anyone have any experience with this? i've been thinking about trying it out, but I have a few questions:

should I have a dedicated coin, or will any coin do?

if I do have a dedicated coin should one side of the coin be evil?

how should I handle decisions that have 3 or more solutions?

I believe that the only way you can answer these questions is by a simple coin flip.

the coin says I shouldn't use a coin to make important decisions.

i've never been so confused in all my life.
