Connecting....Connecting.....Connecting....Why? | reply

I know it's rng, but damn my dice rolls over the last two weeks have royally sucked...80% of the time i can't get a roll above 10. | reply

Hello,
I’m curious if something had changed in the rolling algorithms recently (in the last few months maybe)? The rolling seems to became more chaotic and less resembling normal distribution. We are playing WoD where you roll several dice and get “successes”, and it may be just me, but now the weird “minimaxed” rolling sequences like 9 9 9 2 1 9 8 7 or 5, 2, 8, 4, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3, 7 seem to appear way too often. I ran a few tests on the Rolz main page, and it does appear to be an issue, and not just a stroke of (bad) luck. | reply

I’m using a iPhone 6s+ to access Rolz. I can’t get the blogs for the game I’m in and I can’t post new threads in the forum. Please help me | reply

when you add modifiers i.e. 1d20+5 the mod is set as equal to zero so the roll comes out as wrong. | reply

Is there no way to change password? | reply

Heya,

I see you have a equal to and greater formula. Is there something like a equal to and under?

For example, in a quest that I follow, it has a Talent Number and in order to count cultivation successes, it's every roll that's equal to your talent no. and lower for successes. So if you talent number is, say, 6, 1-6 = successes, but 7-10 = failures. | reply

I have read the law, the citizen brief made available to us. Not the full document introduced to the Union (yet.)

First and foremost; this website is not a business. It would be considered a private, non commercial website, and these laws target companies. (Registered and all, operating in the EU or having trade deals in place legitimizing working in the EU and of course, being subject to EU laws whilst doing so.) Because you are not a "Service provider." in the term of a contract (Tit for Tat) But rather a free to use tool online using donations i do not think you are subject to the penalties or obligations.

Secondly in regards to liability, I think you lawyers was commenting on: (Art. 33-34 of the Regulation)

"If your data is lost or stolen, and if this data breach could harm you, the
company causing the data breach will have to inform you (and the relevant data
protection supervisory authority) without undue delay. If the company doesn’t do
this, it can be fined. Recent attacks, such as WannaCry, Meltdown and Spectre, or
the Uber case show how important this new right is."

That is to say if Damages WERE suffered, proven by court, and willful ignorance or attempts to cover up the breach, proven in court sanctions will be filed. But, because you are not a for-profit anything. But i also do not think your site (as far as i can see) stores any information that could "Hurt" a person. People do not have secrets hidden here, banking information, credit cards? Home adresses?

And (Art. 12-14 of the Regulation)

A right to receive clear and understandable information
about who is processing your data, what data they are processing and why they are
processing it.

I do not reckon you store much information, but you will need to have one of those anoying eula's or pop up saying. "We have cookies, store your ip for future visits and do not do anything with th is information, the Eu has asked me to be annoying so click on the TRIANGLE, not the X to say "Ok man. what ever let me roll dice."


It is my opinion that you will be fine, but asking lawyers who understands EU laws and your specific obligation is a good step to ensure you manage your risks.

I have been using your site recently and hope to continue to use the work of your great efforts in the comming years.

Stay calm, be good, and be cool man.

-Eu guy. | reply

Hey dude, I don't really understand what you're saying with your latest message, but nothing in any EU legislation would stop EU residents from accessing this site, their is no legal issue.

All the best | reply

No way to change password? | reply

Hey great side! but i was so smart and forgotten my password :) to my account name as epid can you help me? | reply

Ending a roll with a semi-colon rolls an extra d0. | reply

If I try to save shortcuts it only saves the first six. Everytime I change Dice Rooms all my other shortcuts are reset. | reply

I was wondering if there is a rolz Discord bot? | reply

When I enter my credentials in Chrome, and try to log in, it gives me an error page. ("This page is not working.")

Then, if I hit "Refresh," it gives me the blank login screen again.

Then, if I hit "Dice Room" it acts normal, and goes to my dashboard.

This does NOT occur if I login with Microsoft Explorer. (The old one, Version 11.0.9600.18837)

So apparently, ROLZ doesn't work correctly with Chrome. Will there be a fix for this? I've been putting up with this for quite some time (a few months) and although I know how to bypass the error, it is inconvenient to be forced to do so.

Thanks! | reply

Hi there,

i tried to use the api, however i notice that you haven't set an Acces Controll header, meaning that the only viable option to use it is jsonp, even though multiple formats are supported. Is it possible to set the access-controll header?

