[QUOTE="Raven Crowking, post: 3778703, member: 18280"] There is a difference in posting obstacles, and in posting obstacles that are inherent with a given game set-up related to a given threshold of significance. What I stated was that the per-day resource system did not inherently create an obstacle to any threshold of significance. What pemerton did was attempt to contrive a situation in which an obstacle was created. Had I said, "There is no situation to which per-day resources create an obstacle" this would have proven me wrong; and very foolish as well, as it would indicate that I failed to understand the whole point of per-day resources. So, yes, you can use per-day resources to provide an obstacle, regardless of what threshold of significance you are using, but, as I demonstrated, it is even simpler if you so desire to avoid an actual obstacle from being created if that is what is desired. IOW, "halfway competent DM"s do not artificially create obstacles without providing the means to get around them, if the goal in the game is to not have said obstacles. RC [/QUOTE]
