Do Critical Glitches (Shadowrun) count?

I like to have critical glitches for enemies as well, and often make them silly or fatal, depends on the training of the enemy.

One time, a russian mobster tried to fire full auto with a machine pistol, he wasnt good at machinepistols and had a dice pool of only 2, because of long full auto bursts effect of taking 5 off the dice pool in order to add 5 damage.

Rolled the 2 dice pool, both ones, ultra critical glitch.

>The Russian first his first two shots, both missing you.
>the recoil of the first two shots has sent the gun barrel just under his chin.
>the third shot fires right into his skull
>He is dead, shot himself in the head

I rolled 1d6 to determine how many seconds his body still stands there.
He was used as partial cover for a fire fight between two guys who had 4 initiative passes.

They're golems made from dead stars. They also have a typo on the CR, they should be like ~972. They're made by Time Lords which are basically "I AM the campaign setting, personified," which can generally only be killed by ONE spell they're not immune to and ONE specific weapon that exists within them. To clarify:
Universes are sentient and sapient. They produce golems made from the hearts of stars, called Neutronium Golems to carry out tasks for them here and there, usually to provide sunlight to solar systems within them (the time lords) that have had their suns burn out or to crush the shit out of really uppity deities trying to control or kill the time lord.

I'm pretty sure that's their mating ritual. The female demonstrates her strength and fitness by hurling a table. The males, if pleased by her display, will throw chairs in response. If the female catches the chair, she has agreed to begin the courtship proper.

it's mostly because are a cheap and faggoty way of communicating emotion, and they make you look like a 12 year old.

look at the following

or

> lel, get a load of this nigger! XD
> lel, get a load of this nigger!

one looks annoying and immature, and the other looks like it's from 4chan (which is annoying and immature, but less so than emoticons)

the only emoticon we accept is ;_; ,simply because it conveys a fairly wide range of emotions in a way that makes sense (muh feels, no sleep tonight, ETc...)

Emoticons can be used for two things:
- convey the tone of your post in a way written text just cannot do
- be a shiteating teenage memespouter thinking the internet is his fucking blog

Since 4chan is an Imageboard, you can and should post a picture if your post needs context, even a shitty reaction pic will do better than a smiley. This means that anyone using emoticons is either not even trying or in the second case described above.

Could have been worse. Imagine a campaign set in /po/. Nothing ever happens.

On the other hand, /x/ makes an awesome setting. Business as usual is weird and vaguely scary shit like you're living in Halloween Town, but once a month the hordes of /b/ invade. You have to defend your board against the shitstorm of half-rotten memes, armed with nothing but willpower and half-baked creepypasta.

Skills:

INVENTORY:

Reaction pics
Epic thread pics
loli/waifu pics
"czech my dubs" pics
Neckbeard

>>25610867
>>25610856

From that point onwards the campaign turned into a serise of implications he had to mack on it to keep it interested in helping us (the gryphon turned out to be female).

It did however come in handy when the campaign really ramped up in intensity.

Ok so the "on 4chan" RPG has to actually invlove going on 4chan.

Its like... 4chan is the Dungeon. You generate a character, and then venture forth, roleplaying your character, and rolling checks to see what you post on and how you post.
>>
>>25611170
Effectively, yes. I'm a little sad I didn't think to roll heehee with the d20 idea, but I was thinking Cancer could be something like a Sanity system, where you have a threshold based on your cumulative Trolling, Wit, and Mad stats. But it could double just as effectively as a Health Point system with a similar threshold.

Also:
moot: After returning to page 1 on /co/, you encounter a Roasted Bread thread!
Janitor: I want to try and delete it!
Anon: No, let me try to outwit him, first.
moot: Alright, roll a Wit check against his Trolling.
Anon: Oh, shit. Nat 20.
moot: You successfully convince Roasted to give up his endless tyrade and are hailed as a hero on /co/. Screencaps of your thread are reposted for weeks.

Once I was playing 3.5 and our party Bard decided to write a song about our latest adventure. He rolled a nat 20 on the Perform check, so the GM decided that the song he wrote would become a big hit throughout the kingdom.

