I seem to get the worst dice when I play from Midnight to 3:00pm GMT, but the best dice when I play from 8:00am to 11am GMT. Has anybody noticed anything like this?

The best time to play is when you are not playing vs me ;) No serious question. Why the times in GMT?

If you were paying any attention at all, you would realize that the following times are precisely when the dice are set to give you the prime numbers:

The 6th of every month, particularly at 6:06, 6:16, 6:26, 6:36, 6:46 and 6:56. Really, if you're playing at any other day or time during the month, you're simply wasting your time.

I found February 29th gives the best dice, by far.

Random.org publishes the dice lot every week on Monday mornings between 6-7am. During that time any external dice calls can cause a delay in the current request and published rolls, this delay will result in a streak of the last requested roll, So there may be large streaks during that time if Conquerclub has used up its reserve calls. If you can figure out if the last published roll was a 4 or higher you can win some easy speed games during that period. I used to do it all the time but I can no longer get up that early.

Yes this is true, but its even better if you get a month where there are 5 mondays in it, that bonus monday is the key, so the next time it will happen is june 29'th, How do you guys think King Herpes gained rank so quickly?

I put the times in GMT so people reading the post, all over the world(!!), wouldn't have to calculate from my time zone to theirs, which might be harder than just figuring it out from GMT. But maybe it IS a local time thing. Or maybe it has to do with how many players are playing at the moment you are playing. Or maybe it's just my imagination...

It's possible you also play differently at different times of day. If you don't play as well late at night/early in the morning as you do in the afternoon, you may remember this as the dice not being in your favor. I remember reading something a long time ago that human brains function at their most optimal in between 7 am and 9 am, which people cited as evidence for why class schedules should rotate at school.

Don't forget lunar and tidal cycles also have an impact on the intensity cubes, and thus your games. June 22nd is the next New Moon, keep that in mind while your longer games near the date. ;)

Dreadcat has warned me repeatedly when to not play.... I often ignore his advice and then get bad rolls. Maybe he's onto something. Or maybe he's just turning me into a fellow conspiracy theorist when it comes to the dice.

I'd just like to say that if you're married or living with a female, lunar cycles may not affect the intensity cubes, but may affect the intensity of the emotion directed at you spending so much time on "that stupid game" :lol:

Win o'clock! I like that, Timminz! Now, what would that be in, say, Eastern Daylight Time?

I prefer win o'clock, Atlantic time, but that's because it's where I am.
