REQ: Dice

REQ: Dice

alt.ascii-art · 6 messages · 26 Mar 1997 - 12 Oct 2005
I would like to know if anyone out there has an ascii pic of a pair
of dice?  I would actually like a few to choose from, in a range of
sizes, but please, keep it down to less then about 15 lines...:)

Thank in advance,

Useful college courses our kids could take: _Jogging for Bodies_ (Five hours)
A fun approach to physical fitness in which warm-ups are eliminated and the
emphasis is on meeting men/women.  Applicants should be able to talk and jog
at the same time.                              -Erma Bombeck

Hmm..  There was so much movement that the three, normally opposite the 
four, was jarred adjacent.   ;o)    Still, nice ascii.

                (( _______
      _______     /\O    O\
     /O     /\   /  \   O  \

SO!!  You wanna be nitpicky!  ;-)

Then you might notice that your two dice are in the wrong orientation.

 \|/  .-~~~-.  \|/
 -O- ( o | o ) -O-
   \  \ .-. /  /
    \  `-U-'  /
     \/     \/

A proper standard die has the 1,2,3 going in anti-clockwise order
when seen from straight on.  HAH!   So...

                 (( _______
       _______     /\O    O\
      /O    0/\   /  \      \
     /      /O \ / O  \O____O\ ))
  ((/0____O/    \\    /O    O/
    \O    O\    / \  /  ()  /
     \O    O\ O/   \/O____O/
      \O____O\/ ))          ))

Darn, you got me on that one!  I knew there was a specific order, but 
couldn't find a die to compare to..  I did know that opposite sides 
totaled seven; that was an easy one to catch.
