Mouse Guard (Burning Wheel) Dice?

Just found this Roll 20 thing. It's pretty cool Tested out with some friends I like it. I love the macro function. But... Can i set up a Pass/fail system with Mouse Guard (Burning Wheel) dice? You roll XD6 many dice 1,2,3: failure 4,5: Pass 6: Allows you to roll another D6
I think that if you type "/roll Xd6!>4", with the appropriate number in place of "X", it will probably have the effect you need. But maybe you need a double exclamation mark. Check the die-rolling reference. If the worst comes to the worst, you could type "/r Xd6", count the passes yourself, and type another command to re-roll any sixes.
I tested it. "/r Xd6!>4" does what you ask for.
And with the new-and-improved macro syntax I think you can define a macro "d6!>4" and call it "m" (for "mouse"), then type /r X#m (with whatever "X" you need) and it ought to work.
Whoa? And with the new-and-improved macro syntax I think you can define a macro "d6!>4" and call it "m" (for "mouse"), then type /r X#m (with whatever "X" you need) and it ought to work. Whoa what? That last message threw me for a loop. What does ! do? and there's a die-rolling reference? Please tell me were?! *zips off to find it*
Whoa what? That last message threw me for a loop. What does ! do? Click on the cogwheel icon at the top of the chat pane in Roll20. The word "Macro" will appear at the top of the column below that row of icons. Click the "+ Add" button beside it. A dialogue box will open. Put a name into the "name" box in that. I used "m" so that it would be short. In the "Command(s) box, type "d6!>4". Click "Save changes". Now click the icon of two overlapping speech balloons of the far left of the row of icons at the top of the pane, to go back to the chat window. Now whenever I type "#m" into the chat input, the program substitutes "d6!>4" in its place before interpreting. So if I type "/r 6#m" I get a result like this: Brett (GM):d6!>4 rolling 6d6!>4 (6+1+5+4+3+2+2)>4 = 3 Successes and there's a die-rolling reference?
