I'm bipolar with dice, in that it depends on the game. I started with Torg in one group, and was the worlds worst roller -- 1d20, higher is better. In one adventure I had 13 rolls, 12 below 10. The one over 10 was to do something really, really stupid
Then I began running and playing Champions. Apparently I sold my soul for this game. I think the 54 stun on a 10d6 (no that's not a typo) EB frightened the other players.
There was one player to whom we gave the 1 point disad, "must roll own dice."
