Have YOU ever wanted to mix your twin loves of Curling and polyhedral dice?

No?!  Well, too bad!  Because THAT IS WHAT WE ARE DOING NOW.

See if you can get a TOP SCORE before the snark of this D20 shatters your mind with its Vicious Mockery mostly tame oblique criticism of your technique.

Just don't roll a 1, right?

I'm not a true Canadian, just an imported European, so that may be why I'm STILL not able to score! I clearly need to get more time on the ice. Good job capturing the feel of a curling game with, uh, a polyhedral die!

All Canadians in Canada are Canadian, Akz! I’m pretty sure I’m Canadian, too… and I’m an American! (At least I sometimes WISH I were Canadian anyway.)

If you wait for the power bar, a “high-middle” or max power push is best for initial velocity. Try to keep your “stone” centered in the lane on launch, but you can finesse it a bit (not really realistic, but - hey - it’s a video game) with some sweeping off to one side or the other.

And - if you blow by the target because your sweeping was TOO AMAZING… KEEP SWEEPING! You might rebound into the target zone after all!

That's more or less what I thought I was doing but I'm pretty sure it's a skill issue :D

As a true syrup-blooded Canadian, there is nothing I would appreciate more.

YES! FLAWLESS VICTORY!

I knew I could count on Canada! Don’t listen to any of those other stupid Americans (just this one): Canadians are among the very best of us!

(Especially because of the syrup blood… y’all will be our salvation when we start eating each other in the coming apocalypse.) ^_~

Comedy aside though, thanks for posting the epic win. Well curled, my Northern friend!

How do you even get close?

Sweep! ^_^

If you click/tap (and hold, if you need to maintain velocity) ahead of the die, velocity decreases more slowly. A bit of lateral motion is possible as well.

Thanks Man, I got my first score as soon as I read your reply, really helped.

Excellent! Thanks for playing my silly game!
