Just doing a little market research. :D Obviously in a lot of gaming systems the d20 is used the most, but I want to know which one you have a real fondness for. The one that you really look forward to rolling because you like the way it looks, or the way it feels in your hand; the first one you pick up and look at when you dump out a new set of dice. Maybe it's one that you used a lot for spell effects, weapon damage, or hit points for your favorite character. Maybe you just like it and have no real reason why! That's cool too.

Man, I have a terrible habit of making polls and then not explaining why I voted as I did. :faint:

My favorite is the d4, followed by the d8. I love the d4 because my very first D&D character was a wizard whose signature spell was magic missile. Damage for magic missile is rolled on a d4. Wizards were pretty wimpy at the time and their hit points came from a roll of the d4 as well. So every time I pick up the d4 I think of Zorra!

I'm currently playing clerics in two different games, and their healing spells and hit points come from a d8, so I like that one a lot too. :D

In order:
Percentiles. (d10 pair)
d6 or pair of them.
d20

I play mostly freeform, so it's easy to figure the odds of something succeeding and then have a player roll against that with percentiles, answer a yes/no or gauge the effects of something on a scale with d6's, and for a wider scaled situation, d20's are useful.
