With a dice, without dice switch can you force all six numbers?
I would like to see that. Is there an uncut video where that can be seen? Darko |

Sure, it looks good. But the fact that it has to be rolled in a receptacle is a definite drawback.

Yes I think I could come up with some uses for this and yes it does look good

As someone who has used RDR in nearly every show for three years MY EXPERIENCE has not been 100%. Sometimes it is user error, sometimes battery related, other times distance or participants who simply will not follow carefully crafted instructions. I LOVE RDR but nothing is perfect.
My point is - asking whether something is 100% is pointless IMHO... Murphy will eventually make his appearance even on sure-fire techniques. Back to the discussion at hand though - this release looks quite promising for certain situations. Best, Drew

If it is what I think it is, then it doesn't need a receptacle.

Nothing that is digging for clues because I'm sure I already know what this is, but Dominic hasn't answered either of them. If it can be rolled without needing a receptacle - I'm in. But he hasn't answered either of these. I'm asking because I have a very specific use in mind. |

I saw a review somewhere on this around 6 weeks ago which was rather disappointing, however I can’t think for the life of me where now. Olly

If you are table-hopping, or performing anywhere with real people out enjoying themselves... Trust me.. You will want spectators to throw the die into a receptacle... I'm someone who has had to crawl under a table of guests to recover a leather chop cup ball... It's not a good look...

Also my statement seems pretty clear - 60 minutes of checking the right answer. Don't know any magic electronic product which is not 100%. Anyway the answer was "it works every time" so will see if it is right. |

Well, ok. But that's still not answering my question. It's a simple question Dominic. Does it HAVE to be used in a receptacle? I'd like to get this if it can be used without such a thing.

Is the cube (die) available using, what I would call, a normal looking cube that has a 2-spot on the diagonal vs. horizontal..... and, hopefully, the Ace-spot can be the same size as all the other spots ????
In this way the die can look more like an American cube ?

Funny it is called "Winners Dice" when a single cube is called a "die" and not "dice"
Should be called "Winners Die".

I think this looks pretty cool and I can think of several different uses for it. For me, having to throw it in a cup/receptacle isn't a problem. I think I will wait until I see a review or two before deciding on it. I had a lot of fun with Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals so I've got enough to practice for the time being.

Receptacle 100% yes, my real die was one the first and I always put new CR2032 batteries in the thumper every single gig so it’s impossible to fail only the performer him or herself can screw it up. The batteries would last 6 months but I don’t ever take risks and I have never ever named the incorrect number truly ever. Olly

Winners die would not be the greatest name to sell a product imo, the reason the word dice is used is because it can give you any number of 6 which makes it more than just singular in its results. Olly
