I've never actually had to roll a d4 on a table. Baldur's Gate handles it for me.
This is the way
I don't get what this means, roll on top or bottom of what?
There are 2 kinds of D4 dice. The result can be on the bottom or on the top of the "piramid".
...well, there are more than two kinds of d4s, but there are two popularly-styled tetrahedral d4s...
GURPS for the win, bell curves are the way to go.
FATE will still get ya!
Arch d4 gang
d8s with duplicate sides gang
Flipping a coin two times and reading the result as binary gang. (Don't actually do this, coins aren't as fair)
They're only off by about 1% and the bias depends on which side was up, it's not that bad. I wouldn't expect most inexpensive dice to be substantially fairer than that.
Would spinning the coin get rid of that bias?
I have not read any stats on coin spinning, so I don't know!
I suppose it's basically flipping turned 90 degrees, so it might still be affected but which face is forward when being spun.
