Personally, I like this as a dice roller. Extremely easy to use.

Random.org has everything a GM would need in my opinion. You likely didn't search hard enough. What were you looking for anyway?

Uh, just how to roll, say, a 1d4 or a 1d20. As I had said, I probably didn't look hard enough...I have to crash, 3:20 AM. Will check back in the, uh, afternoon. G'night...

The integer generator has inputs for range, so you can use it as a dice roller.

Front page. To the right. Set minimum to 1 and max to whatever. If you want something like, say 2d6, you COULD set the minimum to 2 and max to 12, but that wouldn't give the right chances for each number to be rolled. So instead I'd recommend rolling 1d6 twice in that situation.

Also for the 2d6 situation, you could also use the "Integer Generator" and just add up.

...Or, you could check out Tal's link. Which is also pretty good. Hell, now that I've tried it I think it might be better than Random.org.

I think it is. It has preset virtual dice, with areas to input modifiers and # of dice, and it has a field for the more outlandish dice. Or a coin.

Am I the only one who rolls with real dices?

I do have dice but I don't like rolling them, 'cause they inevitably fall off my desk and get lost... until I step on them. :U

Yea, I've noticed that happening too. "The Floor always wins" I tend to say when losing yet another innocent dice for The Floor's ever growing hunger.

And it's always, without fail, the d4 that gets lost and stepped on, isn't it? -__________- It sucks for me because my dice are the same color as my carpet...

Hardwood floors and all furniture without under spaces! My floor is a kind mistress!

My quarterstaff on the other hand, hates me and will not hesitate to fall on my head if I let it. This may be because I twirl it around with my feet (This took practice), but still.

I don't roll with real dice, because rolling by hand isn't as random as the atmosphere in my opinion. I mean, honestly, you're not going to get much more random than the atmosphere.

In addition, if you roll with real dice, you're not going to have something like 1d18 ready, are you?

I have real dice, but I lack certain ones - notably, I don't think I have a d8 lying around anywhere. It's just faster for me to use the D&D dice roller.

Though, rolling real dice DOES sound fun. I might give that a shot, starting next RTCA update.

Hey, mine are the smoke quartz ones on that page. ^^^ I keep them in one of those black velvet-feeling jewelry pouches because I'm pimp/douchebag-y like that. :3
