I remember rolling my (RPG) dice collection trying to get the highest number on each to see how long it would take. Roll whole collection, remove maximums, repeat. I also did a variation where I'd roll everything, and take the lower dice and add them to the higher dice. Anything that maxed out was out of the reroll. Repeat. It was great as a kid. You could watch movies or TV while doing it too.
Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/

Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
She needs more d24s. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd really, don't we all have more dice than we need?
ReplyDeleteI'm not even sure where she got it, Jen Brinkman!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter thinks all my dice ARE her dice. I'm starting to find things all over the house...
ReplyDeleteShe learned it from watching you, Dad!
ReplyDeleteExcellent use of her time. Always important to perform a regular dice inventory.

ReplyDeleteNerd.
ReplyDeletelooks like you need to get her a d30. Also, she almost has enough six sided dice to play warhammer 40k.
ReplyDeleteNot quite though.
ReplyDeleteWhat are the "non-#" dice?
ReplyDeleteEmoticon dice, weather dice, playing card dice, animal dice...anything with pictures instead of numbers.
ReplyDeleteGotcha. Wondered for a min if you'd given her a bunch of blank dice. That'd be mean...and funny.
