So mostly average to above average. Nowhere near Lee "Dice" Hadley's awful luck. I was rather displeased to find my dice spread out on the table, and floor and nary a d10 to be had. I'll have to turn the place over to locate them.
Well as Leonard Courtney, 1st Baron Courtney of Penwith, said. Lies, damn lies, and statistics.

And some random pictures of dice:
It has occurred to me that I am behind on my schedule to play out this nest game with figures. Time to get cracking.
I think everyone but Lee is hitting about average. The man must be cursed!
ReplyDeleteHi Anne, his rolls do appear to be shockingly low.
DeleteLee has an invisible imp that follows him around, souring milk and spoiling meat. It also knackers his dice.
ReplyDeleteHi WP, perhaps a dice exorcism is in order.
DeleteOf course, 10 throws isn't a big enough sample to be significant - but I expect you know that!
ReplyDeleteHi Hugh, yes somewhere buried in my subconscious are formulas for variance and statistical significance. I think I have purposely blocked that portion of my brain to forget the hours I spent on homework and exams to only barely pass.
DeleteNice one Sean, I don't think anyone will beat Lee's dreadful throws!!
ReplyDeleteUnless they cheat or they are actually BigLee but who would want that?
DeleteHi Ray, I tried.
DeleteI'm glad my curse has managed to ammuse so many people...
ReplyDeleteI like the 'grognard' picture... I have an old D&D dice set at home that pre-dates the birth of my 17 year old daughter by several years! Come to think of it, they probably pre date my 21 year marriage as well. I think the title Grognard should definitely apply if you have a longer relationship with a set of dice than with your wife and kids!
Sorry Lee, just a bit of fun, I blame Ray. I have the opposite problem when I play with my son. He is unbelievably lucky and if you tell him he needs to roll a six, he rolls it.
DeleteI suspect many of us have dice that predate our relationships.
Love that last picture the most! :-D

Hi Peter, thanks. Perhaps if I had gamed with even one female I'd still be playing Dungeons & Dragons.
