Paul Mitchener agreed, and that’s definitely my default as well. And agreed that it was poor form.

But I was kind of getting at that in my title re. “practical play.” Like, this weird thing happens, now what? Do I stop and make a big production out of it? Do I fiddle with the procedures for future sessions? I opt for the least-disruptive solution in almost all cases, trusting that I can work it out later.

Mark Delsing okay, in the RAW if the TN won’t be 14, the GM needs to explain why but he explains before rolling. Which to me is a strong implication that there’s a “if you do it you’ve done it” thing going on. You don’t get to not-roll if you don’t like the number.

Which is where we found ourselves. I just looked at him for a second and he just looked at me and shrugged. Worth stopping the whole session? Bleagh.
