Do you not get that we aren't complaining about the dice as much as we are complaining that the new system sucks? If it's not broke, why fix it? Ignoring the consensus is not wise. Ye gods, I've never seen anyone so blinded with the ignorance, denial and the desire to be right. That's ok. That's how the mighty always fall in the end.
I've stayed out of this conversation because the answer seems to me to be so glaringly obvious that participation in it is a bit redundant.
However, in light of your most recent post I was compelled to respond (read: I almost died laughing).
This is a GAME, which has little to no consequence on anything else in the world. The "new" dice system hasn't made any noticeable difference in the dice; if it had, statistic and streaking analysis would have shown it. So by that argument, you fail.
Obviously, this game has had some fun value to you, otherwise you wouldn't play it. The sad fact about life is (and I sincerely hope I'm not the first to tell you this) that it isn't fair. Sometimes you get the short end of the stick. On the other end of that, whether you realize it or not, you've gotten miraculously good *defensive* dice at times when someone else *really really needed to win that roll* and then they probably whined about it too. Probably not in the grandiose and entirely ridiculous manner you just have, but perhaps in a few choice swear words.
In other words: stop crying. If you don't like the game, don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
