I just realized something reading the last, well, lots of posts on the granularity of resolution.I am a fan of Pass/Fail systems! I am okay with adding Fumble and Super Duper Awesome Pass to either end of the scale, but I prefer Pass/Fail over more granular systems. I think it has alot to do with how and when I call for rolls and how I result stuff. I don't know all the proper language so if this makes no sense I apologize.If a player rolls and succeeds, I always frame the result as a complete success. The reason I do so is that I feel that anything other than a complete success is me as GM being mean and robbing the player of their victory. Why I feel I need to do this is because I only call for rolls when a complete failure would also be an interesting result. If neither, or both, complete success or complete failure is not an interesting result, then I simply tell the player they automatically succeed or fail. Thus far I haven't had too many fits of rage from players as I am very prone to auto-pass, and almost never auto-fail. I'm probably a super pushover GM I guess, I just like to see the PCs be awesome and make the players happy. Anyway, I'm prepared to get flamed to death now...let it begin!!!</blockquote>
