[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 8718972, member: 67338"] no i'm not. I may not agree with you, you may not agree with me...but no I am not wrong all 6 stats are what my character is...whay I am roleplaying as but we can get close enough... and we do so by useing the numbers I have had players throw things at me I know this is false. I had a player jump over a chair once too to 'prove how easy it was' so againfase,,, WE CAN we just choose not to (and for good reason) hence why the larps I loved when I was young and healthy I could not play today on a bet. but you CAN say 'that is great, now make an X mental check to see how well your character does it' I can make a puzzel and watch someone larp beating it.. or I can set a DC and when people try have them roll you can try at least nope... and good rule of thumb don't tell people what they mean and what they don't but I also am happy with how things have gone in the 20ish years since we changed okay please keep reading my mind it is way easier if you assume you know what I want more then I do done, you are okay with google/text book knowladge... so can I read your notes or the adventure ahead too? please come to one of mine... you would be suprised... infact if you did I would go out of my way to have creatures with scent and keen hearing all over the place just to show you how wrogn you are... never mind I don't want you at my table or scemt or if you were moving there as they came in good hearing... and a stealth check is a great way to check to see if you get it closed. yes no I am saying "that's a great idea, lets roll to see how well it works" a high roll it works as intended a low roll it doesn't work as intended having a better skill increases odds of high having a bad skill and disadvantage makes odd of bad result more likely.. great...
