Rules N' Such!

Dice Rolls: We will use the built-in rpol dice roller. I am usually a rules light GM, meaning that if I think your character can do something easily I will not ask you to roll. If the outcome is uncertain or if it is an opposed roll versus another Pc (or Npc) I will ask for a roll.


Posting
Now this is a game, not your life, so as long as you post three to four times a week that is fine by me. If you find the game entertaining (which I hope you do!) & wish to post more often please feel free. If you are to be away for an extended period of time and/ or without Internet access please drop me a PM.

If real life rears its ugly head or you lose interest in the game that is fine by me as well, however, if you could please let me know so I may find a replacement player I would appreciate it greatly.

Now as far as posting itself:

I would like you to post in third person past tense if you would. Some people like to use a colored type to represent their speech/ dialogue. That is fine but not necessary. All thoughts should be in Italics though.

I want everyone to have fun & do not expect long posts every time, but please try to refrain from the over use of one line posts where appropriate. Also, everyone should have access to a spell checker or at least a dictionary. Try to avoid spelling errors when possible.


OOC: This thread should be used to discuss Out of character & out of game material. Please use it in this manner. If you have an Out of Character question pertaining to the current thread & your character please do so at the end of the thread like the example below:

OOC: Alan rolled a 18 on his attack with his hunting knife!
Damage 4 points.

I want everyone to have fun & enjoy themselves. Please respect each other & me. If anyone has a problem please PM the party along with myself & we will work things out. Just keep it civil & we will have no problems.

Well that is about it. If something comes up I will handle in game. If you have any questions please drop me a PM. Cheers

Rules N' Such!

For Arm Wrestling-

Wanted your impute Dev!

Which Method would you prefer-

Method One

Add your strength plus the result of a roll a d20 or 3d6 the highest total wins.

OR

Method Two

Roll a d20 under your strength. Whoever roll s under their strength by the greatesr amounts wins.

Example-
Dev has a 18 strength a rolls a 5- 18-5= 13
Snow Barbarian has a strength of 16 and rolls a 4- 16-4= 12
Dev still beat her by 1 so he would win. Rolling over your strength means the other side wins. If there is a tie or both roll over the contest goes on for another round.

Let me know which of the 2 you like better or if you use another method. Can discuss in OOC thread. Cheers
