Thank the gods. This thread had devolved into Bad Film School 101.

Is it possible the boxes were manufactured separately from the actual game books? Boxes ready but not the content? Because there's one flipped over that looks empty.

Which still tells me zip about context and intended use, or even what you're looking for feedback on. You must have some overall vision of the goal of this mechanic, and/or the type of system or game you'd use it in. All you initially presented was: a value Rank (R), a value Level (L), and a...

It's not about the data. We still don't have a good explanation of how this gets applied in practice in whatever RPG this is intended to be used in. So far it's just about probability distributions. Like saying d20 has 5% chance x Number rolled of rolling that Number or below. That tells me...

Clones? Are they trying to make this a Paranoia knock-off too?

Any response you get is going to be an opinion. Don't just wave people off this way when you're getting what you asked for. (At least that what I take from your use of the "Review" tag: Please review my system. Usually, it's used when the original poster is reviewing a published product.)...

Metaphorical stiches, in this case. I.e., lawsuit damages, kicked out of the Dungeon Hobby Shop attic. Though the use of the phrase really doesn't fit the context here.

I can’t help but wonder if the COVID case itself is real, or just an excuse to get out of trying to run a non-existent adventure for a non-existent RPG for a convention whose existence is also questionable

I think we're drifting into dangerous waters here commenting on people's mental health, but remember, "legal insanity" has a very specific meaning. His lawyer would have to demonstrate that he truly didn't understand what he was doing was wrong. Given his attempted legal contortions and doing...

I think that's a net increase in the odds

Wait... it starts out specifically addressing people working for WotC, with a secondary "and all others concerned." So are WotC employees Tenkarpians? Is Tenkar the secret mastermind behind this whole lawsuit designed to end NuTSR? Behind the entire WotC Empire?!? I knew it!

That’s not what “Ernie” is saying in that post. It’s just explaining the difference between a for-profit and non-profit museum, with the implication that they are running the Dungeon Hobby Shop as the latter. There’s no declaration there. Of course, addressing the clarification to WotC...

Yeah, but those are usually criminal cases depicted in TV and movies; civil cases are often handled differently.

Given everything we've seen, I don't think he took anything into consideration, or only considered the things that would be part of him winning the case, such is his blind ego.

I think you meant "fleshed out" there, but when we're talking about NuTSR, "flushed out" works perfectly fine too!

Laughing all the way to the bank . . . ruptcy.

Thanks for the breakdown, Snarf. Seems like things will reach a decisive moment in the near future. As entertaining as this whole NuTSR debacle has been, I won't be sorry to see all of it reduced to a gaming footnote with no further mention of the instigators ever again.

Well, I said you could argue it's parody and therefore fair use. I didn't say you'd win :p
