    When you roll a d6, and the face looking upwards shows a 1, have you rolled a 6, no? Then why change the approach for the d4? Number rolled goes up!

      The guys on the top have their d4s the correct way, and the people on the bottom are heathens that deserve death

          D4s are dumb. Just use a D8/2.

              I recently received a d4 as a gift that was essentially a d6 but with two rounded faces so it can only land on the four sides. It’s objectively the better experience but feels like treason.

              I hope you also roll a pencil as a d6.

                    Purple (number up) team for sure. The only alternative I'll accept is the ones that look like crystals, but I mean c'mon they're just so cool they get a pass, numbers up pyramid is clearly the *correct* choice.

                      But then you can't tell at a glance what kind of die it is.

                        I got mine from [Math Art Fun/The Dice Lab](https://mathartfun.com/thedicelab.com/index.html). I also got their Orbiform d4, which rolls nicely and looks and feels great.

                          AFAIK Zocchi's d4 do not have numbering on the truncated part of the pyramid. I got mine from [Math Art Fun/The Dice Lab](https://mathartfun.com/thedicelab.com/index.html). I also got their Orbiform d4, which rolls nicely and looks and feels great.

                            Can’t roll a 0 on a D4. I think you’d need: (D8 mod 4) + 1 ? But that gets confusing. I think /2 and round up is easier?

                              You're right. Off-by-1 error. Would be a Z4 then.

                                Fill the holes with a resin of the same density as the bulk material to balance it and I'd have no issues against it.

                                  Who needs glances when you have organization? There's also versions that use pips or roman numerals or other symbols to make them visually distinct. You could also get them in a different color. Inferior shapes should never be accepted for convenience.

                                          But do you do d8 mod 4 or ceiling(d8/2)?
