 FACT: In the game of Pirate Dice, a 1 is not wild. When Davy Jones  looks under his cup at his dice, he has four 5s, and he bids seven  5s. Will looks under his cup at his dice, and he has three 5s and  a 1, so he bids eight 5s. Davy Jones then laughs and says "Welcome  to the Crew". Then when Bootstrap bids twelve 5s and looses, he  says to Will, "I couldnt let you loose". Will wouldve lost because  there were, in fact, seven 5s on the board..seven physical 5s and  a 1, which is, as stated before, not wild, making it seven 5s.
