Suggestion: Dice Roll

Subject: Suggestion: Dice Roll Wed Jul 20, 2011 7:47 am

So I was looking for a way to enhance our lottery and Aggressor to incorporate real-time chance into it. So I remember we used dice in some RPGs and decided to see if our forum had a dice option. It so happens we do!!
Now this suggestion can only be approved by Shady and Reborn but I would also like to hear everyone's opinion on this first.

So vote for if you want dice or not and leave any comments/suggestion of use/etc.

I really dislike the idea of Dice since we don't really need it. Maybe if we used it for KG but we don't own KG, thats sci's area.

For AB, I think its better if we keep it the way it is then build off to more basic ideas.
Since I for 1 can abuse the dice roll if it works the way i think it does and that is why I don't wanna add that. Maybe for lotto i use random.org to do all my lotto stuff and how hard I make the GA and luck game.

Don't forget Shugo that your 1 of the KK's leader as well. As long as you stand strong on your idea and give enough detail for it then Me and shady will agree as well but don't forget that If 1 of us don't agree, The idea won't get be made or done

Everything can be exploited to some extent. No way to prove that what you claim happened on random.org actually happened

What I meant for the dice was for only the 3 leaders to roll and if the RPG committee (mainly Crimson) to use. But I can see Crimson thinks it won't work for his RPGs.
The idea behind the dice is physical, random evidence as James has pointed out. I wasn't thinking of letting any user use this function but this forum doesn't have a control on permission. It's not that I don't trust our users but as Reborn has been mentioned, it is exploitable to an extent.

As for how the dice work. You simply choose a dice (we can make them) and it will come out as a BBCode function in your post. When you post it will generate a possible choice out of the faces of the die. The problem is that with the BBCode function, the die will re-roll if you hit edit or quote the post.

Example:

This dice is not existing.

-This post is for testing Dice w/o BBCode use.-

Edit: OMG!!!! IT SHOWS SCI ROLLING THE DICE FOR US!!! Crying or Very sad

-Tears of Joy-
And you can't change it unless you're a mod who can edit Sci's post.

The member 'lKKlShugo' has done the following action : Dices roll

'Demo' :

Result : 5

Subject: Re: Suggestion: Dice Roll Wed Jul 20, 2011 8:37 pm

Kinda odd how it says 5, yet the 6 side is face up.

No idea how this works still, but it sure looks interesting.
Also, I like how it looks like Yuuka is playing a dice game with us because of Sci's display picture.

@Drew - it's the dice icon for rolling the Demo die.

@Sutan - basicly when you post you can roll a dice (look under preview; the option is not available in Quick Post) using it will get Sci to throw that die and you will get a random result. I plan to use this in KG and lotto. Maybe in agressor. I will expand on this when I get home.
