Utter bull. Half of it is contradictory and the bit about microwaving your dice is ridiculous!

Each to their own I suppose...

So the article is about cheating then? Didn't bother reading the article, just assumed. Dice are supposed to give random results, any attempt to alter that is cheating, whether it works or not. But this has been discussed at length in the past, so no need to rehash it.

No man, microwaving really works...! It's all about positive energies man, like you know, praying to the dice gods and all.

Sacrificing does work too, just make sure your dice understand what happens to them if they dont roll what you want them to. Think positive and all. :D

If it was then it may have been interesting, if underhanded. Actually it's about things like arranging your dice in size order when not using them to allow the 'positive energy' to flow through them more easily and keeping your dice on you at all times so that they 'bond' with you.

And don't forget to not look at your dice while they're rolling in case you accidentally move them with your ESP!

I hate superstition almost as much as organised religion...

I think someone needs to re-read the article, then realise the amount of piss-take in it.
If you think it's a serious article, I've got an bank account in Nigeria I'd like to talk to you about...

Before rolling a die, ask a philosophical rhetorical question such as "What if I needed a (the number you want)?" Dice seem to respect philosophical people because they feel that they are on the same intellectual plane of consciousness.
I'm learning so much from this article!

I thought to start with it was a pisstake but then started to think it was serious due to the fact none of it was the least bit funny.

I hereby change my opinion from 'utter bull' to 'utter rubbish'. :)

Read the article. It is just superstition. Just for fun. Hey, I thought that before I read it.

It is just for fun. Its very tongue in cheek. Ignore the dice in the Microwave, although I dont think the author meant it in a cheating sense, more in a creating positive energy sense.
I dont believe in Ghosts, God, Karma, Crystal Healing and all that crap, but it put a smile on my face so thought Id share it with other people that roll a lot of dice.
