Heh, that's exactly my plan when I ever get to play Exalted.

However, even I, with my high whiff tolerance, understand that failure does not equal fun.

Thinking back, if the failure is my choice, or at least my fault, I find it more palatable.

Failures borne solely from a half baked system that makes false promises of balance, failures borne of That Guy GMs and their desire to put players in their place, and failures borne from unexpected PvP have been the most distastefully memorable.
