Backgammon Dice are NEVER precision dice

Precision dice may not be as "random" as a dice generator, but I assume they are a hell of a lot harder to "hack" than an app. And before you blast me for suggesting that your app, or any other, could or would be hacked, allow me to say the issue is far less one of reality than of perception. We have all seen the absurdly long shot hit many times. And ALWAYS not in our favor. That's perception. That's behind the comments I assume we've all heard about "Gridgammon dice". And that's what I think you're battling with electronic dice.
Personally I'm not a fan, but I'm never a fan of anything new so that means nothing. And, as always, I admire your tenacity in pushing the boundaries of innovation in the game even as I curse you every time Patrick Gibson makes me play with that God damn baffle box.
