				Not a lot I can't find in Seoul, but at the moment I'm stumped. 
 
 
I need those funny Dungeons and Dragons style dice -- the ones with 4 sides and 8 sides and 10 sides and 20 sides and whatever they hell how many sides.
 
 
Any ideas? |

				another thing i'd recomend is head to Walmart and pick up a set of GIANT FOAMY DICE!
 
 
They are fairly durable and the kids love to pitch them around the class. |

				Thanks Oigirl and waggo. I have a shit load of normal six-sided dice. Looking for some of the more unique ones, which mithridates covered.
 
 
Thanks anyway |

				| What are you doing with the many-sided dice? Are you using them in the classroom? |

A few reasons:
 
 
I figure a game that usually takes 40 minutes with a 6-sided die will take longer with a 4-sided die.
 
 
I make my own games so I can make a one-hundred square board with a different trivia question (or whatever) on every square, and roll the one hundred sided die.
 
 
Just a change from the six-sided die. |

				Got 'em. Got lots of dice.
 
 
I have 4-sided and 8-sided and 10-sided and 12-sided and 20-sided.
 
 
Let the good times roll. |

				| I have an 8-sided die that has been to more countries than I've been to. I used to give it to my friends whenever they went on vacation. I think it's somewhere around 20 countries, but I've lost track. It's in my backpack right now. |
