I stopped counting after 100. That was fifteen years ago. I have no idea anymore (while cleaning the basement last month I discovered a box of a couple hundred I had forgotten about)

And yes I am only counting my own, not the store's. :p

Untold hundreds.:)

Had to custom make a vinyl bag just to fit 'em all, with room to spare. Buuuuut I don't think I need anymore.:cool:
 

I once played a powerful-but-wonderfully-well-thought-out Saiyan conversion for Rifts.. unfortunately, fully charged at 15th level, putting all his power into one blast, I was looking at something like 40000d6 damage. GM wanted me to roll 'em all at once. Afterwards, we made a nice mosaic pattern for the bathroom walls and most of the floors...

;)

Ok, closest I actually got was calculating that, in such a hypothetical situation, one would need enough dice to fill a small garage or something like that.. I only own 40 dice (a few sets, and some extra). :(

--Impeesa--
 

I have somewhere in the range of 50 myself, but I just wanted to share this tidbit:

A player I got into the gaming world ten years ago has only 1 set of 8 dice for dnd and 12 10-siders for white wolf--these are the only dice he's ever purchased, which was 10 frickin' years ago !!!

I just have to know: What does one do with a thousand dice?

I'd assume they play DBZ (with the 500 die death touch if the rumors are true) :)


Edit: Damn someone beat me to it. :)

I probably have in the 2000-3000 range, and I have been gaming for 21 years. I have tons of dice nobody has every heard of, including ones that look like puke, d5's, d7's, d16's, d30's, d50's, d100's, and even a set for d10,000! Also alignment dice, critical hit dice, hit location dice, fumble dice, noise dice, wandering monster dice, a round d6 with a ball bearing in it, etc.
 



I have 8 sets, but tend to only use one during a game (yes, different characters use different colors & the purple glittery ones are for when I'm the GC).

My husband has a separate dice collection of his own & each of our kids has dice... so the household total is up there, but we keep them seqestered to avoid mingling luck and those millions of annoying tiny dice.;)
 

Like many people...

I used to have many...... At one time I had about 500 of those tiny 5 millimeter 6 siders... they were great for armies! but, like many things in my life... misplaced! lol

I am down to a solid 6 sets of dice now... but two of them are expensive... Crystal Caste hemetite and malachite...
