Radikalskippy's Random Banter #85 of lost ideas and where to find them...

[FdL]

I feel I should note that today was a critical day in my nerdness. Today I bought my first set of dice. They are a lovely and simple, with a black base and white imprint. May they bring me many nat-20's and similar good rolls.

Congratulations! ^^

I'm kinda a newbie gamer too, I think it was only last year I bought a set of dice. Now I have 3 d20s.

I like dice, I'd buy thousands of them.

@Amotis: What's that? It sounds nice, but I don't recognize it.

[Hell Puppi]

I have so many dice...*feels nerdy*

I even have a set from werewolf: the forsaken that I've never used. I got them for the cool dice bag with a wolf skull on it.

RIP clear pretty dice: got melted in a fire.

RIP purple sparkly dice: Got thrown by the GM and was never seen again...

Nahhh, dice are cool, gaming is cool, and so are you ^^ Be a proud puppi!

They do that. They have a tendency for suicide and escaping from humans. They hide in cracks in the floor and under heavy furniture. For years.

One of the guys we play with (he's the master sometimes) has a cursed dice on display. It's white with black numbers, and it's been ostracized because it performed poorly. We're not allowed to let it touch other dice, because it would spread the curse.

I played with it one day though. I don't know if it was that bad. But once I got my set I didn't touch it anymore. Just in case.

Well I'm not in any games right now, and I just borrowed from my friends when I did play last year, but I figured they could be useful and that it was time to take the plunge. I've wanted to use them at times when playing in the Town. I don't trust the computer dice rollers.

Thanks for the congrats. ^^ I imagine that more are in my future. Must stock up on d6's too.

[Penguinizer]

Meh, I only got a tin of d6's. I mainly play pbp so I pretty much don't need that many dice. Meh, Finally, a good nights sleep :D

[FdL]

Thanks for the congrats. ^^ I imagine that more are in my future. Must stock up on d6's too.

Oh, you're right. One never has enough d6. I bought a transparent blue one with numbers. I should get a couple more of those.

[Penguinizer]

I got normal d6. Red or Black with white dots.

[Xykon_Fan]

I think I have around 7-8 sets...though one particular set that's kind of a cool, sparkly, half-opaque lost its d12 within a week of me buying it. I'm still trying to find a replacement. (I don't visit stores a lot though)

I love my dice. They perform average for me, just like every other dice I've played with. Maybe soon I'll take pictures of them for you guys...

[Vonriel]

Hehe, there's nothing like listening to 10+ d6's hit the table.

You know, I used to have a dice set.. I wonder where.. Ahh, right, I left it at the house of my old group once, and it got incorporated into the DM's dice pool.

[phoenixineohp]

Our DM used a zip lock freezer bag for all of his and we still ran low/out. Something about fire balls taking several to roll.

Now I just have to knit up that dice bag that had a thread a while back. Then they will be my new precious. We's loves our precious.

[Death, your friend the Reaper]

Life is the set up and Death's the punchline line.

You can quote me now. ^^

Hey, that's gotta be worth like 20 years, huh? Chalk it up to my account ;)

Well, I suppose I could see to this.

*Turns hourglass back 4 times*

On dice I once brought one D20, but it has weird sides, so unfortunately it never seems to land on a 20 (darn thing, I wanted it to be in my favour.) as such I tend to die, which in Death's game is normally the aim, but not as good for you playing D&D (although I am not sure it was real D&D, we didn't dress up or anything)

[Vonriel]

That particular group was held in one person's house, and he just kept all these dice in several compartmented bins. So, whenever anyone was DMing, they were given access to probably a hundred+ dice.

[The Great Skenardo]

Anyone ever get the urge to have Scrooge-MacDuck-level absurd quantities of something? You know, enough of some small not-too-valuable thing that you could be happy filling a gigantic pool with them and then diving in?

Hint: it doesn't work so well for walnut pudding.

[InaVegt]

I'm collecting pennies, single cents, any type of coin as long as it's worth the least possible of that currency, I believe I'm nearing the €5,- in total worth.

[Hoggy]

Hehe, there's nothing like listening to 10+ d6's hit the table.

I always presumed 9+ d6's and one d8 would be fairly similar.

have you got a GBP penny?

You should add Australian 1 and 2 cent pieces to your collection. We no longer make them, 5 cent pieces are the smallest still in production.

Also, I saw the car with the 007-GEZ numberplate again.

I have a 1 cent piece, I still need the five cent piece though (And the two cent piece will not be considered)

@AE: I have an english penny, if that's what you mean.

Well, here is some info on the coins of Australia. There were two different backs to the 1 cent piece, and are three different backs to the 5 cent piece.

we got coins of 0,01 value here, but, as far as i know, they only serve as donation to supermarkets, so they can sponsor stuff, and take all the credit.

the new schedules of my next college term have been published, hence the grumpy mood.

[Penguinizer]

Meh, I'm considering getting the DM guide tomorrow. Should I?

If not, I can surely find other use for the money :P

[Archonic Energy]

@AE: I have an english penny, if that's what you mean.

then i shall keep my penny and with it it's good luck.

i wonder if any non English, United Kingdom residents are gonna take issue with you calling it an "English penny"

[Penguinizer]

Meh, I probably won't get the Dm guide...

I will be saving for some Airsoft stuff. One thing I am considering is selling my old AEG. I should get aroun 200 for it with the extra magazine. With that and some of my own money I'm pretty sure I should be able to get a CO2 powered and possibly something on top of that.

[Eldpollard]

I can now forum again. Instead of fixing my laptop instead I have duct taped a USB one on top of my laptop. It looks rather unorthodox I will admit but I can type again. Huzzahs all round.

[InaVegt]

Is it a problem when one normally can eat more than 15 of a specific industrially made type of pancake and now has trouble eating 5?

[Madmal]

I could be considered as a problem, but still, eating 15 pancakes? whoa...i dunno how much is that...

but still, if someone i know personally, suddenly started eating a third of what she/he/it normally eats; i'd be worried.

Why Gezina, you have a similar case happening?

[zombie chick]

hello eldpollard, nice to see you again, sorry you couldnt make the meetup but ther eis always next time.

duct tape, can mend practically anything

Well, I normally can easily eat 15 of them, and now I'm nauseated after having eaten 5.

[Sean92k]

Pimp my ride busts that myth

[Madmal]

well, maybe you're worried about something, or feeling anxious...

...or your digestive system may be "tired" of all those pancakes... i consider 15 to be a big number in relation to food... and i've been marked as a devourer at times...
