January 24th, 1951
On this date famed science fiction writer Isaac Asimov completes the short story "I, Dicebot ", a continuation of his " I, Robot " series of stories. I, Dicebot was a story about a robot that would pick up and roll dice for gamers ensuring random rolling and no player manipulation of the dice. His idea of the Dicebot came from his research into ideas about robots throughout history. During his investigations he came across drawings and a manuscript by Leonardo Davinci that described a dice rolling mechanism that consisted of a mechanical arm and hand. Davinci was an avid gamer considered by many to be the best Advanced Cohort Leader player of the Renaissance.
Asimov was deeply disappointed when I, Dicebot was rejected for publication. It was felt to be too fanciful and farfetched of a concept even for one of the greatest sci-fi writers of all time.
