Several readers have written in to ask that same question. They reason that while Precision-Shooting may work in making the 7 appear less often, they doubt that other numbers could intentionally be made to appear more often. Well if you make the 7 appear less often, it just makes sense that other numbers will roll MORE often. What really happens is that the appearance of certain numbers within the normal 36-roll distribution chart are re-jigged, so that the 7 is no longer the dominant number. That is the goal of Precision-Shooting. The by-product of less 7 s is the emergence of new dominant numbers. Due to different throwing methods, various dice-sets and outcomes, we all develop our very own unique 36-roll distribution chart. The results are what we call Signature Numbers. Despite individual throwing methods, we tend to see some dominant number-trends that show up with the most common dice-sets.
