How did I miss all of these others posts... >_>
What was provided in the RULES forum was half-baked nonsense. My balking at it was justified because it turns out that the rules, at least concerning stats which is the center of my contention, were far from being properly defined, and still are a far cry from what would satisfy my curiosity. Again, I'm going to say the trend around here of shouting down dissent would be sad if it wasn't so fascinating.
Juno Wrote:Amen to everything Misa said.The system is not as vague as advertised: being more vague than the old system is not "vague" in an absolute sense. I'm sure the intent was a shift towards vagary, but numbers impart complexity. I'm looking for where the line is drawn. If you don't care then fine, nobody is holding a gun to your head and demanding you read everything posted on the forum.
EDIT: And for reference, Misa, we did once have a complicated system with mathematics crammed all into it, which is why we're trying to be vague now. Apparently, Rod wishes us to regress back into complicated "game playing."
