Ah yeah, you're right. I mixed the words for edges and corners

Too expensive.

Not if it's a [thnickel](https://thick-coins.net/). 

One of my overdue projects is to disassemble a magic 8 ball, remove the dice from it and make a digital magic 8 ball. I plan to bequeath the removed “dice” to a DM I know.

You have to wait for it to finish rolling up if it lands with a value on the down side.

Thanks, I hate it.

This was my thought. Mfers be out here debating whether the thing depicted is actually a "two sided" dice, meanwhile coins just be chillin over there getting ignored. Y'all be trippin.

I need to get one of these sometime

Whatever you call them, people will respect you more when you use them.

thank you for this blessed website in trying times

The picture is of a d4. Dice are measured counting the flats (and therefore possible number of different results) not mathematically defined "sides".

If you wanna get loosey-goosey with it and count the curved bit as a result, its still just a d6 lmao

Even not considering that, they still aren't 50-50 odds. The stamped printing on both sides throws off the balance just enough to bias one side over the other.

Make sure to wear long gloves and short sleeves. The dye in that water is *strong*. I was purple for days after cracking an 8ball and people kept asking how I got hurt.

Agreed, but also weird as aren't d4 made from 4 triangles?

a two sided die is called a coin

aka really short cylinders

Usually, yes. This one is effectively a d6 (a cube), but two of the flat faces have been replaced by curves that connect opposite flat faces. As such you've got four flat faces that the die can actually stop on. If you ignore the curved parts but consider all of the flats to be separate faces, it's a d4. If you consider two flats connected by a curve to be a single face altogether, it's a d2.
