You roll 36 dice and remove the dice with one dot showing. You roll the remaining dice and remove the dice with one dot showing. You roll the remaining dice and remove the dice with one dot showing. Repeat this process until you have no dice left. (x=roll number, y=number of dice remaining).

See question 8 here.
