[QUOTE="pollico, post: 6683884, member: 6799821"] Bla bla bla. Water Bob, you haven't changed your speech in all your post, just spamming the same inconsistent crap. "In most roleplayers eyes", yes... Because you have met everybody around the world... Let me ask a question to you: how can a pj know how many hit points he has, or the level of a creature? That's, strictly talking, meta-game stuff, you know... The bad meta-gaming is the one which is used to take advantaje of a knoledge that ha chararter should't have, and he uses it to its advantaje. This ISN'T meta-game. By the way, this doesn't penalize anybody for being heroic, you can charge to the front and strike with might without it. But maybe your enemies are stronger than you, you lack certain skill or simply you need to make certain things faster. Your'e not penalized for nothing, its a pulp trope build into the system: when something good (for the protagonist) happens, then its going to get worse.... Until the " bad luck" ends and he save the day. Its always an up\down narrative. If you think for a moment, its the same system of Luck Points presents in a lot of games. The GM don't need this system at all, is a drama device that he has for creating opposition, dramatic scenes and so on (Conan is knocked down by a pety guard, how? Its "impossible"... But the GM had TP. Perfect, isn't it,? In the stories, it happen's all the time) It a shame that not only you are unable to think of this TP system without prejudges, but you can't stop to spit crap and nonsense witout hesitation.
