Not questions about rules, per se, since I'm pretty sure the answer isn't in there.  More a question of how people play.  Both of these situations have come up in actual play.

* Can you say you are rolling down a 1, in order to ally with a conflict on the other side?  (example: six on one side, one on the other side, I want to ally with the six side so I can stake debt and spit off my own side from it.)  (I think this is allowable)

* Can I say I am rolling for a side and then not actually accept a better number, or accept a worse number, and still be considered allied with that side?  (example: I want to roll up one side, but I also want to react so I can get two debt, not just one.  My first roll is a six, or a number lower than the first number.  To react, I either have to reject the six, or accept the lower number.)  (I think you can do it, but I think you won't actually be allied if you accept a worse value or refuse to accept a better value.  I have to choose between Alliance and the extra debt, I can't have both).

You can only react to a roll if you accept it.

Ah, of course...skip that bit about the 6 and concentrate on the accept the lower number to react.  DOH!
