D&D game - Page 4

I used to play with a group where 1 member was in Texas and played by phone and you would be surprised at the number of 20s she rolled as well

My brother plays this game all the time, in fact his group plays most every week. Other than that I know absolutely nothing about the game. I am curious though.

The drive is only about 3 hours, right? Plus there are lots of couches in the area.

Skype sounds real good, actually... "Oh gee, look at that, rolled a 20 again... too bad the DM can't see my dice.. Hehehehehe."

Play by Skype? Oh, how modern!

I think that's a fine idea! Though we'll have to have you show us your die rolling on camera, or someone will have to keep a percentage table on the number of 20s you rolls- and ones you don't...

In this modern world we live in isn't there somewhere on the Net where you can roll a die for D&D? Someone has got to have thought of that one

There are lots of die-rolling apps out there. In fact, here's one for the iPhone that I think is pretty damn nifty:

WotC is going to be rolling out some time in 2009 a digital platform that will enable players in remote locations to play at the same virtual D&D table. It is not an MMO! I saw it previewed at Gen Con and it looks pretty nice. It's part of D&D Insider.

There are a number of such services. Here's a place to make a classic d20 roll.

Oh, and here's a group that has quite the Skye D&D setup going.

Every unnecessary roll is a wasted roll.

So what's the story with scheduling dork-time?
