    Does anyone have a link to a dicebot that can be used through IRC?

    The one we're using right now is ridiculous. We're currently looking at a total party kill against only slightly superior foes. (And we've done hardly any damage, because of lots of misses and low damage rolls) One character is dead, I'm at 2 hp with more missed attacks than I've ever had and the others are getting owned as well. We've rolled so poorly, that it's beyond ... whatever it is beyond. :bang:

    Please, anyone?

    Why don't you use Mystra in #sp_mm then? That's what the channel and the bot are there for.

    Well, since this concerns two campaigns originating from another forum, we've got our own channel set up, with moderator positions assigned to the DMs and all that. It has worked just fine sofar, though as of late the Dicebot has been screwing with us, badly. Packing up and moving to #sp_mm would probably be possible, but I doubt many of the players would support the idea. Also, we play for three nights a week, which might not fit with the times of others that play in #sp_mm. Basically all we need is a new IRC Dice script/bot, because we've begun to question the actual randomness of our current one.

    PM Taza, I do believe he has a dice script lying about somewhere.

    Let me guess, Faragon, you are using the one in the irc.magicstar.net server, right?

    Faragon? No more critical misses every 4 rolls? Perhaps a roll above 12 this time?

    Take some time to get used to it, please?
    :p

    Caleb, yes we were. Horrible, horrible bot. The Battle Royale I hosted last night (since our DM couldn't make it) was filled with stupid rolls. One character rolled nothing but 2-5 and 18-20, the others were much the same. One character had 7 attacks/round and only three hit, since the other four were rolls of 2, 4, 5 and 1. We've got a new dicebot, but we still need official word in order to be allowed to use it. That one works perfectly though.

    MoN: I can easily get used to my raging lvl 6 fighter-barbarian finally being able to instantkill Rogue3 NPCs with his greatsword :grin:
