Which camp would you be in?
>>
>>44251487
Both, of course. I work as a spy for the government revealing dirty die droppers for the reward, and in secret I drop the die myself with a select few of the worthy. In this way, we can weed out those we don't like or who aren't worthy, sustaining a pure bred faction to worship our dice, and benefit from ration handouts regularly.

Life is good.

Viva la Dice Rolling.
>>
>>44251487
I would be in the camp that uses the statistical data on executions as a pseudo-random number generator, thereby making executing me for possessing an implement of chance itself a possession of an implement of chance. It won't stop them from killing me, of course, but at least I'll get a laugh out of it.

Neither.
I'd be plotting to blow up government buildings, because we're in a fucking dictatorship that needs to be destroyed, and I'd rather get put in front of the firing squad for things that are worth dying for.

No compromise. Not even in the face of Armageddon. the dice must roll,

Skill takes the place of randomness in games.

Obviously I'd turn in people for those sweet, sweet rations

So what you're telling me is that D&D would be outlawed and all kinds of other systems would take its place? I'm already goosestepping.

Is flipping coins to generate random numbers allowed?

>>44251487
>implements of chance
What does that mean? My computer can't generate random numbers anymore? Coins and decks of cards are banned?

What so people that use computers are killed?
Yeah, I'd fight the good fight. Pretty sure the resistance would win easy though, since the gov'ment wouldn't even be able to use computers.
