That is funny because I was going to post that I think it was X, but now I won't do so. If TPTB deem that they should be outed check with Wade because I could be misremembering.

I'm hopeful they dont want to know.....

I went through the room as well and agree, it was great having a real dice instead of a spindown

What’s the difference ? Pictures?

A spindown (used a lot for Magic) has each sequential number adjacent to each other. This results in clusters of either high or low numbers. So if you learn how to roll the big die the right way, you can consistently roll into the number (+/-2) of what you were aiming.

I've noticed that whenever I roll for initiative, if I wanted to roll the giant die hard enough to get a sufficiently random (in my mind) result, I'd have to throw it high enough that I'd risk denting the board I was rolling it on, because otherwise I'm getting a fairly deterministic flick out of my wrist. It just doesn't rotate well enough, so I have to intentionally try not to pay attention to which way I'm holding the die as I roll it, which is...not ideal.

Yikes. By that point, I'd be giving the players a surprise round and offering a free max crit to the player that found the die.

(and have called my AC for a replacement)

Maybe TD could get custom large D20s (34 MM should be big enough) with the TD logo (or dungeon logo?) for the 20 and auction them.

And maybe just sell regular sized TD D20s?

It was sitting on the consumables bucket. White die on white bucket.

Food for thought, don't know if anyone has brought these up yet
