[QUOTE="Valmur_Dwur, post: 375568, member: 5065"] I agree with C_C! You shouldn't be looking to grade a test paper for goodness sakes! Just use the XP awards as a rough guideline as to how the party should be doing. Hell, if the party makes it out while advancing the story or plothooks for the pcs then there should be celebrations! :D I personally would be much better at fudging a die roll to prompt the story than try to figure out who did better IC. After all everyone is there to have fun and while I'm a stickler for alignment, Unless the LG Paladin was indiscriminately killing innocents I would have a hard time figuring out who was RP'ing better. But I would know not to allow the Paladin to get a bonus to his saving throw vs the MU who has trained his wand upon the Paladin to stop him:eek: This way the player now knows that LG doesn't mean kill everyone and let the Gods sort them out:p ;) [/QUOTE]
