Bug with explosive dices

xxx rolls 10d10s4 = 8 ( (2 28 8 7 4 8 2 8 8 16 → 8 success(es) against 4) )

But it is 11 successes!
28 = 10 + 10 + 8 (3 successes non 1)
Same thing with 16 | reply

for some reason when i type i start to stutter, for lack of a better word. i guess an equivalent would be like "lagging" but it's more of a slow stutter.
and it only happens when I type. | reply

A lot of rooms was created aumaticaly in my acount and comands with [] dont work now. How to solve this? | reply

Whatchamacallthems don't work for me any more. Inline dice rolls? The ones where you do [1d20], they just turn up as empty messages when I hit enter.

I guess I am also gonna use this time to test if forum post rolls work for me [roll 1d20] | reply

PS - Thanks for deleting certain conversations. I was in a very black head space when I started reading some of those truly horrific trolls, and I engaged with the intent to vent my spleen back at them.

In the end, it was stupid, as I should have just ignored them. They did make very tantalizing targets, though.

Regardless, not only do I respect your decision to delete said conversations, I am grateful for it.

And for this site. I am impressed it has a way to handle Prowlers & Paragons style dice rolls. | reply

Hi, first of all thanks for the effort in keeping Rolz going. The servers seem to be up again but I still cannot see my dice rooms, just some symbols - when I try to connect I get a host error on the Rolz side. Would be great if you can look into this. Thanks! | reply

THanks Udo! Thank you SO much! GUnna be dnoanting soonish! One i figure out Funds! | reply

sorry about the outage, nobody told me and the monitoring program that was supposed to alert me didn't work | reply

Things seem to be OK...for now... | reply

No matter what 'Dice Room' I connect to, I get a connecting, but it never connects | reply

Is this site still supported? I know there are donations and such. But does the Owner still do maintenance and upkeep? There hasn't been a post from him in a very long time. I was getting ready to donate, use this place for a game. But now I am having second thoughts. | reply

The server's down and my friends and I use it for D&D please get it back up asap! Thanks! | reply

There's currently an issue with the servers. Any updates or news on when this issue will be resolve? Thanks! | reply

It seems the servers are down. Does anyone know a reliable way to reach the owner/Operator to be able to fix it? | reply

Hello,
I love this site and it makes it so easy for me and my friends to play for RP sessions; however recently the site has been crashing and it's almost impossible to use it. If this were to be fixed I would say this site be 10/10 | reply

Hey there, interested in incorporating your system for something huge I am launching in the near future, but there seems to be a problem with the Dice Rooms. Would appreciate any update you can give on when you plan to have that resolved, please.

Thanks!

None of my Dice rooms are loading. | reply

It has now been over 24 hours since the Chatrooms went down, it is now becoming more and more disconcerting, since we cant even get the chatlogs for future notes. | reply

I tried making a new dice room and it didn't work. The message "Connecting ..." kept appearing repeatedly, and it seems that several people have had the same problem in the past few hours, even days. | reply

the rolz dice room isnt loading it just keeps showing up as connecting over and over again | reply

Performance has been lacking for two months and now the servers are down for a long time.

Our league has given decent donations and can't play.... | reply

It has been 6 hours since my last post here, 18 hours since the chatrooms went down, For everyone who isnt sure, go to 'Dice Room' and look at 'Server Status and Info' it you wont be able to log-in and create new ones, since the servers for it are down. but its distressing, over 18 hours since its been down. | reply

Was unable to connect to a dice room, Tried to make a new one and had the same result. | reply

could not connect to a dice room don't know if its just on my side or if its site wide. | reply

It has been roughly 11-12 hours since the chats went down, this is starting to become ridicules. It has never went down for that long before, perhaps lag, but the entire serverbase went down for the chats. Its bad since even if we want to recover the logs we cant. | reply

i'm trying to enter in my dice room and it keeps loading | reply

Wtf is up with the site as of late? It's been doing this more and more. | reply

As of right now, the chatroom servers went down for some reason, i was hoping to play with my group as we do almost every weekday, but this sudden down of the servers worries me. Its been roughly 20 minutes since, and it hasnt gotten any better. | reply

its to follow up on my comments earlier, the dice rooms again have turned into :-1 rooms on my list, and rooms refuse to load for some reason, is there something wrong with the server? Its been roughly 2 or so months since the update and things dont seem to be looking good, | reply

What's going on with all the dice rooms? | reply

anytime a macro with brackets is used, the result is blanked out | reply

Hi, for a couple of weeks now the dice rolls have been intermittently lagging for a while, and the whole left side log disappears/crashes multiple times during our two-hour sessions. Several minutes later it will reappear, only to crash again ten minutes or so later. This happened this evening, 7/20/17, between 9:30-11:30, as well as 7/17 and the previous weeks 7/13 and 7/10 (all between 9:30-11:30). I'm hoping this can be fixed, as the two different groups who I play with on Mon and Wed nights enjoy rolz but the situation is such that we may turn to another roller. | reply

In my dice rooms, there are a bunch of rooms named :-] which I did not make. how do I go about removing them? | reply

our whole roleplaying group has a problem with text not loading, refreshing sometimes solves it but it's still a pain. | reply

Excuse me, my saved rooms have all become :-1 rooms, and although im able to access some of them via logging in manually, and it 'saves' it as a new one, it resets it to :-1 rooms, This is distressing since apparently its not the first time this has happened to people on this site, because what if you cant remember the password for said room anymore?

