I agree Pinky, I just brought it up because you can imagine the fuss people kick up on the boards when electronic dice roll 11 four times in a row. Paranoid as people tend to be, they find suspicious patterns in everything that resembles dice but doesn't actually hop around on a table top.
[The totally OT part:]
BTW, you'd be surprised how, in a community of people some of whom have more than a 1,000 games logged, there is consistency in who plays Catan well and who plays it less well. Dice or not - some people are just incredibly good at it. (And by the same token, others are incredibly bad at it
)
Anyone who wants to have a stab at it: catan.cs.nwu.edu is where we are (well, those on Catan who haven't temporarily moved to TT). Rufflesticks is one of the admins so if she ever hopped on one of
your blds, here's your chance to get her back
