Derive II

First, roll a die.
1-3=left
4-6=right

Roll the die at least 30 times and record the direction the die chose for you.

Drive in your car. Listen to the radio.
(*be sure to change the station every time you hear a commercial)
Every time the song changes, turn left or right according to what you have recorded.

Enjoy the ride =)

Street Names


Chance System:

First, roll two dice
     2=A
     3=B
     4=C
     5=D
     6=E
     7=F
     8=G
     9=H
   10=I
   11=J
   12=K

Roll the dice at least ten times and record the letters the dice have chosen for you.

Roll one die
  1-3=left
  4-6=right

Roll the dice another ten times (or the same amount of times you rolled the dice the first time, if more than ten) and record the corresponding directions next to your letters.


Sidenote: Living in Parkmerced, I've noticed that most of the street names begin with a letter in the first half of the alphabet. Therefore, I decided to use dice to randomly choose a letter.


Second, walk around Parkmerced.
The first time you see a street sign with a name beginning with the first letter on your list, turn the corresponding direction.
And so on.
(Of course, you don't have to walk around Parkmerced. You can go wherever you heart desires.)


Sidenote2: If you don't have dice, use 12 playing cards. Or Google "virtual dice." Or do anything else you can think of =)


This derive may or may not make you go crazy. Walking in circles will happen. So, to make it more interesting, pick the first flower you see every time you take a turn. At the end, you'll have a wonderful bouquet =)


Here's my system (for example):
C      L
B      L
G      L
H      R
H      L
F      R
J       L
F      L
I       R
C      L
