You're playing a game in which your goal, when it comes to determining the quality of outcomes, is to roll your d20 higher than the GM's d20. Each side has miscellaneous bonuses to add to its result due to favorable circumstances.
What is the result of your roll that indicates the best outcome?
20 on the die, since more is better?
One higher than the GMs result, since as you get more bonus points, it's actually harder to roll low and still win?
Tie with the GM, since that's the least likely result? Because if you have more or fewer (but not equal) bonus points than the GM, you are more likely to either win or lose - but odds of a tie diminish. Note that a tie, though rare, does not automatically indicate a win under these rules.
Or something else, like a result that equals your attribute score?
