I was thinking it was round up. But yeah it's round down.

so 10 for the skill is really the best you can do.
Attribute max is going to be 19 for str though

15 or 16 for Agility.

If you use the proper races with the proper augmentations.

3122b: However, Gnomes are still only for punting.

3123: I am no longer allowed to sing, or hum, "the Internet is for porn" anytime the hacker/decker rolls datasearch.

3123a: I am allowed to hum or sing "The Internet is for Porn" if I am the decker/hacker, however.

3123b: And even if I'm not the decker/hacker, if he reaches the chorus, I am allowed to join in.

Well, that's obviously true. Gnomes aren't people.

3124: I am not allowed to play surge characters... based on cute animals.
3124a: nor am I allowed to do any surge in general after the hyper active low attention span combat freak

3125: Perpetuating negative Metahuman stereotypes around Humanis is bad.
3125a: Perpetuating negative racial stereotypes around anyone is even worse.
3125b: Just because he's East Indian does not mean he drives a cab. Although it makes for a damned good cover.
3125c: I am no longer allowed to make Amer-Indian names. Ever. Again. I now live on a Reserve and have to respect their culture even more.

3126: "I found pills and ate them" is never an acceptable answer.
3127: If we steal a drug stash, I can't say "Grabbin' peelz".
3127a: Even if my name is Louis.
3127a: -Especially- if my name is Louis.

honestly you two i dont care if you let your bigotry spill from one game to the next or not, i'm the damn dirty keep who will shoot you at maximum range in the head with a heavy crossbow in either game and then come rushing in to chop you up afterwards

and yes gnomes are still for punting

3128: If a recently emergent A.I. offers to play a game of 'Global Thermonuclear War' with my hacker, I am to politely decline.
3128a: If any A.I. offers to play a game of 'Global Thermonuclear War' with my hacker, I am to politely decline, just in case.
3129: I am not to introduce recently emergent A.I. to the concept of "Perfect Play"
3130: I am not allowed to tutor recently emergent A.I. in the classics or philosophy (this one's tentative - I'm trying it now and it might just work out).

Reminds me that a computer will be playing on Jeopardy in February. It can understand English to know what the questions mean and to properly form an answer in the form of a question.

3131: I am not to introduce nascent AIs to the concepts of pornography, sexual intercourse, or any other form of human perversion. This -never- can end well.
3132: There are no player accessible magical traditions that corrupt their users. I shall stop asking for one.
3133: Chaos is -not- power. Ok, maybe it is, but it is not the Chaos I think it is.
3134: Cougars do not go in cars. My hacker shall stop arranging for this to happen
3135: I do not hate stairs
3135a: I do not hate zombies
3135b: I do not hate tanks
3135c: The only thing in the world I do not hate is not vests

"I thought putting things there made people happy!"
"No, Deus."

More like "only certain people, deus"

"This requires further experimentation!"

bah, double post

3136: can not use any holiday decorations in a run as weapons or distractions of any type.



headed off at the mall by the gm as I hmm'd at a decoration they had

Why not? It worked perfectly well for Christopher Chance in this week's episode of Human Target.

I will not accept the existence of shows that took the place of 'My Little Terminator.'
I will stop referring to 'Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles' as 'My Little Terminator'

"It is at least polite to ask first. Or at least warn them. Or administer anaesthesia."

3137: I may not take "Cabaret Singer" as my Day Job.

Why the heck not?

punishable by bodyly hurt, if player insists on playing it out.

Unless they're exceedingly good at it, which is admittedly rare.

3137a: "Burlesque Dancer" is right out if I insist on RPing it.
3137b: "Lesbian Elf Stripper Ninja" as well.
3137c: Just leave your damned clothes on!!!

3137d: And if you have blessed clothes, leave those on too!

3138: When asked what my subtle weapon will be my LMGs under barrel grenade launcher is never the appropriate answer. If it is loaded with knockout gas then maybe.

3138a: After further experimentation, knock-out gas is not as subtle as once thought. The only appropriate answer when asked what my subtle weapon is, it shall be the -butt- of my LMG
3139: A plan should never hinge on "Letting loose twelve rabbits and let them do what they do best"
3139a: The same goes for rats, mice, squirrels, lemmings, and raccoons
3140: Raccoons are not a viable option for air dropped ordnance, even if I put parachutes on them
3140a: The same for rabbits, squirrels, lemmings, rats, and mice
3141: Though the whole "Bad List/Dinner List" thing works for Lowfyr, it does not work for street samurai
3142: My mages' name can no longer contain three famous stage magicians and a city. This style only works if you are Jim Butcher.
3143: When my runner is in London, it is considered a bad idea to ask about London Below, as it makes my runner seem less than totally sane
3144: Anything that is either on fire or shoots jets of fire is not subtle, despite my pyro's claims to the contrary
3145: No more graphically describing the effects of any BTL that involves sex or anything even remotely related to sex.
3145a: No more graphically describing the effects of any BTL chip in a way that makes even getting beat up by an angry orc sound like sex

3145b: "Bubba The Love Troll" Black BTL shall never, ever be described, and only reserved for those who really, really deserve it.

