Words matter, followup

In Words Matter , I discussed streamlining the wording across the rulebook a bit. The remaining gripe was about the term “Success”.

What is the opinion on “Win”?

So we’d have:

  • Breaks (Dice that show the highest value)
  • Mishaps (Dice that show a 1)
  • Wins (Dice that show the upper half of the value range)
  • Failures (rolled dice pools without any Wins, or more Mishaps than Wins)
  • Successes (rolled dice pools that have more Wins than Mishaps.

I wouldt tend to say “I rolled x sucesses” and if I manage to successfully roll a dice pool, THAT would feel like a win. Just from a perspective how I perceive the use of language (as learned)

That sounds reasonable!
