In the description of the Turn Action Seed, within the text
Randomly select a cell by rolling a DICE10 DICE10 and using the first value for the column and second value for the row
swap “column” and “row”.
Well the cells are labeled cell-ROW-COLUMN, so if I roll DICE10 DICE10 and get 9 1, it makes more sense to me to search for cell-9-1 than cell-1-9.
or you can just find the 9th group and then take the first row there
Yeah, I’m sure I’d get used to it soon enough; it just goes against my first impression when I see the dice roll.
if the cell-ROW-COLUMN thing is really bothering people we can just update the template so that it goes cell-COLUMN-ROW

row-column order feels far more intuitive

why? the grid is arranged in columns, so finding the column that corresponds to the first roll and then find the row from there feels like it makes more sense to me than the other way around
