I roll Search, Spot, Listen and Sense Motive in secret, because even knowing how high a roll was might give away something. The same would apply e.g. to craft skills where the PCs don't have time to test out their construction before using it. But they can roll Bluff or Diplomacy themselves, as...

Move Silently is probably also part of your movement. At least this is how I ruled it recently (for an invisible PC trying not to be heard in combat), because I couldn't find any rule to the contrary.

OOC: AFAIK you lose only one rank, even if you lose to a lower ranking fighter. What bothers me is that a WB seems to be limited to fighting other WBs. The old game already suffered from to small a fighter base, so this is not going to help. Before 2.0 I did not mind taking on a fighter of tier...

OOC: But the ability to buy an immunity when it suited him was one of the things that made the old sash so broken! And now they gave it to a 2nd tier fighter as a "once per match"?! Under the old rules, a white belt could take on a blue belt with a reasonable chance of winning (ok, Berandor...

OOC: What is that supposed to do? Now the day's style is cherry blossum and my move is lent greater weight?! From the YB 2.0 rules: Edit: Allright, it works with Holy Warrior. Duh! I thought the new rules were supposed to be more balanced than the old:(

Where does it say that an immunity is granted? From the YB 2.0 rules: All this allows you is to lend greater weight to your own move by matching the day's style with it. Edit: I see your point now, as it works together with Holy Warrior. This is quite powerful, I must say... As far as I...

"Coward! Send big spider to fight Gorm, than fly away! Pah!" Gorm flexes his arms and draws a deep breath with both throats. This looks quite comical, as it seems to be a crude imitation of the cherry blossum relaxation technique employed by monks of the western province. Certainly not...

"Hmm. Being female fighter means one less hurty spot..." "Now shut up and squash this bug! Why did you let him go, anyway, he?" A guilty expression appears on Gorm's right face, to be quickly replaced by anger. "Aaaaahhh!" The ogre approaches Kalanyr with great bounding leaps, like a gorilla...

The bald head looks at the piece of gum sticking to Gorm's torso with a frown: "You know, this is kinda unhygienic! My name is still Gorm, not germ..." But the other half of the oger is above such considerations. He celebrates the point (or gum?) and the good squashing he gave Kalanyr by...

Gorm booms triumphantly at Kalanyr after managing to pin him to the ground with his big hands: "Gotcha, thief! Gorm gonna make little hole in the ground with you!" The oger lowers the uglier of his two heads to get a closer peek at his opponent, baring his yellowish fangs with a malicious...

OOC: Hmm, I just realized that sigs are gone, too (they were still there yesterday, when I posted my challenge). So for the record (as if you hadn't guessed), Gorm is White Belt (0:0), with no abilities or possessions. BIC: "Stop weaselling around and fight! I don't care for the dog, so we...

OOC: Since the avatars have been turned off, this match is quite ironic and possibly pointless. But this is the spirit that made this game great:D So let's get started! BIC: The ogre eyes you suspiciously - apparently neither head is willing to believe that this puny, seemingly fragile creature...

BUMP!

Congrats, Kalanyr! In case you haven't noticed yet: I challenged you over the Dogbert avatar thing. I'd be really grateful if you accepted before advancing another tier;) Challenge can be found here.

Glad to see Zarathud hasn't been forgotten:D Berandor, is there a way to close the poll? I voted before reading the rest of the thread and finding out that it was in vain:(

OOC: This is it! The long awaited match to decide who may continue using the Dogbert avatar. So if Kalanyr agrees to this fight, the loser has to choose another picture. Gorm Twoface It is early afternoon in this tiny village in the foothills of the Troll Mountains. The sky is blue, not a...

Gorm Twoface A two-headed, 3 m tall ogre with bluish skin, clad in decaying animal hides. Gorm's right head features long, unkempt hair and an expression of perpetual anger and stupidity. His left head, the smart one, is bald, but sports a carefully trimmed goatee. His main occupation so far is...

That remains to be seen! By one day only (Jan 18th for you, Jan 19th for me according to profile information), unless the different time zones we are in do weird things to the calendar. And how long have you been a DNRC member? I wonder if we could get Scott Adams to judge;)

I'd like to start playing again after the reset, provided I can figure out how the new rules work;) I won't bother with a separate ID like on the old boards ("Zarathud"), though. My post count will thank me for that:p PS: I might have to fight Kalanyr for the right to use the Dogbert avatar...

Re: Misread the Title How about "Apply your negative Int penalty as a bonus to all saving throws"? I mean, how smart are worshippers of the God of Stupidity supposed to be? :D
