uhhh you can see there are gaps between some faces and there arent on others, so it really isnt well balanced
edit: i somehow typed f`ces
Oh yeah u right, i didnt even look that close. I just assumed nobody would create such an asymmetrical atrocity. I can never look at golf balls the same. Not that i do ever look at them.

But as long as all the faces are the same size, and the die never lands on the gaps (or is rerolled if it does), would that be a fair die?
Unless some numbers are opposite of a gap, then it could never land with that number facing up.
Each side needs an opposing flat part, and I don't think that can happen with a die with an odd number of sides.
