Clearly they were adding their modifiers already.

Quit looking at my dice, cheater

If you didn't cheat like a motherfucker, you wouldn't have to be supervised.

Cheater.

One of my regular GMs has this kind of problem with one or two of his players. He has told me that he just lets them do minor swindling like that.

I suppose it is less drama and the story goes forward. Not sure if it's the right move though.
>>
>>44691996
Obviously they have one of those old school d20s with 1-10 on both sides, but in different colors to tell the teens from the single digits.

It's not like anyone would intentionally cheat at a cooperative story telling game, right?
>>
>>44691996
They may have added up their mods, or their cheating in a cooperative story driven game....probably not the best idea to keep them around.
>>
>>44692130
No. It would be like someone going to the internet and telling lies.
>>
>>44691996
Pretty sure one of my PCs does that
No way in hell you rolled 3 20s and 2 19s in a row in order to sex up the former queen of hell.

I'm trying to do cool shit here like do a somersault in mid air while striking my blade into the giant spider. I can't do it if I don't roll high enough so I '''embellish'' my rolls
>>
>>44692229
I mean, you could just watch them roll.

>>44692244
Kill yourself.

>>44691996
Almost as bad as when they roll, don't like what they got, and reroll
"NO, I SAW THAT. THAT WAS A [number]" is one of my most commonly spouted lines at the table.

Another reason why online gaming rocks. Can't cheat my dicebot, bitch.

Have fun being left out of my cool antics James, your character is going to suck balls while mine goes down in legend.

If they need to use it for work/family/whatever reasons, they can step into the next room and take care of it.

I'm speaking from a GM's perspective. If I catch people cheating I give them a warning. If they do it twice I tell them to not show up next session and "embellish" the monster's rolls to kill their character.
>>
>>44692295

>phone rollers

I give them my ugliest set of dice and make them roll in what I call the "shame box" right in front of me until they get real dice.
>>
>>44692327
I actually can make an argument for electronic rollers. They're far faster than rolling 10-20 dice. Really if someone can't be engaged while a phone is near them then there are more problems than the phone.

I may have to implement that, but everyone except for one of them has online sheets, so I can only do so much unless they decide to print them out.
Also may implement >>44692325 for the purpose of fairness.

Nigga you dumb.

>implying I care about what the players roll

I just give them dice so they can have something to hold other than their dicks under the table.
I fiat everything.

This has been going on for 2 years and I haven't been caught
>>
>>44692105
I had two players who fudged their rolls constantly.

Always at character creation, and followed it with high rolls throughout the game.

I roll the same dice and get the expected average or lower.

I let it slide because most of the time they played so terribly that they needed all the help they could get.
>>
I admit it.
I cheated.
I Fudged my Wisdom roll during character creation

Hey I only fudged it to a 16. My next highest stat is 13 then 11, then everything else is below 10.

What systems have a PC rolling 10-20 dice at once?

And if you're talking about wargaming, what's the point if you can't pick up a large handful of dice, caress them gently as you roll them around your palm, getting to know them before you send them on that fateful flight, the rattle as they careen around the dice tray before finally coming to rest...
>>
>>44691996
>gm rolls to attack
>gets an 8
>says he crit
>>
>>44692953
I do that as well sometimes, honestly. Most the time, though, the characters are ones I just fuck around with for the funs. I've used maybe three in a game overall.
IMO it's totally fine so long as you don't have a character with every stat 16 or above.

Shadowrun, many editions of D&D, cthulhutech, and more!
