Hi, it wasn't you, it was me. :-)
I used to have support for 6 and 7 word wordlists, but removed them awhile ago because some of the words in them were hardly used in the English language, and I felt that password creation with those words would make passwords harder to remember and potentially alienate users of the app.
But while I removed code for those word lists, I forgot to update the index.html, so that's 100% on me, sorry about that! I just pushed out an update to https://diceware.dmuth.org/ that explains why those wordlists are no longer supported in my Diceware implementation.
Best,

Hi, no problem, thank you for the clarification! Do you think it might be a good idea to also display some kind of warning or error when someone uses ?dice=6 or ?dice=7 (or even any ?dice=*), in case someone is used to doing that and doesn't read the rest of the page anymore? Thanks again!
Hello, I tried the 6 and 7 dice options (?dice=6 and ?dice=7) on Firefox and Edge on Windows. The animations for both still show 5 dice, and the words generated all appear to be contained in the 5 dice EFF list. Is it user error, an issue with my environment, or a bug? Thanks.
