S E T T I N G S ........................ In the app, there are three different rolling systems: 1) STACK 5 Here, instead of randomly rolling two dice each time, the app creates a virtual stack of cards before the rolls begin. On those virtual cards, the numbers from 2 to 12 (the numbers that can be rolled with two dice) are distributed in such a way that the numbers with the highest probability of being rolled (e.g. 6 and 8) have the most cards in the deck, and vice versa with the numbers with the lowest probability (e.g. 2 and 12). Before any cards are "drawn", 5 cards are removed from the deck. With this system, the players can be sure that the distribution is always fair. However, through the 5 removed cards, random chance still has a say in the results. 2) NORMAL STACK Normal Stack is the same system as Stack 5, the only difference is that there are no cards removed. This system is great for the hardcore players who want strongly strategy-based games. 3) NORMAL DICE This dice rolling system is what the name suggests: The app simulates two dice rolls every time a new number is needed. No virtual stacks or cards, just the plain ol' stuff. :D Apart from the different dice rolling systems, there are other configurations to make the dice rolling experience just how you like it! --------------------------------------------------------------- H I S T O R Y ..................... In the "History" section, you can review old rolls as well as other changes, such as changes in the settings or resets of the rolls. Keep in mind that you must have rolled at least one number for there to be any history. --------------------------------------------------------------- F A Q .......... In the FAQ section, there are a few questions with short but fulfilling answers. If you have any other questions, concerns, ideas, or bug reports, please leave a review! Feedback is very much appreciated! :) This app was completely developed by Joshua Goering.
