Awesome ... Contrats ... Judging from your location ... I assume you two know Shannon personally ... If you would ... next time you see him ... Please thank him for me ... for hosting DiceCollector.com for all these years

<< Yea ... I know this is thread jacking ... but its my thread >>

We haven't seen him an about 2 years now. We don't seem to make it into Toronto very often anymore, and when we do it is usually a drive-by at night en route to or from GenCon.

Lottery Dice

Do you know where to get these dice (see attached)? They may be called 'lottery dice' and are 10 sided, but look like a squashed d8. You do have some in your collection I believe, but it doesn't have info on where you got them or the brand or anything. Do you recall where you picked them up?

thanks

Edit: apparently I can't upload that pic again, here's a link:

Yes ... as usual ... I picked them up on ebay ... so unfortunately I dont know who manufactured them ... sorry

I can say ... that they seem to be about 30 years old ...

I would like a d7 made like the d5. I don't like the only d7 currently available on the internet, with its weird numbering style. :\

I just got a couple of d16, and they roll surprisingly well! I also got a d3 on d6 die, that should prove useful in my games.

I agree ... the numbers on the end caps ... but pips on the edges are cumbersome

I will try to whip up a prototype of what we are looking for in the next few days

Personally ... I am partial to either my design or that of Alexander Simkin / Jason Huff
