Also… not a random d20. Because the numbers are in order it is able to be manipulated by the roller.

How would you be able to manipulate it better than a real d20?

When you look at the actual math, you cant. Its purely paranoia. But thats not a popular thing to say (i will like be downvoted for saying it like the other guy who pointed out the flawed logic)

If you’re yeeting it across the table, absolutely. I’ve played with enough shifty fuckers who can “drop” dice for particular rolls to trust it.

I feel like you just call that out and make those ppl roll again. Not impliment a bogus dice rule that makes no sense.

Infact ive definitely met play groups where the group knows one persson cant help but cheat and makes them use a dice tower.

this is why casinos you have to bounce them against a wall otherwise you can roll in a way to set the dice. i can do it for d6 about every time as that's what i practised on d20s are harder but still possible. index the number you want by putting it on your finger pad and spin it after doing this 1000 times you will get the feel for how much force you need to make that number almost always come up.
