This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

My Gamescience dice are shit.

It is what it is.  Since art is subjective to me, it did not make a difference because I did not get it for that purpose...

Give me a break.  (Free translation for you: fuck off.  I'm not into dictionary wars.)
The problem is not that power corrupts, but that the corruptible are irresistibly drawn to the pursuit of power. Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito.

What purpose *did* you get it for?

EDIT:  Never mind.  I just re-read your post where you said you bought it so the game store owner could sleep better at night.  Quite the humanitarian gesture, I'd say.

Despite my dislike for that screen, I could see it working pretty well for a convention setting: attracting attention, conversation, and even having the players responsible for reading off dice results generating some energy around the table.

BINGO!!!   I feel that presentation is extremely important and presenting large and unusual things at a convention will attract people to the game.  The two dice towers that comprise this DM's Screen is kinda neat but the sale's price of 150.00 will scorch peoples wallet....LOL

Or you can, y'know, use a normal plastic cup.

Could we maybe not post enormous fucking images that break the thread formatting?

This forum doesn't auto shrink images like newer vB does, and for those of us on mobile devices the effect of images like that is to make the thread almost unreadable.

So you enjoy being killed by Player Characters in need of a quick cash fix, eh?

Nope. If I am to be killed as a commoner, I prefer to be killed by a housecat.

Such lowly ambitions. Though I guess right now I should exercise more, because I have a rather bad modifier to Sudden Heart Attack table.
