My wife: ‘You really have a dice problem’
Me: ‘I’m so glad you see it too’
My wife: ‘I mean… It’s really hard to miss!!’
Me: ‘Exactly! I don’t have any icy blue translucent dice yet but I’m playing a frost mage!’
My wife: ‘that’s not at all what I meant.’
Me: ‘hey if I order all translucent dice in a set I save shipping.’
My wife: ‘I’m leaving you.’
Me: ‘But not the campaign are you? Cus I ordered some bear themed dice for your bear barbarian.’
My wife: ‘Awwww.’
Now we both have a dice problem.
It me and fountain pens
Fountain pens and fountain pen ink. Just so many little bottles.
Few of my inks
There’s no such thing as too many dice
The ultimate dream is to have enough dice to swim in them like Scrooge McDuck.
As someone who’s had a sharp edge D4 draw blood this does not sound like fun.
Good job, you made me laugh out loud in the middle of a department store
I don’t even play in-person anymore and I still think about more dice
I remember the first time I was invited to play D&D. I bought dice, and it was just as much to buy a half dozen sets as it was to buy one set. So I bought the extras, and asked if anyone else needed some my first session. And everyone else pulls out boxes of various shapes full of dice and says “Nah, we’re good”.
Apparently a half dozen sets of dice is a starter pack.
I used to think I was low maintenance with dice, until I needed to buy emergency dice to run a game. The store didn’t have the regular Chessex ones, but I’m not a brand loyalist, so I grabbed whatever.
The numbers weren’t laid out properly. You know how opposite sides (apart from the d4, obviously) sum up to one more than the die size? I.e., opposite sides on a d6 add up to 7, and opposite sides of a d20 will add up to 21. They didn’t do that. Bugged the hell out of me, and I still consider them cursed.
So yeah. Even though I’m not as particular about my dice as most players, but there are some dice I find unsettling and will not play with. :P
