[OOC] The Nineteenth Hole

[Kiiz]

Here's the beloved and customary OOC thread for y'all.

[Pard]

Hello everyone! (This is actually just an excuse to be the first player to post in this thread...)

So we got like what? A paladin, a fighter/barbarian, a swashbuckler, a ranger, a warlock, a sorcerer, and a wizard? This'll be fun

[Kiiz]

Yeah, there weren't really any meat shield apps... So, those that applied with said positions were almost shoo ins. I wish people read all of my advert... Oh well

[zoltansonojo]

Congratulations to my fellow accepted players!


Don't worry Kiiz, I'll have at least one d12 hit die, so I should be meat-shieldish enough. (Unless you plan on throwing a tarrasque at us at level 3)

[Pard]

Oh, well I hope you didn't pick me to be a meatshield... Freaking dice hate me. Dear Lord!

[Kiiz]

Now now, don't be giving your DM nasty ideas, Zoltan. You know that we love to do so much with them nasty ideas

[zoltansonojo]

I actually don't know that I have used this die system, sadly. Do we re-roll all ones? Or only those ones that are currently included as part of a stat?

[Kiiz]

ALL OF THEM!!!!

Well, all the ones that pertain to rolling for stats, that is.

[Benoni]

@zoltansonojo: Usually all ones. On the other hand, I have had DM's say reroll 1's once only, in which case I did it wrong. Please tell me I did it wrong? I managed to roll an uncanny number of 2's.

[Pard]

Well one of us messed up...

[Benoni]

@Pard: Yeah... I'm having trouble figuring out how you arrived at those stats. They were higher before rerolls.

[Kiiz]

Arrrgg.... Well, I know that there's a rule somewhere that states something like: If your stats' ability mods are less than or equal to X, you can reroll. Unfortunately, my DMG is at home (I'm at a starbucks right now), and the SRD doesn't have any info on it. Anyone else have a DMG handy? If no one else does, I'll just make a ruling some time in the next hour or so. For both Pard's and Ben's rolls.

[Peleus]

Hi folks!

I had quite a few twos too. But, all in all, my rolls turned out pretty decent, I think. You can hide behind Jaden, Pard.

[Pard]

They were? I just rerolled the non-dropped ones, since that is what my home DM has us do.

Oh yeah, I subtracted. Didn't realize that I did the KH3 thing... Fixed it. Still, so I reroll all ones like Ben or did I do it right?

EDIT I got a DMG do you know where it is at roughly?

[Benoni]

@Pard: Yes, you get 5 more re-rolls.

@Kiiz: There is. I checked it, too. The rule is to re-roll anything with no stat higher than 13 or a total modifier of 0 or less.

I once had my players roll standard, and since there were only three of them, I DM'ed a fourth and rolled stats. Tanimoral came out with the lowest legal stats possible, while my DMPC had... 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 14. In that order. It was the strangest rolling any of us had ever seen. Anyways, lest an NPC outshine the players, I swapped stats with Tan.
