Pretty much agree with everyone. My only edit is that if a die in a dice tray comes to rest leaning, then the tray gets a tiny, gentle shake to settle it; if it is still leaning, then it gets rerolled. Also, none of this barely tipping dice out of your hand; we need to see the dice tumble a bit.

FYI&A: Here is a fun video to help you unwind. Have you already watched it before now? Not only does it have a pdf in it, there's also a jpeg, a png, a doc and several more!
:arrowE: File types hanging out
. . . Microbadgers [microbadge=2042][microbadge=2042][microbadge=56686]frequently have to convert jpegs to pngs and upon several occasions I myself have been requested to convert my doc files to pdfs (fan-made game expansion rules and our HOA Treasury Report, for example) so this here video sure hit home.
Thanks for the laugh, Pete. :geek_grin:

It's one of the singles from "...Like Clockwork" (their sixth album, I think). Well worth checking out, if you haven't heard it yet.

Don't think I've heard that one before? It's good, though, and I do like QotSA in general.

These things were decisively real.
I didn’t mean to suggest that they weren’t real, but that they are stories that have been around since the early days of roleplaying, and passed on from gamer to gamer since then.

I always regarded it as just a piece of roleplaying folklore, on par with the Secret Service raiding the offices of SJGames because of GURPS Cyberpunk, or the satanic panic of the 'eighties.

What are your rules for rolling dice? When does a die roll count and when does it have to be re-rolled? And when is there an exception to your dice rolling rules?
Generally...
wherever it lands, if it's flat and can be read, it counts.
If a roll self-stacks, and results in a cocked die, the results don't count until the table thump flattens the cocked die.
If using a dice tray: only flat in the tray count.
