- skywhopper 3y agoOof, I’ve never heard anyone say “dice pair” to mean four dice.
- hyperbovine 3y agoWell, clearly you aren’t human then. Next!
- SpaghettiCthulu 3y agoNow that's terrible design.
- WarOnPrivacy 3y ago> Dice is plural It's also a descriptive label we use when discussing numbered cubes. In the captcha's context, that's the meaning I've fixed in place - while I parse the rest of the text. I'm seeing hints that the captcha also comes with a short time clock along with the usual locked-account punishment for failure-to-solve. Fast assumptions seem appropriate.
- dml2135 3y agoUh, no, when you describe a pair you use the plural. “Pair of pants”, “pair of earrings”, “pair of socks” — these phrases do not refer to four of something.
- pc86 3y agoDice is plural. Die is the singular.
- happymellon 3y agoA pair of earrings. Earrings is plural, earring is the singular.
- mannykannot 3y agoYou are right, though "pair of pants" is somewhat problematical as an example of this!
- ecshafer 3y agoI play board games and rpgs, so I spend a lot of time with dice and reading about dice. I don’t think I have ever heard a dice pair to reference multiple pairs of dice. My mind was looking for some weird die with a top higher than 6 since you need a pair that adds up to 14. Dice is plural but pair implies 2. They should have said just the group of dice whose top sides sum to 14.
