@ Chibi Ichigo: If I caught you doing that I would make a rock fall on your head, character dead, new campaign. Don't mess with the DM man, just don't. |

To all those arguing as to whether microwaves heat from the inside or out; you're both wrong because microwaves don't heat the object, they heat the moisture within the object. So an item with moisture on the inside, such as a hot pocket, would heat from the inside out. On the other hand, something with evenly distributed or moisture on the outside would heat from the outside in. Oddly enough, something like vegetable soup would heat up from the inside out because there is less moisture in the veggies than the soup but they get egual doses of energy. Having said that, dice would be unaffected because they don't have any moisture in them. |

its not the plastic inside. its the shape of the die being altered. you just want to slightly melt the die so that the bottom is slightly larger than the rest of the sides, making it more likely to land on that side. it goes from being a cube to more of a pyramid with the top cut off but its so slight that it can't be noticed with the eye. |

Trumple07, you've just insulted someone's intelligence but they're right and you're wrong. That makes you look very silly.
How do you think it works? You're arguing that microwaves heat from the inside out - how? Why do they pass through to the middle and then do something? How do they know where the middle is?
In reality, microwaves of the frequency used in ovens can penetrate up to about 1cm into what you're cooking and they heat from the outside inwards. |

Fated, microwaves heat from the inside out. Thats what microwaves do. Thats probably why your brain isnt working. Its melted inside :/ |

angilion, microwave ovens don't cook from the inside out, so no..
The first words of my short post were these:
Ignoring all the rubbish about the inside melting first
How did you reply to my post without reading it? |

Ignoring all the rubbish about the inside melting first, it still might be just possible if you nuked them for precisely the right amount of time. A very slight change in weight distribution caused by a slight sagging might be enough to bias the dice to some extent without being visible.
I hope Darkblitz9 does his experiments, because I'm curious enough to want to know the results but not curious enough to do it myself. |

Pink, have you ever heated a large bowl of anything in the microwave? The outside is hot but the inside is still cold, microwaves do no heat from the inside. |

if it does work, it would work better in a microwave, wouldnt it? that way the inside cooks first..?
i dunno. i dont think this would work at all. i melted a lot of plastic sh*t by accident when i was a kid. |

Obviously not going to work. The plastic is the same, inside and out. Just like any object, the outside heats up first. So the outside surface will "melt and sink to the bottom" before the inside will! |

I just tried this... I don't know if I have the wrong type of dice or something, but they just melted into a white puddle and stuck to my best cookie sheet...
Not cool IAB... |
