All, I just got the Mythic Game Master Emulator, which uses D100! Where does one find a D100 and how exactly do you roll it? |

Well that is certainly easier. |

Yea, those D100s really roll, and the numbers are tiny, so….. They make "tens" and single digit dice, to make it less confusing, but 2 x D10s in different colors work too – just be sure to clearly state, and perhaps even write down before the game, which D10 is for the "tens" die. |

One of the first games I played in the 1970s explained it. Get a red d10 and a black d10. Reds count as tens, black as units. Red has been tens ever since. |

Zocchi's D100 was a novel concept and he put a lot of work into designing it, but it was much like rolling a golf ball & trying to determine which dimple was the top one, once it finally stopped rolling. |

I used to use color declarations, but it was one more source of confusion. I finally went out and bought D10's numbered 00-90 so there would be NO mistake. Any time you can remove a possible glitch for under $5 USD, go for it. |

Roll one of these with a regular D10

Simple now, but there was a time when there were only single-digit D10s, back in the Pleistocene era…….. |

Roll 2 D10s. Make sure they are different colours. Nominate one as "tens",the other as "units". Simple. Job done. |

Nope, you can now buy dice that are a clear ten sided with another ten sided inside. Roll for 100 sided. The diceshop online link Made by Koplow. |

Really? People these days don't know how to roll a D100? It's probably one of the first things I learned when I picked up gaming many decades ago. Btw, 3d34-2 does not equal a uniform D100. |

I have a dice rolling app on my phone that has a D100 die. While not as astetically pleasing as holding die in your hands, works well, doesn't role forever across the table and is a true random number generator. For odd dice works great. |

Most of the dice sets I've bought in recent years have had two d10s, one numbered 0-9 and the other numbered 00-90. Roll both together and the score out of 100 should be obvious (000 = 100 in this method). No arguments about which die is the tens and which units, either. |
