    All rolls, and character sheets will be done here.

    You are the best of friends and you all just graduated from high school. Your parents all pitched in to buy you a weeks vacation in the resort town of Cancun Mexico. A meteor shower was forecasted for to night and you find yourselves sitting around a camp fire drinking tequila. You all look up to see a bright light streak through the night and explode on impact.

    =rulessuper-minimal game designed for immediate play and light-hearted improvisation. See full tag description for the entire ruleset.

    Originally called “Roll to See if I Have Shoes On,” this game consists entirely of seven bullet points in this blog post by DWeird. It uses a d6 pool mechanic for determining success, with both high and low rolls providing opportunities for advancement through the acquisition of “skills” associated with higher dice pools.

    Say what you do and roll a number of d6s.
    If the sum of your roll is higher than the opposing roll (either another player or the DM), the thing you wanted to happen, happens.
    The number of the d6s you roll is determined by the level of skill you have.
    At start, you have only one skill: Do anything 1.
    If you roll all sixes on your roll, you can get new skill one level higher than the one you used for the action. The skill must be a subset of what happened to you in the action (Say, Athletics 2 if you were climbing a wall, or Teeth of Biting 2 if you were eating a cake).
    For every roll you fail, you get 1 XP.
    XP can be used to change a die into a 6 for advancement purposes but not for a success.





    As the smoke clears, you all see fire and people yelling from the third floor of the hotel you are staying at. You are 500 feet away.

    "Oh no! Those poor pe- OH NO! MY STUFF!" West East shouts, as he bumblingly scrambles his inebriated way to the third floor of the hotel where his shared room, and more importantly his stuff, is.

    I scramble up after West, sighing. "Look, you'll never manage to save every... oh, whatever."

    She never was much of a drinker. She was more entertaining the drink by sipping on it than drinking. She watches the stars then the explosion.

    She jumps to her feet when she sees the fire. "What the" beep! She sees her best friends running off towards the building. "What are we going to do?!" She pulls out her phone and calls the police. Who knows the number to the fire department?

    Sorry... I have been playing a 3d6 game. Habit. I would really like a OoC and Dice rolling thread though!

    @Unavenger: Who is "I"? Is your character's name "Unavenger"?

    @Elbeyon: I on the other hand really would rather not have to keep track of three threads for a single game.
    Btw you can delete posts with rolls in them.

    @Everyone: How would people feel about a Discord server for this game?

    I would take a discord sever over an OoC or Dice Thread.
