Sometimes I can tell when my current DM fudges a roll to miss an attack or reduce damage. He has a tell in the specific way he pauses and breathes before announcing the roll, then tries to hurry to the next turn, which only seems to happen when someone is in a life-or-death scenario, but "luckily" survives.

Should I let him know he has a tell? Will it be less fun (or more stressful) for him if he knows I know?

Wait, so every table you've had has been fine with you fudging dice? That's honestly wild to me.

In 22 years and close to probably 100 games that I have ran, not once have I been aske not to fudge. But also, I've not been asked to reveal when I do. Which is actually pretty rare. I've probably only fudged maybe a dozen rolls in that time.

That's seriously crazy to me! Wow. It's one of the things I would definitely say 'do not do' if a GM asked me that. Obviously I know everyone doesn't feel as I do, I'm just surprised that in so long, no one has really cared.

Shouldn't be downvoted just for liking things differently.
