My point was that I think you have misunderstood the purpose of "set
automatic roll" :-)

Automatic roll can be used both with and without cube use. It's purpose
is to automatically roll the dice if it's a human's turn and 

          * they haven't already rolled;
           * they haven't just been doubled;
           * somebody hasn't just resigned;
           * at least one of the following:
             - cube use is disabled;
             - it's the Crawford game;
             - the cube is dead. */

With automatic roll disabled you'll have to manually roll everytime it's
your turn -- independent of cube use!
