What is the best/easiest/most fun die to roll of the standard 6?

Do you dislike rolling a particular die?

Quasqueton

Best: I get consistently high results with my d8. It also doubles as a good projectile ;)

Easiest: d6.....just has good roling qualities

most fun: d20......with all the cool conections rolling a nat 20 has, it is easily the most fun.

Dislike: the d10....always roll low (it might know I don't like it's shape :uhoh: )
 

Strangely, I like the humble old d6. I couldn't tell you why, though.

I dislike d4s. Again, I couldn't tell you why!
 


d4's are sometimes hard to pick up...being all pointy and stuff.

My faves are my old Gamescience High Impact Gem Clear d20s. Sharp edges, pretty colors, good memories.

That's right, those make for an especially bad roll, except on the rim :D.

For best-rolling, I'll go for the d20, if you have enough space ;).

Edit: The one I don't like: the caltrop (d4).

I picked up these funky 12-sided dice at Gen Con. They've got 12 sides, but they serve as d4's (they're pipped and very cool).

((I don't think I did a very good job of explaining those dice... if you're totally confused, let me know and I'll post a picture)).

I personally really enjoy rolling my favorite pink dice. They're Chessex, pink, with white numbering. My pink d20 loves me and rolls really well. :) I've recently picked up two more sets just like 'em - one in blue and one in green.

The thing I *hate* is a d20 (or any die) with really rounded edges! I hate it when my dice roll forever or just keep on rolling off the table! (but that's also why I purchased a dice box www.diceboxes.com)
 



d12 its the biggest and baddest most random dice (even though the d20 is actually bigger the d12 is bigger in spirit). Then I like d20s second best 'cause they're the most important.
