Roll a D6

Loved the video and, on a good night, this is what its all about - the DM and the players buying into the game and having a good time.

It was made that way to rhyme with the original song, "Like a G6."

I've been spreading this around my gaming friends for a few days, and they're all laughing a lot from it. I got at least one person to fall off his chair. :)

I was just waiting for this to show up :p

Great video though. My sister-in-law heard this playing and immediately said "Are you listening to a song about DND?"

Ahh...I strongly suspected it was a parody but could not figure out what it was a parody of...now thanks to Google and the term G6 I know. Got to say I think Like a D6 is better.

And common sense but that's a totally different conversation.

P.S. Watched roll a d6 listened to roll a d6 loved roll a d6 .


I'm glad I didn't come across this until I got to work this morning. Very funny. Of course, I'm cleaning up the coffee I just spewed. Very nice. I'm saving that link to chow it to my group.

WotC posted an interview with the creator. The inspiration was apparently conflict resolution. Essentially the video's creator wanted to do something with his character, the DM expressed skepticism that it was legal, creator insists that its within the rules and the DM resolves the issue with 'Roll a D6' (presumably high 50% of the die and the ruling goes in the players favour low and it goes in the DMs favour - I do this myself sometimes as a DM). Creator does so but now he has "Roll a D6" to the tune of "Like a G6" stuck in his head and the rest is, as they say, history.
