[d100 or die!] Zocchihedron for your free use - not a real game
« on: January 10, 2013, 10:48:31 pm »

Recently, I found a Zocchihedron (also known as "holy crap is that a golf ball d100") for sale, so I bought it. So, I have access for a d100 and it rattles and rolls very cinematically when thrown. If you would like me to film a short video of rolling this beast to produce a result for your RtD thread (preferably for something epic and monumental!), send me a PM and I'll upload it to YouTube for you to link. The video provides evidence that it has actually been rolled.

Hopefully there will be some interest, and remember, there's a 1% chance that your roll could end in the thing wobbling, rolling and just barely coming to rest on 100 - wouldn't that be spectacular?

If you're feeling ambitious, you could make 100 videos, one for each result, and set up something to play a random video.

I know! It even rattles when you shake it - it's a precisely tuned work of art.

You did write that you wanted to roll for something monumental. Apparently, there's a low amount of GMs that are doing something monumental. Go figure.

I'd actually ask you to roll a turn's worth, but I feel it'd be too much effort to be asking for and I'm not really running anything at the moment. If only the roll to GM concept took off~

let's rephrase that.

Thanks for still supporting the concept.

There's also the problem that fairly few GMs use d% for RtD.

I'll take one d100 roll to go please! And make it snappy!
The result will be featured on this thread. I haven't decided what it will do yet. :)

Random number generated from 1 to 100. Typically used to generate percentile rolls for tables, hence the name. Traditionally done by rolling two d10's.

Have it determine my target or something like that! Or better yet, do one for everyone!

I got one of these for Christmas actually, and now I feel like running a game that uses it somehow. Seems like low bonuses and penalties would be almost meaningless though.
