I'm not yet added to the FB group and I'm not sure how active this one is, but I wanted a reminder: the con book doesn't seem to mention whether DMs are rolling all the dice or whether players should bring dice.
It seems there are a lot of conditions in 5e where you kind of need to know the results of your rolls to decide what action to take, for example whether to use the Lucky ability or choosing between your rolls for advantage, etc.
Just thought it might be a FAQ and didn't want to show up without if I needed them on the assumption things were still like the days of yore.

I'm not on Feb at all, and while I'm just an attendee, I'll be happy to speak up.

This is my third year. So far, my experience has been that some GMs want the players to roll, some don't; of course, some things the player rolls for usually, and some rolls are always by the GM. I have always brought my dice, since they're small and don't take up a lot of space, and that way I have them if the GM permits. (And I don't have to remember to put them back in my bag afterwards. :) )

Looking forward to the weekend! /amq

Yes, this.  As GM, I'm bringing enough dice for the table and will let players roll.

Greg,

In general players will be expected to roll their own.
