Or if you must use Python 2, use raw_input() instead of input().

Also, you have an off-by-one error here. randrange(6) will give you an
integer between 0 and 5, inclusive (a total of 6 possible values).
Adding 1 will then result in an integer between 1 and 6, inclusive,
but you don't have a case for a value of 6.
