Blame me for wanting to coordinate with the other player. Thinking on opening fire and thinking the rest through later

Major Expletive, I can't seem to remember how to use the dice in this new version.

Upper Right of the post (once you have posted) is a dice roller.

Or in the formatting ribbon, second row toward the right is the 6-sided die logo for inline dice.

I prefer the first option, and then edit the post to reflect the dice roll, but the roll isn't inline.

 

The roll was a 97, on a success of 37, so no success.

the expletiving dice just won't work

[solyrflair]

Try just doing a simple roll. Roll

[solyrflair]

On the inline roller, the format is (Skill:1d100)

So if I had to make a roll for Navigation, the roll would be (Navigation:1d100) showing Navigation

Gah, what the hell are these rolls. No offense to you, Svartalf, I don't get the new roller either. But I've no idea what you rolled there =D

[Svartalf]

that's the problem, I just can't make the new rollers work the way the old did and I get totally flummoxed at trying to get a result from them, looks like it would take 1 post per roll to begin with...

[Acromos]

That's horrible. God, this site. I mean, to be absolutely honest with you, I'm relieved I'm not the only one who finds it completely bonkers.

But let's see, what you're trying to do is roll a psy check (2d6), and a BS check (d100). Right?

Here, let's see how I fare at the same rolls.

Ok, nopes. Oh, it rolls the dice alright, but it makes no fucking sense. I ... I don't know what to say, it really feels like this is the work of someone who knows some code, and heard something about some dice, but otherwise have no clue what so ever what people would use it for and how.

Let's try again. If I happen to figure it out, I'll then try to explain it.

Oh my sweet fucking God Emprah Almighty, would you look at that. If you put it in a table, it kinda-sorta makes sense.

Yes, 2d10 psy check to get point blank bonus, and BS check (except I was thinking agility because I'm stupid) for the shot.

Yea, I rolled 2d6. Like a goddamned moron - I even thought 'well, let's not roll any 9's here' - then typed in 2d6. Anyways, roll in IC, let's get this show on the road! =)

I mean, if my explanation works. Pick table, type in what to roll for, then what dice to roll.

Oh ... while I've been repeating that these are low-key goons, there's a lot of them. Keep in mind that Fate is a real thing, and if you don't use it, it doesn't do anything =)

[Svartalf]

I'll have to check the rulez again to remind me what Fate is for ;)
