So much of what other people listen to now, I have never heard. Goddamn young whippersnappers and your meaningless pop music, with its mumble raps and shite!

Trinity

Whoops! Mistake made.

Trinity

@RumikoOhara No need to apologize.

Trinity

Sounds good.
Also, had no idea you were fishing for input, but, here:

I have been a part of a game or two where dice rolling was a part of the mechanics, however all of the RNG was handled by the GM, for the sake of consistency and neutrality. He made it fairly simple on himself I believe. Also helped to make things more fluid, and like most PbP gaming, rather than devolving situations that called for it into short, brief, one line encounters.

Other games have just done as you are doing, using a set of rules as a framework, and comparison aid more than anything.

Either way works fine for me.

Trinity

Excellent!

Trinity

Still down for this.

Trinity

Interested. Favour "low power" games.

OFCOURSE! No one needs an AR-17. OFCOURSE! What's next people are going to assume arms in the 2nd amendment means access to nuclear arms? What about landmines!? WE NEED TO HAVE A DISCUSSION.

(Tips: Read in Cenk Uygur voice.)

Edit: (If I must be serious for a moment. Sorry.)

Guns used 2.5 million times a year in self-defense. Law-abiding citizens use guns to defend themselves against criminals as many as 2.5 million times every year -- or about 6,850 times a day. According to the National Safety Council.

Upwards of 200,000 women use a firearm to defend themselves from sexual abuse each year. From Kleck and Gertz, "Armed Resistance to Crime."

Among many actual stats I could use...

*awkward cough*

@SleepingSilence

I have a problem here.
While it is good that you are citing a source, it is also one of the most disputed, and hard to believe sources there is, regarding defensive gun useage.

It is something however, that there will never be hard, concrete factual data about.
