[QUOTE="Vaslov, post: 7585386, member: 37953"] The last two games my dice have found a new low. Generally in the groups I game with I have a reputation for rolling poorly more often than typical. Posting this as misery loves company and I'd like to hear some others tales of their dice abandoning them. In last weeks game we were playing D&D. Of the 4 combat encounters for the evening I rolled an initiative of 1 three times. The actual combat was not much better, but luckily I could hit what we fought most of the time with a 2 or better. Many 6, 7 and 8's were rolled. I lost count. I do recall rolling 20's twice for attacks over the night which helped to balance out the evening. Overall a typical night for me. We have the lucky problem in my group of having too many GMs and were switchnig over to our LexOccultum game this week. For those not familiar with the system to sort out most skill rolls you roll a d20 with low rolls being better than high. I had been joking with the GM that this is our game as she shares too tends to roll pretty low. I only had 4 occasions to roll a d20 this week. First roll was a 10. As it was with one of my better skills on a fairly easy skill check it passed. Woo! I then proceed to roll 3 20's in a row completely failing and complicating things endlessly. So this morning I sit here next to a hammer and the shattered remains of those d20s sipping on a morning beverage. Those dice shall betray me no more. [/QUOTE]
