[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 7585065, member: 7006"] Yes, precisely. I didn't make my post so that others could fix my faulty math. I put forth my post so as to tell people who would be interested that what I was doing was succeeding in[I] what I was hoping to have occur[/I]. When another person then shows up to claim that oh no... what I am doing to hopefully accomplish what I want [I]is not actually[/I] accomplishing what I want... then goes on a long dissertation to illustrate it, but end up illustrating something that *isn't* what I was trying to accomplish... I of course will look at the post funny. What did you expect? If people want go over the math and see how 2d10 compares to 1d20 for all manner of DCs and rolls for just a general discussion of whether it could work for more people or the average table... hey, go nuts! But just don't try and simultaneously claim that the results for what *I'm* looking for are wrong. Especially if your proofs are for something completely different. It's the reason why I tried to be very clear in my posts to state what *I* personally was looking to do, and how the results worked *for me*. And if you don't want your comments about it critiqued or looked at askew... just make sure you also be very clear in stating you're taking the convo in a different direction and are going to discuss 2d10 vs 1d20 in general and not about my specific situation. You do that, and no one will say anything. ;) [/QUOTE]
