Dice poll
How about a member by member poll ( only vote once) if you think the "adjusted " dice are better / worse/ or same as the old ones ? Be interesting to see if the CC gods ( top 200) players vote 1 way, and the rest of us getting screwed vote the other way !
Surely those who are mods in CC can devise a foolproof poll that would show real data comparing votes from the top & bottom players who voted which way ... or would they ?

Now natty. As customers we have a right to complain about - inquire - question - discuss the product we are purchasing/using.
Not many of us actually publicly speak out but a LOT of people believe that there are manipulations in re of the simulated/virtual randomness here.
Lets discuss!

Right, but as a customer I have a right to note how annoying it is when someone posts the same thing into multiple threads + starts a new one for the same thing...

There are also a LOT of people who believe Elvis Presley was an alien, and there's a huge conspiracy to cover it up so they just tell us he died...
Screw the T-shirts, they should start selling tin-foil hats with CC logo on them. Guaranteed to improve your dice!

Ok natty. Your wit is cute. But also annoying. It's nice how you always try to derail threads that you don't like.
It's unrealistc to believe Elvis was an alien but it's absolutely possible for electronic game manipulation. Hey. It even actually happens.
Now go take your tinfoil hat and suede shoes and go play with your transformers so those of us who want to cry and bitch and discuss dice can do it in peace.

Losing a few games ? Bullshit ! I'm referring to the integrity of the game itself ! you don't like my thread , then vote against what I'm saying...in an honest poll, troll !

Re: Dice poll
Those that like the new "adjusted" so-called dice dare not accept a poll of every CC member , those that have a legitimate bitch that the game might be rigged...SPEAK OUT ! And no, this is not about a "few games" on my part, but a sense of duty to CC as a whole that something is rotten here. I don't give a damn if I lose a game or two, but I do give a damn if the system is rigged !

Re: Dice poll
Why would Lack rig the dice? So that he can piss off the vast majority of his customers in order to make 200 random people feel undeservedly good about their abilities to play online risk? And if he manipulates the dice, why is he a corporal instead of, say, conqueror? And if you want a poll, you can easily make one in this thread.

QFT.
Ok so I want to be amused. Who is "rigging" the dice, why, and how? Let's hear some answers instead of vague rants like "I lost 7 against 3 so the dice must be rigged"
How about some statistical data? Can someone even show me a dice analyzer feed that shows his dice have been consistently worse than the expected average? And by this I don't mean any 100 or so rolls, if you have over 10000 rolls to show then you might have something (although it could still just be random variation.)
But please just cut the stupidity. If you want to be taken seriously then show the evidence! FFS. Even some anecdotal evidence would be better than what you are doing now, which is basically saying "I think the dice are rigged, because, umm... well, because I just kinda have this feeling they are... and my grandmother can tell when it's going to rain so I'm usually right about these things."

Re: Dice poll
Somewhat unrelated but It would be interesting if CC kept more player stats. Preferred maps, percentage of each number rolled, what percentage of a players opponents are what rank ect.
I would also be interested in hearing OP's reasoning. I've of course had awful luck but I've also been ridiculously lucky at times so I think the dice are fine.

Re: Dice poll
I always ignored such threads, but now I am back after about a year of absence... So I'll ask some questions:
1. What are the "new adjusted dice"?
2. How dice are rigged?
- are they favor an attacker or defender?
- or are they favor some players, while screwing others?
- what's the criteria? (how throwing routine decides who should be favored and who should be screwed?)
I was never really satisfied with my dice, but I've always thought that was my greed, not the real malfunction...

Re: Dice poll
1. the random-number-fetching code has been improved which has resulted in less predictable dices. You can no longer use the "roll and wait" strategy because streaks aren't as predictable as before. So dice are more random.
2. They aren't, it's just bad losers' paranoia.