I hope that it gets fixed as soon as possible (Seeing as the last report of this incident was May, not too long ago. I hope that this gets fixed... | reply

I love how minimal rolz is, cause that keeps it fast, but being able to use nicknames in dice rooms even if they'd been registered would be nice. | reply

Do the rooms save chat history? If so, for how long? | reply

Love the site as my tabletop baseball league uses it.

We've noticed in the last few weeks we are seeing the timeout III while waiting for a result more often then we have in the past. We use to see it maybe three times in a hour and now it seems to be happening every ten rolls or so. I wasn't sure if there was performance issue or change. | reply

in response to this "rolls 6D10L4 = 24 (low 4 of 9; 8; 8; 5; 8; 3 = 24)" roll, i believe its saying "lowest 4 of the following," it just so happens 9 is right next to 'of' so if you read it in a certain way...

(low 4 of 9; 8; 8; 5; 8; 3 = 24)

and some fixing of grammar.

(lowest 4 of, 9; 8; 8; 5; 8; 3 = 24)

it becomes much easier to read, it'll do that for all high/low rolls, as for your other inquiries i dunno | reply

Someone keeps coming into the room,

Ive changed the password twice on my room, yet someone keeps coming in to harass and annoy, now i dont know if its the person im playing with trolling me, but still thats a bit disturbing | reply

sometims when you do a comand it dont do nothing and pop ups in the chat, if you do this with a /nick and it fail everbody will be able to see you password

Hey there,
I am the editor of a new newsletter/newspaper pointed towards dungeoneering and tabletop gaming, I would like to get an interview with you, Udo. I am doing a review for my first article on your webpage here. If you could please email me so I can speak with you, that would be excellent. thanks,

Hello,

I and my friend roleplay a lot on mobile, and it is incredibly inconvenient to write a pose only to lose it because you were timed out. (This happens at least when the phone screen goes dark.) This doesn't happen on desktop, obviously, so: Is there any way for us to prevent this from happening, and if not, might you fix it? | reply

My dice rooms are missing. They've been replaced with a :-] symbol that leads to blank pages. I use Rolz for my PbP's, and so I've got links in other forums that take me back to the rooms. But, once I'm there I still can't edit. | reply

site lacks means to reset password (forgotten mine and can't sign in) | reply

I'm having weird results in the dice roller.

This example:
Lowest 4 of 6D10: #6D10L4

Renders this result:
rolls 6D10L4 = 24 (low 4 of 9; 8; 8; 5; 8; 3 = 24)

Notice that there is no reason there should be 5 rolls shown nor any reason for it to say Lowest 4 of 9. It should be the lowest 4 of 6 rolls...

Similarly...
2d20+5 renders this way:
rolls 2d20H+5 = 23 (high 1 of 18; 9 = 18 + 5)

And 5+2d20H1 renders this way:
rolls 5+2d20H1 = 17 (5 + high 1 of 12; 11 = 12)

I'm totally confused. Has this thing lost the ability to pick H and L rolls or at least how to interpret them? Is there some syntax I'm confusing? I've tried # and - as the command and I have tried different leading spaces and nothing has changed. | reply

Any chance you (or me?) could add these Tables-to-roll-on?

how can i create a NPC on this site? i know i have that option but i dont know how can i do it | reply

I made an account recently and have forgotten my password since then. Theres no way to confirm accounts on this website so Im sort of left without many options to get my name back since it locks the name. Is there anything you can do to help me out? | reply

i feel a little uncomfortable after making an account, there wasn't any way of having confirmation like an email or something. | reply

My group hates the password feature of nicknames.

Half the names we were using have been locked down.

None of us pass worded the names, but we need passwords to use them.

This feature sucks | reply

I've been getting this screen when going back to the dice room: http://i.imgur.com/bb8OX28.png

As far as I can tell, these rooms stall out rolz on my end and do absolutely nothing. I can still reach my normal dice rooms if I manually type the url in the search bar, but it's still kind of annoying and hopefully you can do something about this before it becomes a problem for other users. | reply

It would be nice to be able to clear history out of a room as the owner.
I was using the room for character creation rolls, but would like to keep them secret between people untill the first session. Because they also talk about class/race/specialisation. | reply

Hey, I was screwing around with the dice roller on the homepage and found this...

