Literally this entire argument and discourse about math and numbers is why numbers need to be gone. This is a full page of multiple paragraph long posts trying to grind home the idea that math makes this whole thing fun. 

It doesn't.

This whole math thing is what alienates new players, much the same as the anti-gun sentiment alienates an entire genre of character. 

I'm willing to argue this, but it's 1:30, and I'm gonna sleep before I do that. My next post will detail my point.
