[QUOTE="Raven Crowking, post: 4468509, member: 18280"] I count down initiative, and if you're not paying attention, you go when you notice your turn was passed (i.e., you held your action). If you don't know what you want to do on your turn, you hold your action until you figure it out. If a new round comes up, sucks to be you. Well, yeah. Sure. More of a shorthand to help you think about things than something that is strictly defined. Lots of grey and nebulous corners. (Actually, almost all language is like that, if you examine it closely enough.) :lol: Whatever floats your boat is where you gotta dip your paddle, my friend! :lol: Perhaps. Just seemed to be a lot of it, breathing down the neck of the initial release. Seems rushed to me. But I could be wrong. It wouldn't be the first time. Or the second. Or the third. ;) Not a problem. You didn't seem otherwise; I was contrasting to other threads, actually. Even what little "snark" there has been in this thread seems minor to me. I really, really appreciate that, and thought I should actually thank you for using the voice of reason. Not that you are the only one! Just sometimes that's something I forget to do -- tell someone how much I appreciate their reasonable approach to discussing something. :) RC [/QUOTE]
