Traditionally I'm a scrooge when it comes to handing out Karma to my players. They've taken down some pretty intense scores over the years and honestly the most I've ever handed out, with one notable exception, is six points of karma. I'm changing this actually. But I was curious as to how much you like to hand out-it doesn't need to be a specific number, but rather a ball park amount. A lot? A little? How do you like to award it? Do you have any special tricks you use?
For instance a poster on this board about 9 years ago taught me a cool trick. Every few sessions I have the players vote for a player. Who ever gets the most votes gets an extra two points of karma, and second place gets 1 point. My players like this, and have tried out a number of different methods when approaching it-dead serious voting, getting together and rigging the votes, rigging the votes so everyone ties, you name it. So what about at your table? |
