How many dice could he roll?

IIRC he could handle 1 or 2 at a time, D10s and D20s though. This being CP2020, there was no need for vast shoeboxes of dice to be rolled. One D10 usually did the trick. Check the exact numbers with Ezra when he gets back.

Plastic's on the money, although I have seen him roll 6 d10's.....took a big of flexing to pick 'em all up, but hey....

There is nothing scarier than a cyberpunk GM quietly rolling 10 after 10 after 10 as he open-ends his way to the target number of 53 to ricochet a bullet into your unprotected throat, all the while smoking with one hand, and drinking with the other.

Disturbing.

The real downside to your tactic is that the players will go off to the toilet, play PS 2 games, eat a pizza... ie totally ignore you. We did that to one GM who did that, he begged us to stop.

When I ran live games, if my players did those things, I'd reply by doing stuff like locking them in the bathroom, unplugging the TV, taking the food away... basically screw with them for my own amusement.

I only ever get to GM online, now...

Edit:

My methods of die punishment were a slingshot if I didn't feel like putting effort into it, or getting a bat and using one as a tiny little baseball.