Somewhat ironically, it was such a big hit that it actually became something akin to a folk song, and thus the Bard couldn't really take the credit for writing it, so ingrained it became in the public consciousness.
>>
>>25611320
I like it. But what would Mad be for, otherwise?
Maybe your tenacity? The ability to re-roll against failed Trolling or Wit rolls? Maybe an all-round modifier for rolls, like Luck? Or should it be scrapped and replaced with something more viable?

>>25611339
I was thinking of a way to incorporate that. I suppose "Mad" could replace the previous notion of "Cancer" and Cancer could be some tangible goal for the players to strive towards to cleanse boards.
>>
>>25611385
It's the same with anything anon

When you think of conservative you don't think of someone trying to instill moral values, you think of some crazy bible thumper trying to get doctors put to death for abortion and taxing you to death

Something like that, but you can make a Mad check to... I dunno', maybe it could be like a Will save. I'm having a hard time thinking of a use for it, but maybe that's because the stats are too limited. "Wit" and "Trolling" seem like two sides of the same coin, whereas "Mad" doesn't have a partner stat, like "Patience" or "Tenacity".

>>
>>25611750
You mean, like, simplify them down to single stats and have low scores mean one thing and high scores mean another? I was thinking of this, but I'm still stumped as to a third stat to accompany, let's say, Wit and Mad (Trolling can be an action performed through Wit). So far I'm coming up with Wit as the Intelligence and Wisdom analog, and Mad as the Fortitude and Strength analog, but nothing for Dex or Charisma. Those two seem too specific.

Maybe it could be a two-stat system, unless each player plays a Janitor or Namefag or something, in which case something like Credibility could account for likelihood of being called a samefag, getting saged, getting trolled, etc.

Nah, White Knight would be one of the classes. That one guy in every tumblr feminism/woman logic/camwhore/porn//soc/ thread that can't shut up about the degradation of women in our society, white male privilege, gender roles and so forth.

Other features include:

>Name/tripfags: Anti-bards. By seeking a form of identification while in an anonymous imageboard, you immediately take a huge reduction to charisma. The bonus might be reduced through time and actions, by taking attitudes that prove you have a decent reason to distinguish yourself from other anons. Examples of good reputation namefags are... the judge from the Ask a MtG Judge Anything threads on /tg/, or known storytimee Dan Dashly on /co/. Probably half a dozen more around, I don't pay them much attention.

>Janitors: the equivalent of a low-level city guard. They don't have many chances to fuck someone up, but they can run up to their commanders (Mods) and have the Bannhounds released on your wake.

>Summerfags, trolls, cancer: things to be defeated and destroyed.

Rolled 48

>>25612036
Let's ask our panel of judges.

Also, I'm trying to work with the idea of the Three-Stat System, so here's my ideas:
MAD (Body) - Ability to continue responding to troll threads before -- or even while accruing Rage. Used to brute force through Trolling, attack Newfags, and report rule breaking.
Wit (Mind) - Ability to troll and counter-troll, as well as calmly discuss topics or derail threads. Used for the purposes previously listed, as well as Saving versus Trolling (Will, as opposed to MAD's Fort).
Cred (Soul) - Ability to deliver, as well as convince others to ignore trolls and diplomatically better threads. Also allows you to keep-up with growing trends and discern trolls from genuine idiots. Allows a passive approach to trolling through storytimes and image dumps while ignoring the perpetrators (Reflex versus Trolling).

Other features:

>Grammar Nazi
Thoroughly despised by those who do not appreciate orthography,could be compared to a good-aligned necromancer: his intentions are good, but his means are seen as questionable (no one likes to be corrected, after all. Some can take it well, but I've never met anyone that sounded pleased after being corrected, specially if it happens with other people around). Usually considered an annoying cunt by those unable to properly spellcheck or write, and an annoying paragon of grammar by everyone else. Stats to be added later, since we're still working this out.

>>25612165
Is that you, Waffle House Millionaire?

>>25612204
Also, it would be nice to increase/reduce the penalty based on the board you're in. If you're on /tg/, a derail is almost expected, so you just flip a coin to determine if you get mad, and, if that happens, flip another to find out if you'll gain 1 or 2 MAD (heads/tails). If you're on /gif/ or any other board that's somewhat difficult to derail, roll 1d6 or higher.

