No-one but NO-ONE who knew what I bought could understand it -- but for the people who regularly roll dice, you get it, right?

I bought a small one, my first one ever, from The Broken Token last year. It's great if you have a small footprint/lack an area to chuck dice within. But it's LOUD. I should have put felt or something on the various shelves within it.

Oh I do as well. But in my house, I'm the only one that is a gamer, and I can just hear the eye-rolling every time I use the thing.

I padded the inside of mine to deaden the sound.

Built my own from some left over wood. I glued felt inside to deaden the loud clattering.

To be complete you must have the Dice of Shame DLC (https://www.thebrokentoken.com/modular-dice-tumblers-shame).

I don't like to use dice towers. They interfere with my dice mojo.

Shouldn't you HAVE dice mojo first before you can lose it?  :D

I didn't say it was strong mojo

There's your problem. Dicebot is female.

You're correct, ojsdad. I just checked and sure enough, the data checks out.  :o

She was cute when she was a D6, but since she grew to a D20 you have to watch what you say.

Are you calling her fat?  ;D ;D

Lets say I thought she was more sexy when she was a D12.

I’m with with mirth - no dice tower for me

I’ve watched so many videos of dice coming down behind others, hitting 6s and spinning them over into lower numbers - I get the maths but I’ve never seen them hit a 1 and turn it into a 6!!
