This is actually a brilliant idea. Set up the spreadsheet so that it can be farmed out to the individuals. All they have to do is provide inputs at a certain spot, put in their values, “roll the dice” and send back the calculations. Honor system should prevail, in that if people don’t like their roll, the honor system is that they shouldn’t re-roll until a favorable result pops up… OR… build re-rolls into the game, and people can “buy” one for a price.
This means not just 1 big spreadsheet for the whole game like the last time. It means, probably, lots of smaller spreadsheets to keep them from getting too confusing. And it means the spreadsheet designers need to cast a keen eye towards making the inputs and outputs easy to understand.
Or your partner idea - nobody rolls for themselves… or with the partners, the partner can check in with the user, and the user can decide if they want to use their free roll or not…
