In Response To: Meyer Dice Tube (revisited) (Chuck Bower)

All of your observations are valid and consistent with my experience -- Richard and I played the Badger Classic final with his dice tube.

However, I just happen to like shaking and rolling the dice. I wanted to try the dice tube at least once for the experience -- so I agreed to play with it. I have no negative comments, I just prefer the old-fashioned way.

I found it mildly distracting -- due to unfamiliarity -- early in the match and this lessened as the match progressed. I'm sure if one played with the tube quite a bit the effect would disappear altogether.

Nonetheless, I'm keeping my cups.

  • This seems to be an improvement, but I still prefer to roll dice, either onto the board or thru a baffle box
