QUOTE (Xahn Borealis @ Jun 27 2010, 03:29 PM)  Not sure Welding is an active skill by RAW, supposed to be knowledge? Good catch, Xahn and Dumori. I agree with them: It's a knowledge skill (a Professional one, I'd say), not an active skill. *gives cookies to Xahn and Dumori* |

QUOTE (The Goon @ Jun 27 2010, 06:34 PM) Fixed, thanks for the heads up guys. Fix on my sheet copy reveals you're at 416/420. No need to spend the last 4 BP, but you can if you want. |

Xahn: I don't know what I did to deserve the snark. I was stating an objective fact. Do I recommend someone spend all their possible BP? Yeah, it reduces problems. There's also no disadvantage from a player POV to doing so.

I should be less grumpy, my apologies. Xahn, that was rather rude and snarky, and sort of uncalled for, but I'll take the ball as it lies and try to explain things from my POV. Even if my first reaction is "Can I ask WTF I did to deserve that?", you deserve better than grumpyness in reply from me.
My line of thinking in helping people with chargen is, from my POV, to get them the character they desire while trying to minimize problems for me. Mechanically, there is no advantage whatsoever to not spending all the BP (or karma in karmagen) allowed. (Lesson learned: If this game fails, I might not run another game again. But if I do, I'm just going to set a single point level, and specify only BP or Karmagen for all players.) You can't keep it to spend later, so yeah, I'm going to raise an eyebrow. Also, spending it all is a pretty handy marker to me "Hey, this sheet's done!" That reduces problems, since I keep most of the sheet iterations I receive. |

I was just referencing the first post about how you said you'd stare at someone who didn't spend their whole 420. Like staring is so horrible (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

*exhales, beats Xahn with fish* I was thinking you were actually pissed off.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif) Sarcasm does not travel over the internet.

On a happier note - 1 post won't get you karma, not when I'm trying to avoid karmic inflation, but that said? If I were so liberal with the karma, Cherry would get a point for that post. Especially since her writing of Roberts made me laugh.

Thanks! I need a good song, though: I was thinking Danger Zone, for traditional montage-ness, but it really didn't fit.

Er, his writing. Yes, char.gender != player.gender.
Annnnyway....No idea for montage songs, no. Except that given your final cut, if you use "My Heart Will Go On", the boat will mysteriously hit an iceberg.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Eh, either works, but you're right that I would question the usefulness of a demo-focus.
Okay, fix made. |
