mousepick

I am creating a dice game and I am using the mousepick example from DungeonTrigger (well I did tweak it a bit) to select which dice was clicked to get the face value. That all works. For some reason I cannot get the machine to count the number of clicks and force a reroll before continuing. I am willing to email a RAR of models and code but I don't think my posting my (NOT CLEANED UP) code here would do the trick. Naytheless:
