Not 100% sure where I should have put this, but I'm sure I'm safe in here.

Inspired by a thread some time ago about biased dice, I made an excel document that would let you put in die rolls, and you could determine if you had a bad die, as well as the degree to which it is bad. If anyone is interested, let me know!

How many rolls do you need to do to check this?

At a minimum, 20 per face. In the file, I link to a paper that was written by a gentleman regarding this subject back in the mid-90's. So I basically took his explanations of the chi-squared test and the kolmogorov-smirnov test and put them into Excel. I have a worksheet for each die (4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 20) and you just make a crap load of rolls for the die you want to test.
