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 heck? Where does one get these dice?

Those are def chaotic good

Take two different coins: designate one as worth 1, the other, worth 2. Flip both and total the value of the coins showing heads; 0=4. It’s percentile dice in binary.

...not from a Jedi...

I don't understand the difference--

Look! I have a… *rummages in wallet* d512 !

The far army has the number on the vertices (4), the close army has the number on the base (3).

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

*[dramatic head turn]*

this implies d4s can be rolled and not tossed. the number goes on the bottom of a d4 to demonstrate that it is an affront to all that it is good. what you value it breaks because it finds it funny

Zocchi was an underappreciated legend


These fools! It is so obvious which way is correct

D4s are dumb. Just use a D8/2.

Never! I swear by d8%4.

You nearly convinced me, but I can't get over how difficult it is to read when hovering above it, so even though it may be what the rotten things _deserve_, I shouldn't bear the punishment for the crime of their existence.

I’ve never looked at a number-on-top d4 and thought “ouchy if only there was an easier way”. Not once. Whether or not I agree with you, the fact that there is a noticeable difference to you, which crosses a particular threshold, is wild.

Thems fighting words. lol I don't actually have that strong of an opinion. just a slight preference for being wrong apparently.