If the thread is deleted or you're banned, you receive a +[x] MAD modifier based on how much of a newfag are you. Newfaggotry is not an objective stat, determined, by, say, the amount of years you've been on 4chan, but rather one's capability on researching and knowing the site's own culture. Problem is, how the hell do we stat that?
>>
>>25612286
>>25612312
Following that could result in certain skills.

Shitpost (MAD) - Pushes thread towards bump/image limit without contributing. However, contributes to Cancer if used too often.
(Counter-)Trolling (Wit) - Incites Rage in other posters who fail to Save versus Trolling; vacates threads if Rage gets high enough, but may contribute to Cancer if targets successfully Counter-Troll.
Delivar (Cred) - Reduce Cancer and liven good threads. Can also be used to Storytime, increasing threat of Trolling but decreasing Cancer.
Report (MAD) - Attempts to have rule-breaking posts/threads deleted, improving quality of threads. Fails if Mod roll is too low, and may cause Shitposting in retaliation.
Derail (Wit) - Attacks well-meaning threads that may be rule-breaking or topically off-board. Can also be used to upset Newfags, or just OP.
Sage (Cred) - Attempts to calmly defuse cancerous threads and convince people to abandon the thread, ignore the cancer, or, albeit difficulty, convince Trolls to abandon their crusade.

Etc.

>>25612498
>Problem is, how the hell do we stat that?
just go with the objective stat, a well learned newfag is still a newfag, albeit one who is not a summer as others.
>>
>>25612500
>Report (MAD) - Attempts to have rule-breaking posts/threads deleted, improving quality of threads. Fails if Mod roll is too low, and may cause Shitposting in retaliation.

That would only make sense if they rolled for whether or not they reported and left it at that or reported and left a smug "I REPORTED YOU" message
>>
>>25612492
Why not Carro/tg/ardeners?
or Violen/tg/astrophiles?
What about hazma/tg/ingers?

I can keep going.
>>
>>25612607
Maybe it could use some elaboration.
Think of it like a, I dunno', Spot check.
You could roll Report and have modifiers based on whether it's super risque material (CP, compared to a Clown in the Woods) or run-of-the-mill rule-breaking (Spoiler'd porn, compared to a gerkin-wearing peasant hiding in some bushes). You could roll high and luckily attract a mod to do something (I shouldn't have said "Mod roll", that was my bad) or too low and nothing happens. If you fail the roll, you may accrue MAD and get penalties to subsequent rolls (roll low enough and you DO announce your report, effectively nullifying further attempts/pushing your towards report spamming and/or inciting Cancer.)

But there's plenty of room for better-thought-out skills, those were some hastily-cobbled examples.

Need some way of accruing experience and skill points. Also some sort of listening to the board and it's tastes and changing to either accommodate them or not.
>>
>>25612875
would it be a good idea to do experiance through internets? Like you have to buy your levels and if you lose internets without any you go down a level?
>>
>>25612912
Wouldn't Internets work better as currency? Maybe have something like lurk be the exp analogue.
>>
>>25612912
Yeah positive things would be:

Brofist: You and another anon connect well -D6 MADness

Sides=Orbit: Removes all MADness

Internets=only obtained when another anon SPECIFICALLY gives you internets.
The anon will determine how many internets you get.
"All my internets" counts as level up. Add 1 ability point, and D6 skill points
Otherwise after 10 intenets, you level up.

Lolz: 10 lolz make your SIDES advance one tick towards orbit (there are 10 ticks on the SIDES scale, where 10 is SIDES=ORBIT)
>>
>>25612912
I don't know, it could work, but there should be some level or stat that goes up as time progresses that you cannot really get rid of some sort of tracker of time and site age.
Also some sort of disillusionment meter or other system that makes it harder for even the oldest and best characters to preform at their best.

Maybe even a fetish or a normality meter or free thinkingness meter to counter the other one.
>>
>>25612912
Yeah, I'd say things like Contribution/Delivaring, vacating Troll threads, generating Original Content, etc. could all earn a player some Internets, which could be spent V:tMB-style on skills that become more expensive as you spend points on them. Of course, if the system/player wanted to be more passive or have a more diplomatic time, Lurk, as per >>25612980, could suffice, but it lacks the active growth that Experience in games seems to indicate. While it translates better for the system from the source material, perhaps Lurking could net other advantages, like bonuses to rolls due to identification of common elements within a board (or website, if the setting branched out.)
