The ancient Greeks and Romans used dice made of bone and ivory which were inherently white for those reasons. Stating the usage of a white die to be indicative of racism is the epitome of an oxymoron. ;-)

I might be a racist, because sometimes I wish my white die was my ROF die.

If you used the white die, you are a racist.
But what if you used the red one?

An Indian, a Native American, or for the purposes of ASL, possibly a British colonial subject, a redneck?

I dare not ponder the black one, which might better be called the colored die, perhaps, despite neither white nor black being colors.

AZslim, we gotta face it:
There ain't no way outta this swamp. Even if you would use a pink die, someone would probably call you a swine. :D

Yes it is. But I think I will start posting other worthless topics:

* Guys, I scratched my butt today. What do you think about that? What scenario should it be called?
I reckon that thread would probably exceed two pages (i.e. this one up to now).

Due to the nature of animal eyes:
White is all colours. In RGB notation 255,255,255 or FF,FF,FF in hexadecimal.
Black is no colours. In RGB notation 0,0,0.

RGB is closest to how a human eye perceive colours while CYMK is designed for printing using colour absorbing inks.

1st one posted is good, Thank you
Although I consider asking for a dr for an ASL game to determine sides (likely for a tourney) more on topic and related to ASL than probably a majority of the postings on this forum, here is a weblink done recently by a fellow ASLer for die rolls. Works nicely, and I have taken to using this for determining sides when myself and my opponent can't get online/face2face anytime soon. It uses Random.org for the roll(s), and sends the result to email addresses that you list.

Here is the GS thread that inspired the weblink:
