I think it's pretty fun to extrapolate. I also get a kick out of seeing how every DM would do it differently.As for the inconstancies, I think it adds a mysterious, esoteric vibe to the game that I find interesting. As a player it keeps you guessing and intrigued every time a new situation comes up and the DM has to make a ruling on the fly. For instance, in your thief example, the thief player would be a little more on edge and interested as the DM decides how to handle things, especially if the ruling was a one time, only unique to that particular situation alone kind of ruling. Compared to just another D20 + Attribute + Prof bonus you've already made a million times that night, I find the wildly varied and inconsistent ways of doing things refreshing.Btw, just the thought of making my own Monk Surprise Table in Excel, converting the percentages into a "X in 12" like progression sounds like a fun time to me, haha.</blockquote>
