Welcome! Quacks of Quedlinburg is a bag-building, press your luck board game. Players will simultaneously draw chips from their bag and place them into their cauldron, seeking to make it the furthest in order to afford chips so they can make it even further next time. But be careful: if you draw too many bombs, your potion will explode!

We just need to tread carefully because if you slip up around her as scum she notices and will tear your spine out and slap you to death with it. (I'm slightly scared of Nancy)

Nancy-scum feels like a hot knife slicing through butter. Nancy-town feels like a magnifying glass in the sun glaring down at an insect.
Suggestion: Let everyone just keep rolling as much as they want until someone says "I'd like to know what someone else is doing before deciding whether to roll." Then figure out who needs to catch up and go one by one from there. Usually everyone is just doing their own thing 90% of the time and people only start paying attention to others when they get close to exploding.
We can do that. The main reasons I was thinking that everyone could take their turns one at a time was because of the 1d6 that the player who got the furthest would get to roll, and so players wouldn't have to update their bag by themselves.
But it would definitely speed the game up. With the current ruleset, this could take multiple months. If everyone agrees, we can make this change.
I approve of this change for all rounds except round 9. There's a tactical advantage to being the last to drop out - it's a minor advantage when the bonus die is all that's at stake, but it's a huge advantage during round 9.
Also, what's the Fortune Teller event this round? Some of them can change bag composition, so definitely need to know before I start rolling.
I assume this is what I need to do? If I need to wait for Inspiratisloos, then just process this after.

Sure, I just requoted it. What’s wrong with Static?
I’m still not exactly sure how to play this. What actions can I take?

I'm not 100% sure, but I think Static shows up if the dice roll isn't "clean". I know it shows up if the post is edited, but I think it will also show up if you hit preview before posting (not accusing you of anything btw, this is for everyone).
You're going to keep drawing chips until you either decide to stop or you have over 7 bombs in your cauldron. Right now, you have 1 bomb. So just let me know if you want to stop or keep going.
You can also use your potion, which will remove the bomb you just drew from your cauldron, but if you do that, you won't be able to use your potion again until you spend 2 rubies to refill it.
So, I should probably choose to draw more chips then?

Yeah, it looks like Nancy quoted my die roll specifically. Basically, it means you didn't actually roll the die - you just copied the results I got. Static shows up when a roll is quoted or edited.
Static should not show up on preview; if you preview a die roll, it'll re-roll the die when you actually post. Example:
Original Roll String: 1d500
1 500-Sided Dice: (60) = 60
On preview, this is a 218. Let's see what it is on post.
