[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8492997, member: 7030563"] The worst 20 I rolled was in 1E when I needed to roll UNDER an ability score for an ability check. Just awful to waste it like that. I have hundreds of dice, including 30 or so 20-sided. It can be difficult to figure out when is the right time to retire a dice because the 20s have all been used up. You always find yourself saying - this dice was strong, is it really getting old or does it have some spunk left in it? Then the worst is you lose track of it and you mix it back in with the other dice by accident, and now you are unsure which of your 5 yellow 20-sided dice is the one that is worn out. Truthfully they should come with an odometer, so you can see how many rolls it has done and no when it is time to trade it in. This would help when a friend tires to loan you his dice, you could immediately tell if he was being genuine or trying to sell you a worn out mule with little life left. [/QUOTE]