Sincerely,
koen

PS: the reason i ask is because i've incorporated the api into a "random char generator" exercise for first year ACS students. | reply

I'm playing shadowrun 5e and I wanted to see if I could use this to do some of the rolling but I'm having trouble getting it to work. I'm getting errors using (count=1 *d6e5). What I'm trying to do is get the system to tell me how many of * d6s are 5 or 6s thus sucesses and how many 1s were rolled so I can see if half or more were ones and thus this roll is a glitch. Eventually I'll also want to have a second one where all 6s are also rolled again for edge tests but one step at a time. | reply

is there a way to roll a large bulk of dice all at once? for example:

I want to roll 10d30 100 times instead of clicking roll 100 times

then I want to "count/or sum up" how many times I rolled 300(all 10 dice on 30) etc? | reply

I forgot my password | reply

I can only save 6 shortcuts for some reason. If I try to create more they will dissappear as soon as I log out or even go to another room. I can update the first 6 but after that it won't work. | reply

Error i get when trying to enter rooms | reply

Hi!

If I were to use Rolz for a PbP game, would our room persist so that we could use it as a neutral base for our rolls? In other words, if a character were to roll initiative, action, effect, could I log into the room two days later to see the results? | reply

yep, servers down | reply

Servers are down. | reply

Cant connect to the dice roller. Keeps going Connecting over and over and over. | reply

my messages arent going through | reply

It is not easy way how to change password for login registration? | reply

can't join or create a room right now :/ it seems like it just refreshes the page | reply

Just found this the other night, and I think its going to be exactly what I've been looking for to run my web games. Thanks for the work on it! | reply

Diceroom's constantly trying to connect but isn't working. | reply

Vedexent is correct. The embedded dice roll syntax doesn't work. It has been broken for quite a while now. Hopefully this is a small error that can be fixed soon. | reply

system dice fail | reply

I'm posting this to agree with Eli below me--not being able to rename myself "GM", or risking any kind of name being password-locked is kind of ridiculous. I love the chat interface and room wiki functions, but am torn between Rolz and Roll20/something else for literally only this reason.

Reducing restrictions to a room-by-room basis (so you can't have 2 people named GM, for example) would make Rolz my first choice for chatroom-based RPing. | reply

Just a heads up that - at least in the lobby - the embedded die roll syntax ( e.g. "This is my D20 roll: [d20]" ) seems to be broken.

Trying to use this syntax causes the system to return no text at all: no speech, no die roll - it just appears that the person has said a blank line. | reply

Hello!

I use this site rather frequently for tabletop games, and while I enjoy the notion of having password protected nicknames, it is growing increasing frustrating to explain to my game masters why my name is not my characters as those names seem to just ever increasingly become password protected. It makes our sessions confusing for identifying who exactly is rolling,

So while the idea is nice, it is also, in my opinion, becoming a a nuisance to try and give yourself a nick for your in game character and the message of password protected keeps popping up. | reply

Hi!
It's a great work, thank you!
Can you create such a success-based dice code, in which we can see how many dice rolled equal to or LOWER than some number? (Maybe with type "U')
Thank you! | reply

I may be missing something, but running the count command seems to display the sum of dice rather than the count of the results specified.

ex. #count=1 10d6 displays the following:
Amras rolls count=1 10d6 = 33 (3 +6 +4 +4 +1 +4 +4 +1 +2 +4) | reply

I cannot get into the dicerooms right now. It keeps attempting to connect. | reply

The inline dice codes seem to be broken. When I post "test [1d100]" I get a blank line in the chat log. e.g. Isaacssv558:

These used to work, so no idea why they don't now. Websockets is working and I tried turning my firewall off, but still no lick. | reply

I want to delete profile and dice room. How can I do that? | reply

We can only save 6 short cuts I would like to be able to save 24 for the game I am playing with a couple friends. | reply

Hi, thats' a great site. Many thaks from me!

But i lack one feature: is there any possibility to send a multi line (with cr/lf) text to the chat? | reply

The bracket "[ ]" Commands wont work, whenever i include them, it ends up a blank post, | reply

What's the link to the IRC server? I'd rather have this handy in my command line than in the browser. | reply

Whenever I try to use brackets to embed rolls in lines of text nothing shows up in the chat other than my name. | reply

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
