Impressive custom dice

July 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

I became aware of Dice Creator through Google+. All of a sudden, in my stream of Google+ shares, I started to see some really wicked looking dice. Sometimes these dice were clever – like the Inception dice; dice inside dice. Sometimes the dice were works of art – like the shadow dice. I reached out […]

Everyone’s talking about these d20 pillows

June 19, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Sometimes we can all agree on cool. When Think Geek first published these D20 Velvet Pillows I put them in a queue. This queue gets worked through on slow news days. Plans have had to change. All around the wise wonderful web I can see bloggers going cray over this clever idea. As Geek Native […]

Reddit rebellion over BF3?

June 13, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This geeky roleplayer is not in the Battlefield franchise and there was every chance that BF3 would have sailed past without me noticing – except, EA seems to have botched their “game blance” saving through like some rookie GM. The result? The powerful Reddit community is planning an open revolt. How did EA mess up […]

Spiky! Thorn dice go viral!

April 1, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This set of thorn dice aren’t cheap. Prices start at about $30. That’s certainly not putting off the window shoppers though. At the time of writing the set has had over 3,000 Facebook Likes and over 98,000 views. It’s a fantastic advert for Shapeways which I hadn’t heard of before. Do you imagine there are […]

Self-loading LEGO dice tower defeats RPG cheats

March 1, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is so cool. This Christmas I was given a plastic tower for dice rolling – not because I’m a cheat, but because one of my gamer groups think my dice rolling is bad luck and provided the tower as an alternative. Gamers and superstition, huh? In this case I suspect the tower was built […]

Amazing dice art

Do you have a problem player who’s always playing with his dice when he should be paying attention to the game? Here’s a possible solution. Give them 14,000 dice and a tune from a group called Musicshake. See what could happen. Don’t even try and suggest you don’t have 14,000 dice handy? I bet you […]

Giant squishy dice

September 23, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Think Geek are selling Giant Foam Polyhedral Dice. They’re cool. I can already imagine them being hurled at unruly players. Is there anything wrong at throwing things at players? You shouldn’t throw anything at the GM as you might topple the GM screen and surely that would end the world. I suppose the dangers of […]
