly rings braces, some casters won around 5 books as well. these people never get addressed as hackers, it's ridiculous. I had to buy my Mordris spear for 2 million gold, my boyriend gave me his Mordris helm, haven't won any myself except a silly focus level 180 spear.
I think the reason behind the hatred is that we live in a patriarchal society that has so much misogyny lying inside its webs, we see a successful female player on her own, not in a major clan who defends her, not with a man who fights for her, and we decide to intimidate her, bash her, corner her and humiliate her. While we let the people we favor win constantly and we dance and say super grats when they keep winning over and over. It's simply human nature. Unfortunately. There's also the age difference, i often find myself getting bashed by a teenager who doesn't understand he age difference. They see all our characters look the same so they think that I have to stoop down to the level of a teen and think like them talk like them and get my head so small into matters I don't usually think of in real life. Imagine the biggest quarrel I have to go through in real life is with my university professors about whether Gilles Deleuze or Jacques Lacan helped this century better in the post modern philosophical thinking, while on CH I have to spend my time convincing a teen that dice cannot be hacked. smh. This is a major age difference clash which many adults have to put up with on CH.

say no to dominant clans.
