Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded).

This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

What causes the resistance, to d100 % Dice adoption throughout RPGs?

I have considered roll under 1d6. Ability scores would range from 1 (clinically disabled) to 5 (peak of human potential), while skills would range from -2 (untrained) to +1 (master). Difficulty would range from 1 (trivially easy) to 5 (nigh-impossible). To get the threshold number, simply add Ability score + skill modifier, then subtract the Difficulty value.

Quote from: Chris24601 on August 18, 2024, 08:50:01 AMGenerally a minimum range for me is half the dice size... for a d20 you need modifers of at least +10 from various sources (attribute + skill + misc.).

Chris,

Yeah, totally agree. When I said "1-5 skill range" I meant skill ranks only. For D20, I think the minimum total range is atts 1-5 + skills 1-5 plus mods (your 1 to 10 idea.) Actually atts 1-5 and skills 1-10 works better I think. Or skills 1-20 if you want to have a more epic game (which I don't.)

Do you think Atts 1-5 + Skills 1-5 will work with a 2d6 mechanic? Maybe keep the range but shift the numbers to: atts -2 to 2 and skills 0 to 4 (close to MongTrav).
