[QUOTE="Lyxen, post: 8377696, member: 7032025"] My bad, then and my apologies, but PCs/NPCs (not the players, once again) with goldfish memories who can't remember that they were just shot for 36 damage from hiding and allow this to occur round after round, from the same exact place, and do nothing about it are dolts/dummies. It says nothing about the mental capacity of the players, but it does say something about the way those PCs/NPCs are played in terms of role. And just the fact that some people can read that it's possible from the rules for a rogue to do it, and insist that it's not only possible, but obviously the intent of the game because it's possible, and let their game be dictated entirely by rules instead of doing what exactly the same rules (admittedly in another section) tell them about also shows something about the tone of the game. It's not worse or better as long as everyone is having fun, but again people should assume their choices and not feel prickly about them if they put them on display. [/QUOTE]
