I got new dice!

Post by Joes2Silly »

I don't know if you all are as much of nerds as I am, but I play magic the gathering (trading card game) and I just got some new 5mm dice. If you don't know how small that is, here are some pictures :wink:

Here is one on top of a dime

A couple on top of a SD card

A few of them stacked up....

And one on top of my 17" LCD monitor

Why do you need such tiny dice?

Magic the Gathering: Portable? :P

Someone needs a life if they think dice are cool :P

Maybe I do need a life. Has anyone on this board ever played magic the gathering? If you ask me it's more social interaction than some of you people get in a month :lol:

I played quite a bit awhile back. It's quite fun, but I realized how expensive it gets. :lol: On a related note, if you want to buy any cards from about 5-6 years ago (I think), I'm your man.

I smell some passive-aggressive feelings in this thread. :lol:

I don't think the internet has a smell. On a serious note, I'm glad that I'm the only nerd on this forum that plays magic, and to those asking "why do you need dice that small", I say "why do we need portables that small" :lol:

My house has so many dice you would never believe it.

We have 5 sets of dice for D and D, tons of dice (including those mini ones) for Warhammer and like 15-20 standard 6 sided dice for our modifications to risk.

I don't know why you would need those, but I want them! Where did you get them?
A truly wise man can entertain a thought without accepting it. A fool cannot withhold past judgments but instead closes his mine to new possibilities. Someone who wants to innovate simply needs to forget what everyone says isn't possible.

:lol: A couple of my friends and I are having a Magic day tomorrow (later today to be technical). I love Magic, and I definitely agree with Joes2Silly. It is a very social game.

But those are some pretty sweet dice. I wonder if they make a d20 in 5mm......

My friend got them at a weird store in San Marcus ( I live in San Antonio, TX), but I'm sure you could find some online. I paid about $9 for 73 dice, but it may be a bit more if you buy them online. And I'm glad I'm not the only nerd here on benheck!

I've seen those, but I would prefer ones with a translucent color
