Is anyone else starting to think diceless systems are sounding good?

In our games, when the discussion goes on this long, the rock is usually
sufficient... ;->=

Much too complicated. I normally flip a coin. If I want to increase the
tension I'll toss paper currency into the air.

What insidious trick is this? Are you somehow trying to drag my off hand
comment into the swirling pool of tedium that is your basic mangling of
statistical handling of the lowly d6?!?

How dare you sir. d4s at dawn Science Boy!

It's unfortunate that a '1' is bad in that game as well. Is there a game where
rolling '1' is good? You'd own...totally own.

> A '1'. Beat that!

Was that a Royal '1' or a Metric '1'? I get so confused...

Damo picks up the tetrahedron, and starts it rolling across the table top,
where one point catchs on a depression, and hangs with the flat side up. He
promptly concedes, stating 'no number is nothing, and that's lower than
one'.

He noticed that he was rolling in the presense of mixed company, and couldn't
bring himself to yell 'cocked'.

Pretty much, at all, though I did consider it pure fantasy, not a comment on
his possibly reticent nature.

Truth is, I was hoping to get someone to shoot his morning coffee through his
nose. *shrug*
