WTF dice!?

I rolled 16 dice on an attack and you give me 1 success? WHAT IS UP WITH YOU?

Oh man, it's going to be like the Ananke fight all over again!

I was rather disappointed with NF's attack as well.

Kyle sticks his fingers in his ears
LALALALALALALALA! I CANT HEAR YOU! LALALALALALA!

al-Adin. Stealth. 23 dice, 0 successes.

*is boggled*
No. I don't believe it. How did you get that many dice?

Simple. He failed three rolls in a row. And it was 24 dice.

02-05 19:31:37 Al-Adin rolls 6 dice to wits+stealth Failure
6,6,5,1,6, 2

next roll has -1 die due to repetition in it.
02-05 21:02:34 Al-Adin rolls 8 dice to Dex+Stealth+shadow Failure
1,5,6,3,4, 7,5,5

02-06 22:31:21 Al-Adin rolls 10 dice to Dex+Stealth+shadow (used WP) Failure
4,5,3,3,5, 4,7,5,5,2

That was just painful to see.

Oh, that makes it less painful to think about. I thought you somehow got all those dice on one roll. At which point I was torn between my simpathetic side going "Dude, ow." and my Powergamer side going "Dude, teach."

Also there's good news and bad news-
Bad News
I looks silly because I couldn't understand the mechanics of the Contract even after pestering Lexi enough via PM to force him into baby talking how it works for me.

Good News
Assuming he doesn't punish me by making me keep that roll, I get to re roll the attack next turn. Yay?

Don't make me unleash the wrath of Tiffany's platypus altering ways.

Platapi are awesome, they have poison spurs and can see electricity.

Yes, but does Kyle want to be one?

Big die pools are not the be-all end-all for the PG, young padawan.

I was going to say something flippant like this -

Honestly? Depends on how long he'd stay one.

But then I realised that Kyle's a Beast. That means that he gets Fang & Talon on the cheap. Does Fang & Talon 2 (Platapi) let the user see electricity? If it does, I know what Kyle's spending XP on!

Still, it's fun to throw a bucket of dice around once and awhile, don't you think?

I suppose, although the set-up for disappointment is rather large, as you discovered

Don't feel bad. You guys are flippin lucky. I can't roll for crap either apparently :p

I'll let you use my special Ananke die roller next round

Sweet. Muahahahahahah

Don't worry Benjamin, you're not the only one. I just failed four rolls in a row while trying to set up a ward.

It's payback, for Armstrong having blown up 4 ananke.

That's not me you hear snickering, I swear.

Don't get too cocky, Nightfall got the one-two punch.

It's all good he's still got a bag full of tricks

Shouldn't that be guitar case? He's still got a guitar case full of tricks?

~FC.

I am so mad that I literally cannot type. This took me almost a flippin hour to finish.
