Sorta funny.  I know at least one person that does each one of these things.<br \/>\nThere isn&#8217;t any entry for Jackie&#8217;s hitch, though &#8212; she won&#8217;t let the GM touch her dice while she&#8217;s playing.  In my case, that means I can&#8217;t touch them even if we&#8217;re on the way to a game that I&#8217;m going to run &#8212; I&#8217;m &#8216;already the GM&#8217; at that point.  GM&#8217;s touching the dice corrupts &#8216;mission&#8217; of the dice and they roll well only from the GM&#8217;s perspective at that point.  Any corrupted dice must immediately be removed from the table and, when stored, have to be quarantined from the others.<br \/>\nConversely, if we&#8217;re both players at a table, I can use them all they like.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Strong Probability: the RPGA guys ran a poll on common dice superstitions.
