Title: Is it just me , or....
Post by: Megamieuwsel on March 24, 2006, 06:18:19 PM
...does the dice-roller have a tendency to roll way below average?

Ok ; appears to be sheer coincidence so far. Never mind.

That settles it : I just had a few unlucky previous rolls.

Woot!

So that's 2 results in the 11-20 range for 10 tries.

Another try?

Let's see if my luck continues to hold.

The dice tag is [noparse][dice=X]Y[/dice][/noparse] where X = the number of dice and Y equals the size.

So - if I wanted to test this thing and see how my luck holds, I could do this:  

[dice=1]20[/dice]
[dice=1]20[/dice]
[dice=1]20[/dice]
[dice=1]20[/dice]
[dice=1]20[/dice]
[dice=1]20[/dice]
[dice=1]20[/dice]
[dice=1]20[/dice]
[dice=1]20[/dice]
[dice=1]20[/dice]

instead of ten different posts?  I think some people just want to get their post count up :P

Hm... seems it won't roll different numbers in the same post...

Post by: Guest (Deleted) on March 26, 2006, 02:57:32 AM
That's intentional. The roll is logged to prevent someone from chaning their roll by hitting the edit button. Unfortunately, the way it is logged limits the roller to one type of roll per post.

You can still do something like

Attack 1d20 + 7 [dice=1]20[/dice]
Damage 2d6 + 4 [dice=2]6[/dice]

Of course, I got sucky results, as expected, but the point was to illustrate you can do several rolls, as long as they are of a different type, in the same post.
