Ex: You take this feat 3 times and gain 9 bonus ranks of Craft: basketweaving in exchange for a -3 penalty to your BAB, but may not take the feat once for Craft: Basketweaving and then again for Craft: Underwater Basketweaving.Ok, so it's not the coolest feat ever, but it satisfies the point of the discussion here, that you could bend the rules of d20 if you are willing to do a bit of work (I mean, come on, that feat took me all of 3 minutes to concieve and write) to explain why you have done so.</blockquote>
