We went through rolling d100 using three d10. One die determined which of the other two was the tens die. It was odd, but some people thought it gave them an edge and why argue with a harmless tweak?
- noarchy 11y agoThat seems odd, maybe because I am used to the "conventional" way of rolling d100: roll two d10s, where the first die is concatenated with the second. A roll of 0 on both dies indicates 100. Some d10s are even sold with a zero tacked on, so you actually see 10, 20, 30, etc, instead of 1, 2, 3, etc... just so there is no question as to which is the "tens" die.

- NoGravitas 11y agoWe usually used different colours and specified just before rolling which was the tens.
- robocaptain 11y agoWe would always roll two d10 for 1-100. You would call one as the "tens" die before you rolled, but inevitably, this would be a great opportunity to fudge things a bit. Rolled a 19? Oh.. well actually I meant that the RED one was the tens. Now it's a 91! :)
