In which Ian has yet more fucking dice.

[Nai_Calus]

I CAN STOP WHENEVER I WANT.

...Which is why I have more on the way, naturally.

Yes, soon I will have even fucking more than this. I really must find some place to keep them all, besides the current small paper sack. A larger paper sack, perhaps. Or a truck.

The ever-hated caltrops.

http://www.iankunx.net/d6s.jpg

Boring fucking d6s. I was pissed at all the ones I had, so I bought new ones.

http://www.iankunx.net/d8sd10s.jpg

d8s and d10s, which are together because I forgot to seperate them. I have somehow managed to have four identical purple and gold d10s. I'm not entirely certain how this happened, as I should only have three of them. Perhaps they've taken to breeding behind my back.

d12s. The one with zodiac signs is a recent resurface from my missing original collection. Sadly the one with planetary symbols has not resurfaced yet.

http://www.iankunx.net/d20s.jpg

d20s. The red and black speckled one is another resurface.

Only the hexidecimal d16 is new. I love that die. It's like the ultimate in geekiness. The rest are my old oddly-sided dice, now with their numbers coloured in. Crayons ftw.

The latest crop. You can see the black d24 that also recently resurfaced. The individual shot didn't come out and I was too lazy to take a new one.

The whole huge fucking pile.

Current totals of all present dice:

d3: 1
d4: 10
d5: 1
d6: 23
d7: 2
d8: 7
d10: 32
d12: 10
d14: 1
d16: 2
d20: 22
d24: 2
d30: 1
Total number of dice: 114

Yeah I might have a bit of a problem.

[Nai_Calus]

Wow I'm a dumbass, it's 121. >_>;

I forgot to count the plushie dice, lawl. So add 1d4, 1d6, 1d8, 2d10, 1d12 and 1d20 to the counts above. >_>

[HAYABUSA-FMW-]

Dolls Dice and something else with a D, or even not a D, and we got a title of your new self help celebrity auto-bio-shamockery book.

I like the Turquoise water marbley one out of the "d20s" ;ohya

[SpikeOtacon]

It's a thing of beauty.

[Tact]

Okay, I have to ask this.

What made you start collecting dice?

[AlexCraig]

Man, would you like to stop by sometime and play D&D with my family and friends? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

[Nai_Calus]

I'm not entirely sure why I started collecting them. I just like them. They're fun.

Alex: lol, yeah, really, I've got enough dice to make 7 full sets, with 4 d6 to each, and have a shitload left over. >_>;

Then again if anyone else touched them it would ruin them and they'd never roll anything but 1s again. >_>;

[AlexCraig]

True. The Achilles Heel of gamer dice (my poor pewter d20 T_T).

Just perform a cleansing ritual and you'll be fine. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

[Ketchup345]

Hows are the d24 and d30? Never heard/seen anything about them before, that I remember at least.

And no d100?

[TalHex]

ketchup there is a reason they don't make d100s... they would be the size of a bowling ball at minimum

[TalHex]

holy crap! they exist!

[Nai_Calus]

d100 is boring, it's a fucking golfball.

d24 doesn't look like it'd be fair but it apparetly is. d30 looks more like you'd expect a die to look and works nicely. *shrug* I like them because they're odd sizes. Same with d3, d5, d7, d14, d16, heh.

I want a d....34 I think it was? Either 32 or 34.

[Skuda]

In all seriousness.... Q-tips?

[AlexCraig]

I've seen d4, 6, 8, 10, 10%, 12, 20, 30, and 100. But some of these others I've never seen.

[Nai_Calus]

For cleaning my ears, of course. Also visible are my DS and the corner of a stack of books

[Skuda]

old school DS are better ;O

Warning: The following link very nearly constitutes porn if you're a dice lover:

I lust after most of the dice on that page. >_>

[Sord]

you reminded me of my long lost d100 ;-;
