While the song says that there are six geese a-laying, for the purpose of the game there are actually SIXTY....
This dice game is going to be a little hunting game. A pack of sixty geese have settled near the edge of the plains, and the person [or perhaps persons] who can catch the most will win a prize in the form of one of our grams!
In order to participate, all you have to do is generate a random number between 1 and 60, and write a little post of your kin [or a made up kin if you don't have one!] chasing after fat geese. The first person to roll each number will catch that numbered goose, and will get one point toward winning the competition. Successive rolls for that goose will not be counted.
It will end when every number has been rolled once! The person with the most points will be the winner, but additional winners will be rolled via raffle, where each point is a ticket, so even getting 1 point might be worth your time...
The only real rule is that you cannot post twice in a row. You must wait for another person to roll before rolling again.
THE GEESE: I will put names into each number as the goose is caught, leaving unclaimed geese blank for you to see what numbers are left!

He had his gryphon at his side, at last; Faster felt like all was right now now. It came just in time, too (the end of its training, he meant); the flocks of geese rose around them like clouds and someone called start. It seemed so far away
They were off, and with Might calling politely with wings raised, he gave chase. It was pride he felt, Faster told himself, and excitement at the hunt, returned to him again for thrill rather than for training a snarky catbird.

Glossbones was simultaneously in awe and terrified when a certain mare showed up. She really knew how to make her presence known. And lately she had been popping out of daisies, buzzing around with fire in her eyes. And hence he was chasing fat geese per her requests.

There was one, and Faster grinned as he snapped its neck almost mercifully; it felt, strangely enough, thrilling. Might was already swerving to the left, off in chase of the next. He hoped they'd make a good team; the geese looked plump and delicious.

Light in the Ocean laughed at the way the fat geese wobbled as they try to run away from him. He leapt forward and landed himself between the running geese, scaring them even more.

Above Heartache couldn't believe it. Now here she was, chasing geese with her firefly and fennec. How could this have started? Oh well, time to have fun! She raced after them as best she could

Light tried to count the numbers but they were flapping their wings so wildly that he kept on losing count. He cornered one as least is what he thought, and that one sprung into the pond.

Geese! A whole flock of them! Timeworn and Little Hunter inched around the edge of the flock, waiting for their chance...and pounced!

Catching live geese was kind of a weird game, but Wherewithaldidn't exactly have much better to do with his time, so here he was, and there were the geese. As soon as the start was called, he sprung out of his tense, quivering crouch into a loping run at the nearest goose.

Another! This one did not go down so easily, and Faster had to stomp it with his hoof after Might brought it to the ground with a screech and a talon to the wing, swift and sharp. The crunch was savagely satisfying. Someone would eat well when all this carnage was over.
Might gave chase to the next one, signaling near imperceptibly to his gryphon as to where to go. That goose looked promising: it wobbled in its flight pattern.

Glossbones started to think about it. He was in no shape a hunter which is why Snailshell and family and the specific Mare always brought him and his sister food. Why was he hunting geese again? Perhaps if he had some honey things would go better
