I reguraly play Role-Playing-Games. There are dices invloved A D4 (a 4-sided dice) A D6 (The "normal dice") A D8 (a 8-sided dice) A d12 (a 12 sided dice) A d20 (a 20 sided dice) Thes have all regular shapes (latin names tertaaeder, octaeader, etc.) But we also have D10 (a ten sided dice) and a D30 (a thirty sided dice). These have a irregular shape (D10 looks like a D8 but has 10 sides(5 up and 5 down) isstead of 8 (4 up and 4 down) Is it true that the regular shped dices are more random than the irregular shaped dices. And why is that so?
