How to Read a d100 Dice Roll. Are you doing it wrong?
- az_reth 2y agoGetting into D&D and found this article to be quite interesting. Dead wrong, but interesting.

The author is trading the ability to intuitively read numbers for consistency, which isn't needed. I'd much rather remember the one special case - `00-0` being 100 - rather than the un-intuitive need to treat every `X0-0` as `(X+1)0`. And in any case... consistency is whatever you choose and stick with.
