The dice roller is returning a 0 result for every roll I make.

Thanks for posting.

I just saw this and did a few test rolls and it seems to be working fine now. I've noticed that this happens when the off-site random number generator goes down or is having problems. Also I've noticed that it's usually very temporary. Once the random number site (random.org) was down for a few days as they were experiencing an extended DoS attack for some reason (why attack that site??? Who knows).

Thanks again for noting it. If it comes back, please post here again or start a new thread.

I rolled an 8 to hit in your game... can I re-roll?

:mrgreen:
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Clearly some PbPers trying to optimize their rolls. :)

Borrowing a previous topic...

The .com domain appears to be down. The .us pages load fine, but embedded character sheets will not. You also cannot reach the die roller directly.

I've been on the phone for the last hour. Seems ok now. Thanks for the heads up.
