Cocked die

what rules does Veeky Forums use to determine if a die is cocked?

If you can't place a second die on it without moving the die or the second die falling off, its cocked.

Reroll.
No dice stacking or protractors required.
If it looks crooked, then just reroll it.

so it has to be perfectly flat?

Use dice with straight edges instead.

use concave dice, they tend to make one face stick up 'more'

If 6 is one of the top sides then it's critical hit. Otherwise it's critical fail.

just stick to coins, add up a whole bunch of heads or tails, come back when you get a cocked D2

Rolled my 100d2 dicepool, picrelated happened. What do?

Attempt to repeat feat with video camera.

>inb4 dick caught in coins

If more than 1 face can be realistically said to be on top.

And in said scenario, I usually offer the player the choice of taking the lowest or rerolling, unless one of the top faces is the crit, in which case you flip a coin to confirm the crit.

I look at the die. If I would describe the die's position as "jank," I call for a reroll. If it's some obvious shit like the die landed barely tilted against a coaster or some shit, I take whatever's on top. If the highest face is low but the die is cocked due to some garbage or mess in front of the player, I take the low roll with no reroll because you fucks need to keep your space clean, or roll in a more open area.
If the die rolls off the table, it's a reroll the first three times, and a crit-fail every time after that. Control your fucking rolling you god-damned heathen.

I've been playing for a decade and this has never happened to me.

The die is cocked if it starts multiplying after you give it a good sniff.

Gently open the vadiena. If the die's been cocked, the diemen will be broken.

You take out your cock and slap the table. If you get an erection, the die was cocked.

Everyone rolls in front of themselves. Usually on top of their personal notebook. If they can't read it themselves aka I chucked my dice across the table "It's a 1" is my reply.
It usually falls prey to my cat if it hits the floor. Hardwood = she knows the sound of it hitting and it's in her territory then.
I have dice under the fridge.
Also found stray dice on the basement floor on several occasions.

If it lands on a soft surface, the result is invalid. For example, thick carpet or upholstery. Otherwise, whatever's clearly facing up is the result.

If you've got to ask the question then it's cocked.
No time for dallying.

thats what we do in bloodbowl. if the dice lands on the edge of a piece of paper you need to reroll. no excuses ever. no discussions.

Cups nigga cups. If you cant land the cup on the table, well im sorry for ya.

>If you can't place a second die on it without moving the die or the second die falling off, its cocked.

This is what we use as well.

Roll on a hard flat surface like a table. If it falls off or lies on anything else than said flat surface (even if it's partway on a single sheet of paper), reroll it. Seems harsh, but works while all attempts at any more reasonable form of this rule resulted in regular arguments of "it's enough/not enough to count as cocked"

Are you an abnormal?

smack the table and see what side drops

If it's at -10 HP.

Doesn't chant in the morning.

Abnormies get out!
MINUSREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

We always reroll it, no matter what the result was.

If you can't determine by glancing at it what face is on top, you reroll it. If you habitually call cocked when the die is low and uncocked when the die is high, I don't play with you anymore.

If someone is using a broken random number genorator

What the fuck is this even

If the group is unable to unanimously decide on which of the visible results is the most valid, it gets rerolled. Simple.

If not fully flat on the table surface it's a reroll. Anything that fall off the table is also a reroll.

I came to post this.

>If you can't place a second die on it without moving the die or the second die falling off, its cocked.
Indeed.

If you can place another die on top of it, the roll stands, otherwise reroll

Also you rolled a 7 in that picture

Down to the Micron.

Honestly, you can't find a flat surface to roll dice on?

My friend have an awesome system

>slightly and imperceptible: re roll the dice
>totally cocked, we can't tell what he rolled but he roll it: success, what are we arguing about, gid gud.

>not rolling dice exclusively on a surface plate

I use Gamescience dice, so they don't ever land like this.

However, we use a dice tower for some games and on rare occasions a die will lean against the side of the tower. In cases like this, that one die is re-rolled after the others have been counted and removed (if applicable).

>Gamescience

Looked at their website. Are they really that good? It's just fucking dice, right?

I had it happen once. Combat suddenly halted as the god of chaos appeared and asked the wizard what the fuck he was playing at before giving him a mysterious necklace (that was really just an ordinary necklace) and pantsing the guard the wizard was fighting.

It felt appropriate when I was 16

They're pretty decent. Have had mine since the mid-90s and they have held up well. Some of the paint on the numbers have worn off over the years but that will happen with any die that gets used regularly.

As for how random they are I couldn't really say. We had originally gotten them because we had a die that was spitting out the same number more often than seemed normal. Haven't had those issues since and it has been a long time.

But yeah, Gamescience makes a nice die. I've also had no complaints with Chessex; however, I guess I drank some of the Gamescience koolaid because I like the sharper edges better and the rationale behind having them seems to make sense.

The player dies.

Not the character.

The player.

If it's not completely flat, with a little bit of wiggle room depending on whatever surface we're rolling on and how many papers are around and so on (so typically it needs to be like 95% level).

If a die is cocked, or goes off the table or something like that, reroll it and all the others you rolled at the same time.

If there is a disagreement, the DM settles it, if we're not playing something with a DM then the host settles it.

Chessex is shit user.

When it happens we will either:

-reroll ONLY the cocked die
-reroll ALL of the dice in the roll

Before we play we determine how we're going to do it. Usually we only reroll the cocked die, but with some group configurations there are people that would rather reroll all.

It's no big deal to make the accommodation. And once it is decided upon, that is the rule for that session.

Whichever face is opposite the bottom one is the result.

Not sure which face is on the bottom? It's the one that's holding the die up with more than one point of contact.

Not happy with that? Probably on the spectrum.

More than one face fits that requirement? Try rolling on a flat surface, dipshit. Use a dice tray if you have to.

Oh I really like this solution. Nice one user!

The rule is if I roll a cocked die and the result would favour me I have to re-roll. Isn't that how it works?

>what rules does Veeky Forums use to determine if a die is cocked?
This is the worst thread ever created. I mean for fuck sake, the first post answers everything "If you can't place a second die on it without moving the die or the second die falling off, its cocked."

In my group the rule is somewhere between "reroll it" and "god damn it Craig stop it with the dice tower it's not even helping anything you fuck!"

Go buy some real fucking dice. That's the rule. It's a house rule. As in....get out of my house.

how does this work?
