- melling 5mo ago91 is respectable for a reasonable man in the early 21st century. A few unreasonable people want a bit more.
- jrflowers 5mo agoAnd most of them will die before turning 91. Like most people.
- zulban 5mo agoNothing unreasonable about wanting to live healthy and longer. It's not likely tho.
- melling 5mo agoA guess? That’s what people always say until science progresses. I remember when we believed HIV would not be treatable. Science advances one funeral at a time.
- tonyl 5mo agoThose of us already over 40 already thats maybe the best we can expect, for 20 y/olds who knows..
- TacticalCoder 5mo ago> But 91 yo is more than respectable And it still fits on a d100!
- bombcar 5mo agoAnd it's a respectably high roll!
- YeGoblynQueenne 5mo agoThe "Zocchihedron" is a single die with 100 sides, but most games that use a d100 simulate it with two d10s instead (reading the ones on one d10 and the tens on the other). So the truth is that Zocchi's die is more a novelty and less influential than it might appear at first if you take the title as written.
- estimator7292 5mo agoYeah, a real d100 is just too impractical for actual gameplay. Super neat, but two d10s is far more usable.

AFAIR it didn't necessarily roll for very long but it was a bit hard to make sure what numbers was really the one at the top. Still: it had a cool factor.
