RttToEE - Group 1's OOC.

[TwistedMindInc]

I'm perfectly fine with a reroll. My first roll had an even lower average than Nac Mac Feegle. I was under the impression that we would follow the rules in the PH for mulligans (I hadn't seen any indications otherwise) so I rerolled. I think there is a good reason for making sure someone has at least one stat as high as 14. If I had been asked to play a character with no score higher than 13, I doubt I would have maintained my interest. I don't need mega stats to play a character and I don't mind having the occasional really low score to go with high ones. But a character with no ability score bonus higher than +1 can be really hard to play. The core rules assume you have at least one bonus of +2 or higher and that is the bare minimum. Most classes rely on at least one ability score being fairly high to be played effectively. I'm not saying it isn't possible, but it should be for a lower-powered game if you do. From what I've heard about the slug-fest that is RttToEE, low-powered it is not. Anyway, just my 2 cents on the matter.

Right, I understand.. but I also gave everyone a junk roll and the PHB doesn't give a person that. I also believe that is an optional rule. I don't use that, as I have stated my rules for re-rolls. Not to mention, you're all 4th level so you will have one stat bump and depending on your race, that too will alter your scores. Basically? I would like people to ask before they re-roll not just assume that can. Not every DM runs everything by the books.

A'ight. I feel the need to address this. I don't know what it is.. but this group does not seem to like how I am running things. I've had several people disagreeing with my calls on re-rolling and stat building. It's a little.. discouraging, to say the least. I've never had a problem with people rolling their stats in my other games -- and I've always done it this way. With that being said..

we are still waiting on all votes in group 1 whether or not Nac can re-roll. If you are in group 1, please no posting in group 2's OOC.. and visa versa. It confuses and complicates matters if everyone is posting in each other's OOC.

While I'm happy that people like the idea of a reroll, I'd just like to step back and say it's not a huge deal, people. Whether or not I get a reroll I said I'd find a way to play this character and have fun, which should be the primary priority. I tried to say that in my first post, because really I can deal with low stats if that's what you figure is the right thing to do, I just figured I'd ask because I thought it couldn't hurt.

I personally don't care if you re-roll or not, I just don't want our DM to get pissed at us. I am glad that you are willing to make due though. I think I'm the last one to reply on this topic, since I was gone yesterday. So.........sorry if you got the impression I am mad at you or something, but I'm not. I did apologize earlier for coming off as rude. I don't want any hard feelings with anyone on these boards. Let alone a person that I'm in more than one game with!

OtS, you're not in this group. You shouldn't be posting here.

Go back to your special IC forum OOC thread and talk about you special group number two stuff! Mister special pants!

So like, I'm the only one who's read Twisted's post huh? :\

Well I guess that's not really a fair question, since anyone from the other group that answers no is automatically proven wrong.

Voda, you're not in this group so you're not suppsoed to be posting in this thread.

My apologies. I simply didn't see any indication otherwise so I followed the core rules.

Edit: Is there an OOC for the second group yet? I don't see one. Maybe I'm just blind.