3145c: Unless it's their thing, but they'll have to look it up on their own. The GM should not have to lose his/her sanity due to a bizarre player. At least...not to describing Bubba the Love Troll

Shouldnt "Bubba the Love Troll" be self explanatory? I mean, i know I get imagery i dont want in my head at the utterance.

3145d: "Dermal Deposit Dan" is also not be described.
3145e: Neither should "Scrotax, the Impregnator."

3146: I may not play a mage who summons air spirits to take bullets out of guns and put them in his hands.

3147: I can not have "Actor", "Musician", or "Ballerina/Danseur" as my Day Job
3147a: "Professional Waiter" is, however, acceptable
3148: My Troll Ganger cannot take "Pimp" as his Day Job
3149: I may not sing "Money" from the Musical Cabaret, "Money" by Pink Floyd, or any other song called "Money" (too many to list here) while the Johnson is in earshot.
3150: I may not play an AI rigger who's primary drone is a trash can robot and speaks only binary
3150a: Nor may I play an AI rigger who's primary drone is Anthromorphic and Gold in color and speaks in a stuffy British Accent
3150b: Nor may my AI rigger refuse to open the "Pod Bay Doors" of his van for the party. This goes double for parties featuring a character named John.

3151. 'Come and have a go, if you think you're hard enough!' is never Plan B.

3152: Six gallons of hydrofluoric acid is never Plan B either.

3152a: And if Hydrofluoric Acid is ever necessary for a plan to work, it is time to reconsider the plan.

3152b: And, again, never let the players know a NPC with a improvised WMD and an inclination to use it.

3151a. Unless you are playing an ork orc with a deathwish, but then you'll be standing alone

Double posts for the lose

3153. I am not allowed to ask the bear shaman if he craps in the woods.
3154. I am not allowed to giggle uncontrollably when the shark shaman calls someone "chum."

3156. I am not allowed to speak to any shamans.
3157. I am not allowed to make ANY dares to a mage with the trickster mentor spirit.
3158. I am not allowed to reject your reality and substitute my own.
3158a. Unless I am actually awakened.

3160. I am not allowed to buy EMP grenades for the express purpose of shutting down heavily cybered team mates after annoying them into attacking me.
3161. I am not allowed to try to convince the team that their commlinks will run faster if they allow me to add my "special programs."
3161a. Especially if my special programs involve shock therapy via cyber parts.
3162. I am not allowed to spread rumors that the rigger only jumps into vehicles because they weigh less than he does.
3163. I am not allowed to use MSPaint to forge a layout of a structure just because I didn't get into the security systems.
3164. I am not allowed to use Google Maps when told to look into the security around a building.
3164a. Even though it would show any defensive structures around said building.
3164b. Even if I manage to convince the GM that by 2070 they must have it in real time imaging.
3165. I am not allowed to counter the Johnson's deal by adding 42 to the end of whatever number he offered.
3166. I am not allowed to hack into a megacorp just to change all the passwords of their low tier employees to FouRteeToo.
3167. I am not allowed to tell the team that they should count to 42 before opening the door.
3168. The number 42 no longer exists.

3168a: The Player that makes fun of the GM's faulty Random Number Generator that keeps coming up with the number 42 with find their PC having a severe bad time just for the hell of it.

3169: No more stealing every goddamn stapler in an office building during a run
3169a: Nor may I steal any red Swinglines
3170: Anti-tank weapons are no longer allowed to be fired indoors at targets that are man-sized. This goes double for stealth missions and triple for when there are civilians in the area
3171: No mystery ingredients when I'm providing meals for my fellow runners, in game or out

3169b: Do not attempt to "Overrun the Black Market Office Supply" through equipment stolen from 'Runs.

3172. I am not allowed to load my fully automatic assault cannon with a drum of anti-tank rounds.

Edited for format.

3172a: Especially if used against the neighboring apartment for having their music blaring at 0200.

3172b: Unless the music just really is that bad.

...3152c: and never, ever let an innocent and cute looking little girl genius demolitionist PC acquire or make a 128 litre FAE and then force the runners to adopt "plan B".

...3152d: especially when said girl genius demolitionist has the outlook of a thirteen year old and her Charisma is higher than the rest of the team's combined.
