10 over also crits.

You just gotta pick easy DCs. That's why I exclusively fight pre-schoolers.

don't forget to tell the cops that you drop-kicked those children in self defense!

17? Lots of days I can only wish i got a 17

[–] vladmech@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I’d rather roll a 17 than a 19 haha

There's actually something to this. Olympians that were surveyed reported more satisfaction with a bronze than a silver.

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (2 children)

That makes a lot of sense, thinking about it. With a bronze, you can say, "well, I had a really rough day, but even still I managed to eke out a bronze." But with silver, you're tempted to say "...but could I have done 0.2s better and got the gold?"

Depending on the sport sometimes a bronze is a win and a silver is a loss. With some sports, if it’s a one on one thing, there’s a game that’s basically “if you win it’s a bronze, if you lose it’s fourth place” and then the next game (with different team obviously) is “if you win it’s a gold, if you lose it’s a silver”. So if you get a bronze, you won, if you get a silver, you lose.

Great point, although there's also the third option where silver goes to the winner of the losers' bracket (so, they only lost one game, and it wasn't the last one). I'm pretty sure they don't do that in the Olympics, though.

[–] BurntWits@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 days ago

The last olympics I followed was 2010 so things may have changed without my knowledge too.

That's very true as well, I think all team sports are like this.

Silver is first loser

needs an 18 to pass

[–] ruuster13@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Their AC was 18 so my best wasn't good enough to make a dent today.

I shall sing of your deeds and adventures, inspiring you!

(I'm not a bard but I hope it helps anyway)

That's only because you forgot to add your proficiency modifier. Don't forget to take your own skills and circumstances into account! You have more to contribute than you think!

[–] ruuster13@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 week ago

OMG I forgot I was blessed.

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 week ago

[–] suzyq@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

Love you too <3

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

I rolled a 4

[–] primrosepathspeedrun@anarchist.nexus 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

Say it again after rolling a 3.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 2 points 1 week ago

For some games, you want to roll low. So a 17 would be a failure.

[–] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I just passed a LARP group in a park near my place. Three had to be forty people gathered in a picnic area comparing their costumes

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

Amen brother

[–] Grimy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

This is what I tell myself when I buy lottery tickets. I legit imagine the D20 and everything. Keeps me going.

[–] Beacon@fedia.io 4 points 1 week ago

Except you should be imagining a D900,000,000

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 2 points 1 week ago

That's how they get you. Fukken scammers.
