I know T&T is still there: http://www.flyingbuffalo.com, but I never got
into Shadowrun. What's a shame is it looks like T&T hasn't been developed in
years, FBI has been doing play by mail. I'm kind of sad I learned that, I
might have to jump in a game.

Ah, yes. I made two characters from the first edition rule book (I think it
was first edition) and nobody was interested in playing, but punching
someone for 10d6 was certainly an attractive prospect.

But I'm being flippant, in this context you are of course quite correct.
Singular is Die, the plural is Dice.... How about many small groups of dice
?
...
What's the plural of Mongoose ?
Mongooses?
Mongi?
My vote goes for Polygeese.

Shadowrun is still out, too. Fasa is dying these days AFAIK but Fanpro here
in Germany seems to be interested in developing Shadowrun in the future. We
have a more or less fixed group playing the second edition every two or
three month for two days. Now that we are all in our thirties it is
sometimes real hard to find a free weekend (and with a priest working almost
every Sunday it is even harder).

I managed to get a 75+50 point character up to a 14d6 attack. But it
took some doing.
But this is getting off topic, so I think I'll call a halt here :)
Bye for now,

'he dies with death' surely !
Mongeese sounds more likely but my Psion Scrabble doesn't accept this and
insists that it is Mongooses.
In my search for plurals without a singular I have so far only come up with
"Hustings" - anyone got any others.

Thief, I was going to do dice for my next image.
Nice work, I like stuff like this, simple and colourful.
