Fail = they counter offer, they will do it but... (you or GM picks one)<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">It will cost you something extra first</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">They will tell someone else and you get unwanted attention later</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">They resent the request and will stab you in the back later</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">You owe them a favor they get to ask for later</li> </ul>(if your system has a crit fail then they don't do it and it causes you trouble.  and if your system has a crit success, then they do it and it opens up an opportunity for you or you get something extra or they become an ally) .This just gets the job done so well every time!We find that they pretty much always results it what other systems take more steps and more points pools and such to accomplish.   In the end, this does what most any plot wants = keeps the current events going, and adds some extra hooks for more plots.  The GM gets to decide what and which.</blockquote>
