The "intensity cube" values are generated from numbers provided by random.com, which uses real natural processes (something to do with atmospheric noise) to generate its random numbers. The Dice Stats feature in the menu on the left will show you that in the long run, the dice are fair. (Your overall dice rolls should stick quite close to 3.5.)

They might seem fair in the long run, but they still suck in indivdual games....i mean how can you lose 9 v 3...surely something is wrong. :twisted:

You still have a 5% chance of losing and while that's still unlikely, I know I've experienced 9v3 scenarios much more often than 20 times.
