quick quick hockey FYI
are you sick of hearing about hockey? TOO BAD. but i promise i'll be quick.
i've got to do the final balance for sunday's teams, so if anybody has a character they still want to sign up please do it by 7am MST friday! form is here -> http://asylums.insanejournal.com/gooseberry/127530.html
characters can sign up to play (or drop out) at any point in the season but please don't do so after the friday mornings before games so that i can try to keep teams as balanced as possible. i don't know why keeping them balanced is so important to me, it just is. (actually, i do know: it means i get to play with spreadsheets! this beauty ain't gonna balance herself.)
okbyeeee

i actually have a question! how do you do the scoring with modifiers, etc.? i'm trying to work out a rudimentary way of doing it for hockey but i think i'm making it waaaaaay more difficult than it needs to be (and that way more difficult way is a pain in my butt.)

The next time we do monthly bonding confetti bombs, I'll probably make it Self-score + 1d25 (maybe 1d30?), with a target of 40 to make it all the way? So the difference between someone scoring their character 2 and someone with 9 is substantial (a pair who each have a 10 is already halfway there), but that's fair if your characters are apparently such badasses. You're still at the mercy of RNG a little, but a lot less than if I was rolling 1d100.
(This also means, if we do it again, it's going to be much harder for the sophomores or seniors to finish all four levels but OAKES HAS BEEN TWEAKING THE GAME, you're all basically a free focus group for his new toy.)

I'm in awe.

but you should see my dad's frigging spreadsheet powers. he's basically made an entire application out of one* and it's massive and has thousands (not exaggerating) of everything you could imagine a spreadsheet could have and like thousands of things YOU NEVER KNEW IT COULD HAVE. he showed me this spreadsheet something like 2 years ago and i will never forget. i have been in awe ever since.
* but it's not a spreadsheet for no reason, it's "for work," so maybe i can still have the "for no reason" title??

when he showed me the thousands of lines pulling from hundreds of documents across his company's servers i was just like "*_* you do this for fun? you are my dad"

He wrote a song about the guy who invented spreadsheets and Marx to the tune of Pinky and the Brain.
