Wow I've actually picked up some good ideas from this thread...

1 - 27 Black dice for CCW's and 3 for PW's. Not a bad idea.
2 - Pink bitch dice

If people forget to bring a proper template, i let them use my blank-cd-seperator template (which coincidentally is just a little smaller than a real one... if you don't have the gear, you should be at a disadvantage )

As for my dice... In friendly games at home or local club, I don't mind. At a store or tourney, I wouldn't go ape over it but it would be a bit weird if someone just reached out end grabbed my dice box.

It's bad luck to roll my dice. That is all.

Unless you play Eldar. Eldar players rolling your dice fill them with luck.

I cant believe people wont let other people use there dice.

There just dice man. They cost like what $20 dollars for a bunch, they not valuable. Are you that superstitous? Isnt superstion a joke to get a laugh, no one believes that surely.

I have been blessed in my gaming life to never have met/played such oddballs.

When I'm playing with friends, I usually just roll whatever dice are closest. When I'm playing at a tournament or something, I try to just roll my dice, unless my opponent rolls mine. If they roll mine, then I assume it's cool for me to roll theirs, so I start rolling whatever dice are closest. I've never had any problems so far.

I don't care if someone rolls my dice, so long as I get them back and they ask first (it's my stuff after all). As far as using others' asking is only polite.

It's always best to ask first.. I'm surprised that so many people have forgotten the simple formalities of consideration. I'm usually going to say yes, but if you don't ask and just grab, well, you deserve the verbal assault you will receive from me..

The attached audio clip says it all.

If they ask first, however, I'm okay with it.
It shows that they recognize that they must be subservient to me and, therefore, outweights any negative dice karma that comes with handling my bones.

You should be courteous and respectful about another person's stuff, especially if you're not playing with close friends, but yes, gamers as a whole NEED TO LIGHTEN UP. But the reality is that you're never going to be able to convince some to keep things in perspective.

I keep all my dice stacked. If the other player wants to roll some of them they should ask politely first.

hell is freezing over, I actually agree with Blow Fly for once.

If I roll hot and my opponent asks to use my dice to make their saves I typically let them once. Past that I ask that they don't because I have a lot of dice from other gaming clubs or store promotions and I'd rather not lose them.

I don't like using other peoples dice. I don't like using other people's dice. I don't like my dice touching their dice. When I find dice that aren't mine in my dice bag or in my warhammer box, I ask people if they know who's dice they are. If I don't find an owner I discard them, because they aren't my dice. I always keep my dice in a group on my side of the table... I collect them as soon as I finish rolling and we both saw the results. There are some people around here that just grab dice and roll them, and I hate that.

I've been using the same green dice basically since I started playing warhammer. All of the gold paint in the pips has worn off and so now you have to look really hard to tell which number they landed on. They're my special dice that only I can see and always roll well... its not suspicious! Everyone tells me to get new dice. I refuse, since those wouldn't be my dice.

Ok, I'll ask the obvious question.. if new dice aren't your dice, how did these green dice get to be yours? if new dice = not your dice, did these come out of an orafice? (yeah, I'm being cheeky, I'm just pointing out your irony here.)

I sometimes imagine my ballsack as a crown royale bag that keep two D100s in I've even painted it purple on occasions and just like sitting there rolling my lucky balls in my hand and then shaking and rolling my dice with my other; its a really good synergistic exercise of positive energy. I reccomend everyone try it.

Basically your gonna need to handle my balls before you roll my dice.

Sounds sexy.. I just hope their not prone to misfire dice or scatter dice are involved. then it gets unsexy.
