A lot of insulators are light colours to stop outside and inside from being the same temperature...

And yeah, black can absorb cold as well...

Kouri... how about this... if you got some black food colouring and put some in water then made ice cubes with them... they would last half the time as normal ice cubes...

God I hate online dice. They always favor low numbers.

It's just your imagination smile And a really unlucky set of streaks. By the way, you can't just forgo rolls and consider that a rest post, if that's what you meant... you can move your rolls into the next posts to act as (failed) trainings posts. I can give you another more mental type of training to do during your rest posts so that you don't feel like you always have to make them haha razz

Actually it's not just my imagination. Most random number generators favor low numbers simply due to the algorithm they use to generate said numbers. I don't know exactly how Gaia's work, but most have that flaw. I've actually read that Gaia's generator actually creates a pool of numbers every five minutes or so and randomizes from those numbers. Often times there will be a pool primarily composed of low numbers. Sometimes they do have mostly high numbers though. You can see the system's bias by doing a large poll. Have every guild member post within a certain time window roll a die in the same thread and look at the results. You will end up seeing large groups of the same numbers, and some numbers will never show up in the sample group at all. An old Pokemon guild I used to be a part of proved this point very well in a contest it held. Everyone got 3 rolls a day and depending on their rolls got a certain prize. There was a huge influx of rolling that displayed the patterns I described.

And I only meant to forgo this one because the CP calculation equation was changed. I'm not gunna make a habit out of it. For instance, the GD 2 I rolled will be a fail post.

Note: I wouldn't mind extra mental training. Or anything that doesn't take up chakra for that matter.

OK, so I was looking at the crafting section of the system subforum so I could use it later, but I'm really confused on how to determine the DC. What I want to make is essentially a giant senbon. I figure it's a medium weapon, piercing, Iron, medium complexity.
Medium has base DC 10|5posts
Piercing has bade DC 15|2posts
Iron has base DC 10|4posts
Medium complexity has DC 10|3posts

Since three of these categories have a base DC, I'm wicked confused. If they're additive, it's DC45|14posts. DC45 is insane, especially 14 times. I'd need to minmax at level 9 or so to pull that off,so that can't be true.
If they're averaged, is DC 19|4posts, which seems reasonable to me.
If DC is averaged and posts are additive, it's DC 19|14posts, which is only marginally more difficult because you have to succeed 14 times.
If you use the highest base, it's DC25|8posts, which also seems reasonable, though a bit on the high side.

So if any of these hit the nail on the head, let me know. And if I'm horribly wrong on all counts, let me know about that too.

Nuibari? razz

Well, you're not going going to be able to make these weapons off the bat even at like, level 5 (maybe 10 haha). This said I do acknowledge that DC45 is ridiculously high. We were actually working on the Craft guide as we know that it's REALLY dodgy. Easy level stuff is meant to be around DC 10, medium level... like fixing your blade or something DC 20-ish (crafting rough weapons like kunai would also fall into this category) and I think what you were looking at would be in the hard level especially if you want to make it sharp yet strong and all that. I think the DC would be lower than 45, but not by much. But this is all what I just made up on the fly, thinking about the Craft system as it is now.

You could always pay someone to make it >_> <_< (cough, Goto).


As a side note, i'm reading a paper on implicit egoism. At least it's interesting. SO apparently Jacksonville is inhabited by a disproportionate amount of Jacks... (and Philadelphia a disproportionate amount of Philips... and Milwaukee a disproportionate amount of Mildreds.. and Virginia Beach a disproportionate amount of Virginias).

ps. I believe my impassioned defence of the dice was roundly pwned. HAHA

No one under level 5 should be able to craft weapons. Level 10 should be right around when a character can start doing that. And yes, if you want to be crafting your own weapons you should be focusing points and training on it. Not every shinobi builds their weapons, which is why we have shops.

I know I won't be able to craft immediately, but to need 25 ranks in craft in order to even consider making a medium piercing weapon is a bit insane. DC 30 is usually considered a feat of considerable skill in most d20 systems. 45 is breaking physical laws.

This isn't most D20 systems. Those numbers are irrelevant here.

Anything else?

Well... this system isn't really based on most d20 systems (which tend to have lower DCs, I've noticed). Unfortunately I can't really get back to you on that until the summer. crying We've got an actual idea for Craft with like recipes and stuff but none of us have had the time to think it up. I mean, compare it with the DCs for learning jutsus. God Legacy weapons would be higher than S-Rank DCs, advanced weapons would be around A-rank DCs, medium weapons would probably be C to B rank DCs.

edit: Aruil beat me to it (a bit more abrasively.. razz ) but yeah lol.

Yeah, one more thing. Stop being a d**k to me. If you could figure that out for me, I'd be really grateful.

I mean come on, I voice legitimate concerns and you just write me off and send me a message saying to stop. I'm used to Gygax d20, so excuse me if seem a little confused when it comes to amateur systems, or if I'm set in my ways. Now. I'm done corresponding with you, so you can either drop it as well, or you can get the last word, I don't care either way. I would like to enjoy my time in this guild, and so I will n** this in the bud.
