Well first, you're like never here and hardly participate so why should your idea be considered better? You dont really understand the situation. You dont have the experience. You could've just said, "here's another idea" and alsonposted it in one of the many other threads. This just sounds like you're here to stir up drama. Second, you obviously didn't read the discussion because the council would be for both players and DMs. It's also more like a group of referees than judges and pretty much does exactly what you said further below. Third, I like and use dice for the both of us when I'm running things. Most folks here dont play d&d and I dont think it neccessary to force systems that are complex to outsiders upon everyone. Fourth, I think having a tier system as strict as you're suggesting would cause more unnecessary drama than a DM simply saying, "No." For an event. Fifth, why is that machine gun wielding knight out of his league? Flaming poop monsters arent that strong, I've killed many of them with low level d&d groups. My proudest kill was with a cantrip, Vicious Mockery, which is basically just magic shit talk.

How about the role players -blam!- the right off and come back when they want to do something that’s not roleplaying. This reminds me of the games that kids play, where it’s set in a random ass situation (fightning aliens only mars, surviving mutants in a secret laboratory etc.) where each side just gets more and more overpowered with the most weird stuff to help them battle.

Nope. Nil has it right.

I’m not sure I understand. All you showed was a set of dice, which I don’t see how is helpful. You suggested that players just don’t join the rp which is what has been happening for a while now and is the issue I thought we were addressing.

And, suppose if more powerful characters want to join, they are allowed to nerf themselves, correct? I’m all for it!
