hate to burst the bubble guys but... that little set of spot and listen checks took me around half an hour to do, so if you dont mind... once combats begin to rear their ugly heads, please roll your own dice, its too much for one guy to handle!
also if anyone wants to use a skill or anything, just say what you want to do and include the dice roll. ill let you know if you can (in which case the roll counts), or cant (in which case it doesnt matter). but i do think tha twill save time in the game especially with people posting from different time zones (im GMT +1 if anyone cares)
