Hussar's latest activity

Really? You think that the notion of simulation doesn't include any idea that how a result was determined should be part of a...

Ok, yes, I know I'm being annoying. But, I'm keeping my idiocy confined to one thread, I'm not spreading it anywhere and it's just...

Sorry, but, I don't find, "Make anything up after the fact" to be a particularly useful definition of simulation. 🤷

Again, though, it's not 100% certainty we're looking for. That's the red herring you guys have added to the conversation. That any...

Oh, wait a minute. I was told in NO UNCERTAIN TERMS that the d20 ONLY represents skill. No luck at all. So, now, which is it?

Yes, absolutely. So, now we KNOW why you failed. If you roll higher than 9, you straight up failed because you were not skilled...

Where does the information come from though? Where does the information about how you missed come from? You don't know that you missed...

Ok, you want dueling quotes? Fair enough. Page 10 2024 PHB: Note, at no point is the d20 roll actually defined. At no point does...

But it's still missing the point. We KNOW what the character's skill is. So, any roll below that skill succeeds because of skill. The...

So every single cue you use is absolutely true? Every single table you play on is brand new, virgin felt that has never been played on...

Really? The only reason you missed the shot is because you didn't hit the cue right? There is no other possible explanation? But...

I'm really, really tired of arguing with people about mechanics of games they obviously don't play. Reread the quoted section above...

Wow. Just how much straw are you piling on there. What mechanics are you referring to? Can you give me an example of a mechanic like...

I think this is an excellent point. How can something be diegetic in the game world if time runs backward? If the justification occurs...

I'm not Hussar, but no, that would not pass muster for me. By that standard, everything is always diegetic so long as we can...