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';' in /srv/www/htdocs/rolz.org/lib/diceparser.class.php(970) : eval()'d code on line 1

Happens when doing anything like 1==1. | reply

Can enter or create no dice room. Bad gateway - no response from host rolz.org | reply

Why cant people in my room see my dice throws? I tried with #d and [d] but with both commands only I can see the results. | reply

The shortcuts I create do not save when I leave a dice room and join another room. Can you fix this please? | reply

Is there a power-user command to do the following:

For Successes with additive re-roll... The problem is that say with a 6 Sided Die with additive re-rolls will make some target numbers identical i.e. TN 6 and 7. If you roll a six you are guaranteed to get at least a 7 on the re-roll. Is there a power-user command to subtract 1 from the result before the re-roll? So if I roll a 6, the system should calculate the re-roll as 5+1d6.. This way I could end up with a 6 final result if I roll a 1. In this way a target number of 7 is no longer guaranteed. If it adds twice (rolls 6 then rolls 6 again) it should calculate the third re-roll as 11 + 1d6 and so on. | reply

When using the roller with the command below it seems to ignore the dice type and roll d10s instead:

1d6:6+4S8

I'm playing Traveller and need to roll 2d6, add them together and then add a modifier and compare the total to a difficulty number (usually 8) to determine success. It would be especially good if the command could give the "effect" of the roll as well (total rolled including modifiers minus 8)

i.e.

Engineering (jump drives) 1
Education 1

A roll to fix the jump drive would be 2d6+2 with a target number of 8.

A character that rolls 4 and 3 therefore has a total of 9 which is a success with a +1 effect.

Is this possible? | reply

After first page inserted into wiki it stops showing edit and new page buttons | reply

It seems that rooms may be logging people changing their usernames when they use a password - you might want to check on that. | reply

Thanks Udo! | reply

Hi Udo,

The rooms have become unstable, disconnecting users every few seconds. Please take a look at it when you have a chance! | reply

Hiya there Udo.

Been trying to use the rooms tonight and all of a sudden they have started glitching, throwing everyone out and making it impossible to get back in. has the site crashed? | reply

Room glitching out. Keeps loggin players out then back in constantly. | reply

Hello!

First I'd really like to say that this site is our group's go-to for dice rolling. It's simple, quick and easy, and keeps everyone accountable. You've done an amazing job with it and I hope that it continues to grow~

Second, I was curious (as I hadn't found an answer yet) if there was a way to delete rooms you don't use. I have three made but we only use one and it's bugging me ^u^;; If not, will there be in the future?


Thank you so much,

Kat | reply

Hi there,

I'm having a bit of a bother with whitelist. I used one to test it out and see how it worked, and it seemed to be working okay, but then I tried to turn it off since some of the people using the room couldn't get on. I figured it'd be an easy "/room whitelist=" and it showed up a line saying whitelist is off, but now the people just keep getting tossed to the lobby. I tried whitelisting (and turning it back on, of course) them using their registered nicks, but that just kept giving them an "You're not on the whitelist" result.

Seems there might be a bug of some sort? | reply

Group plays in several separate rooms. One particular room has stopped recording the posts/rolls of all my accounts, but the other rooms work fine. | reply

for some reason I can't sign in with my account | reply

how do i make my nickname "DM" | reply

I created an account, then got logged out. Upon attempting to re-login, my password does not work. Is there any way I could get the account deleted (it was created approximately 10 minutes ago) so I can recreate it? | reply

I understand that you needed to discontinue the legacy rooms, but is there anything when rolling dice in the new room that the base 1d20 or whatever you last typed will stay? It's really annoying when in the middle of combat and have to keep adding a hashtag and type it all out. My players keep messing up and as a GM when you are dealing with lots of monsters it's really annoying to not be able to just backspace and add something new. Maybe you can add settings? My default then could be selected on the rolling mode or something so it was like it was in legacy. | reply

I absolutely love this site, its EXACTLY what ive been looking for for so long! I also love the medieval touch, adds more... feel.. anyway would really love if you could somehow make all this accessible through a mobile device for obvious reasons or maybe even a watered down version... i know so many people that would jump at it if and when that happens | reply

Hey, Udo, just curious - when exactly are the rooms going down, in say UTC time? | reply

So the rooms are gone? They aren't connecting at all. | reply

Okay you said that the reason the rooms are gone is because of server crash, well i re-added my rooms and they have gone again for a second time.

Plus like Jazmine says I have some-one's notes which is very strange. | reply

I forgot my password for my account. How i can recovery it? | reply

Hello! My group and I have been using this site for years. Thanks for hosting the legacy rooms as long as you have. I am trying to move things over to the current dice roll rooms, but I am having some difficulties. We use a d10 pool system and I would like to see the individual numbers rolled, but the 'auto expand results button' does not appear to be working. Toggling it does not result in any change to the displayed dice, before or after the button is used. Not sure if it is a bug or if I am missing something. | reply

Hey, Udo. I used your legacy rooms a lot, for a long time. Firstly I would like to thank you for maintaining them for so long. You have been very good to a lot of the older users, especially my old group, and I would like you to understand just how appreciated that is.

That being said, I have to ask you to clarify something: when the legacy rooms go down, will the logs of said rooms still be accessible? Or will those also be going down?

Cheers | reply
