OOC - Player Action Needed

To quote from James Starkweather, our expedition commander: "We will travel back to the campsight and last resting place of our colleagues from Miskatonic University, led by professor Charles Lake, some two years ago. We intend to confirm their amazing discoveries and to map and climb the Miskatonic Mountain range, reported to be the highest peaks in the world. Once we've reached those peaks, we will continue further. We will continue beyond the mountains. Beyond those mountains where we intend to perform an aerial survey of the lands on the far side of that range, into uncharted territory that has never before seen by the human eye. To uncover the secrets…"

OOC - Player Action Needed

Post by Job »

This thread provides a central listing of all skill rolls that players need to make for their characters so that you don't have to scan numerous threads to find what rolls are needed, and/or so that I don't need to send PM's to each player for every skill roll. Whenever you make your roll please add a post to this thread with a link to your rolls, then I'll update the main list and also your character sheet. I've also added a separate thread that maintains a history of all skill rolls attempted.

This thread will also contain occasional reminders of anything that is awaiting a response from a character (player). If I notice something that I think that I need a player to respond to, and it's been sitting idle for a week or more, I'll put a reminder under your character's name. Similar to the skill rolls, once I've noted your response/update, I'll delete the item from the list and add it to the history list.

Occasionally, I suspect that I'll make a mistake on this list. Please send me a PM to me if you notice anything incorrect.

REMINDER: To increase a skill, you must roll equal to, or greater than, your current skill percentage.
REMINDER: To successfully use a skill, you must roll equal to, or less than, your current skill percentage --Job.

.Biology roll (1d100=65)

.Climb roll (1d100=61)

As far as I can tell, James (of course) increased in Biology, but fail to learn anything from his first Climbing class as he already has a score of 75.

Apparently, James is already familiar with what's taught at the first class of Geology as well and fails to learn anything new.

.Biology skill increase roll (1D100=47)

.Climb skill increase roll (1D100=01)

.Geology skill increase roll (1D100=69)

.Meteorology skill increase roll (1D100=57)

James learns nothing new from the second sets of classes in Climbing and Geology. Everything still feels rather elementary. Especially in Climbing, James thought that he had the hang of everything in today's lecture. ;) The low skills in Biology and Meteorology (which I assume I have 01% in as it is a skill not present on the normal CoC 6th Character Sheet) increase though.

Yes, Meteorology is a new skill that is introduced in the BtMoM Campaign guide. I'll add a description of all new--and updated--skills (very soon) in the Reference section of our site.

Response to BtR,[color=#00BF00]Job's RESPONSE: These rolls determine how many +1's to add to your Polar Survival skill. Once you've made your rolls, I go in and update your character sheet. Check your character sheet and you'll see where I've done this.[/color]

RESPONSE from Job,QUESTION from BtR: So you only get +1% for each successful try. I wasn't sure, thanks. [color=#00BF00]RESPONSE from Job: Yes, sorry, that's a good question. For the purposes of these expedition training classes, I'm using slightly modified CoC rules, which handle skill increases differently for two situations: 1) using a skill during normal play, and 2) when investigators take classes. For the first situation (which doesn't apply here in this case) that is for actively using a skill during stressful or combat or investigational activities, a player would add 1d10 skill points for a successful use of a skill. For the second situation (which does apply here), where the investigator [u]trains[/u] a skill (i.e. takes classes or goes to school), the rules state that one cannot add more than 1d10 skill points per six months of game time. With our expedition travel time to Antarctica that will likely take roughly two months of in-game time, I'm trying to make things a bit more interesting for our PbP game than one roll for 6 months, so we're rolling for the addition of 1 skill point every time a character starts a class and also for every 3 days in class after that.[/color] Sorry for the longwinded explanation. I hope this helps. -- Job.

Re: OOC - Player Action Needed

Post by Job »

I've updated all rolls and actions that are needed by players. Please see the first post in this thread to see if you have any rolls to make or threads awaiting your response.

If you have any skill increase rolls that are due, please post a link to your rolls in this thread and, if you're successful, then I'll update your character sheet.

.Pilot Civil Prop (76% skill) XP check (1d100=3)

Well, that doesn't help me. Too bad I didn't get that critical success for an actual skill roll.

Darn those dice! ;)

By the way, if anyone feels that they would like to roll in advance for some of the future classes that I've put on the list, you certainly may do so and I'll update the list with your outcomes. For example, if you roll for some class that is due on Sept 27th--even though in game it's only Sept 21st and your character hasn't really taken the class yet--then I'll simply make a note in the list of your outcome.

Also, let me know if you'd like to change any of the classes that I have listed for you.
