Dice Game using bB

When I get tired of working on GoSub 2, I'll be making another alternate game. It'll be a dice game; apparently most commonly called Dice 10000 or 6-Dice. The playfield will represent the pips of the die, and the score will keep track of the score. The game has many different names (I learned it as Zilch), and here's a list of them:

-Zilch

-Foo

-Boxcar

-Crapout

-6-Dice

-10,000 Die

-Die 10,000

I don't think I'll be calling the game Crapout, though. I'll be using the variation of not being able to continue the other player's turn, as that'll be easier to program (plus, also, it's the way I learned it.) So, what I want to know is, have you heard of this game before, and if so, under what name?
