it is also not a fair dice. the chance of getting a zero is 1/16 but the chance of getting 3 is 1/4 (there are 4 options 0-3, 1-2, 2-1, 3-0 each has a chance of 1/16 to appearing)
I can’t be sure, but the 100-sided die looks like a Zocchihedron by the legendary Colonel Lou Zocchi from Game Science. He is a wonderful gentleman I had the pleasure of meeting about a decade ago, and I am glad to be reminded of him. Thanks, Tim!
I hope nothing but happyness and prosparity for u, thank u for showing us all these amazing gagets throughout the years your a living legend and i wish nothing but the best for u and hope nothing but amazing health still
I used to watch this channel all the time in middle school maybe 14-15 years ago. I randomly got reminded of it, and I'm happy to see its still around.
I imagine the die with all the same sides are used for magic or perhaps a gag gift. I could also see this as a “lucky” or “unlucky” magic item in a tabletop RPG like DnD
I've seen one very similar in a board game where you could eventually switch the faces into higher value ones. That circular groove is for removing that particular face.
The die with all 3's are for a few board games which let the player change the dice faces. Each of those threes can come off and be replaced with other numbers or icons
@tparadox88 Probably, but there are so many strange things in RPG dice now. Ducks, cheese, made of metal or prehistoric bone, unfolding into dragons...
1:33 It looks like you can switch the faces on the white die to customize it, someone just put all 3s on it, and on the reds ones there appear to be markings or holes on some of the dots, so maybe that has something to do with it.
There are a line of dice made of rubber so those who have difficulty with loud or sharp noises can still play board games and RPG's. Also them being slightly squishy makes them an ideal stress toy.
I found these round dice at a Milan art gallery shop that have a ball bearing or something inside, so when rolled the dice come to a halt pretty quickly amd whichever number’s most visible at the top is the rolled number. They were peculiar enough that I had to buy them and I know you would enjoy them thoroughly.
4:00 interesting dice but not fair. the chance to get 0 is 1/16, to get 1 is 2/16, to get 2 is 3/16, to get 3 is 4/16, to get 4 is 3/16, to get 5 is 2/16, to get 6 is 1/16
You're waiting for a train.....anyway... Dear Sir, Seeming you haven't aged a day in the past 7 years I recomend attempting to spin that spinning top without stopping it just to see if it eventually tumbles! 👍
The die with the same numbers I believe was known as cheater dice and in the old days casinos (illegally) they threw in these cheater dice so that the player either wins or loses by the number and be tricked into thinking it's higher then say a five or a six..very sneaky stuff
This channel has been bringing smiles and laughs to my life since 2014 or 2015. Thankyou so much
"You get all the numbers between 1-6"
"I just got a zero!"
it is also not a fair dice. the chance of getting a zero is 1/16 but the chance of getting 3 is 1/4 (there are 4 options 0-3, 1-2, 2-1, 3-0 each has a chance of 1/16 to appearing)
Welcome to the casino.

I owned a Zocchihedron at some point. It's a fun design, if not a terribly practical way of rolling 1d100.
This intro is STILL AWESOME!
Wow that last one is just a gorgeous object. I love how the light comes through it
It is shimmering, I was captivated too.

5:05 Tim that is a cufflink, but credit where it's due it is also an excellent spinning top.

Love the title as a little nod towards the community post
The community post of the new website?
@designanddirection no, their latest community post.
Thank you, Tim.
Rollin rollin rollin
What!
I'm very glad your still much alive. I like to check in once in a blue moon
LOVE YOU, TIM!
_"Roll double 6 to get out from jail"_
while using two of that 100 faces dice. 🤣
You have the COOLEST dice! I really want one of those tops with the spinner..
There it is Tim, very unique spinner. Thank you!
Can’t help but think that all these “alternative” dice are just trying to improve on perfection.
He doesn't know what a dice Goblin is, but he definitely is one
Love the spin die, love the intro n outro
Alright, partner
Keep on rollin', baby
You know what time it is
THROW YOUR HANDS UP (repeat)
Turn the bass up!
Legends at it still again
Oh, Tim, you need to check out D&D dice...
I'm pretty sure the 100 sided die is a D&D gag, as it would give a percentage but is much more unwieldy than just rolling 2d10.
@tparadox88 Probably, but there are so many strange things in RPG dice now. Ducks, cheese, made of metal or prehistoric bone, unfolding into dragons...
D&D has the d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20, plus a percentile die.
Dungeon Crawl Classics (DCC) adds to this with d3, d5, d7, d14, d16, d24, and d30.
1:33 It looks like you can switch the faces on the white die to customize it, someone just put all 3s on it, and on the reds ones there appear to be markings or holes on some of the dots, so maybe that has something to do with it.
Wouldent you just love to play a game of Monopolly with that 100 point dice! Great stuff,Tim!
Imagine showing up to a tabletop roleplaying game with these.
“Buy me a beer if I roll a 6?”
There are a line of dice made of rubber so those who have difficulty with loud or sharp noises can still play board games and RPG's. Also them being slightly squishy makes them an ideal stress toy.
as a pen and paper player i had to giggle a bit. cute... 100 sided dice. :D seen it, have one, used it :D

Nice dice!

I used to know someone who gave his wife a 20-sided die with '20' on all sides, because 'true love never botches'.
the die that is all 3 looks like the 3's are face plates that can be taken off and customized to have different numbers applies
The 7/11 dice would be great for craps!
0:44 Amazing i need that :O
Still rolling blunts to this day, cheers to you og pimp!
The die with the shaker and the 2 rotating sections is just 2d4-2
GREAT!
The die has been cast
Is that a paul simon reference?

Instead of having 6 normal dices why not have 6 dices where all the faces are the numbers 1-6?
Using that spinning top die would make games take 5 times longer to complete, lol.
Perhaps, but the spinning top is a toy in itself as well.

if you were to vandalise the three die by erasing dots you could do numbers in binary
That's actually kind of a neat idea, though you'd have to have some way of marking the top and bottom of each face
This was a bit dicey if you ask me !
Beach Boys?
I was thinking Paul Simon, didn't know that line was also Beach Boys. Every day is a school day! 🙂

The 7-11 dice is for cheating at “Craps”. If on your opening roll you get either a 7 or 11 you automatically win
Wouldn't it be incredibly obvious though?
