@Cuckoo
Partially.

I'll give an example.

Example

You and a group of three dudes are trapped in a burning 2-story building. You have this and this materials. One of your dude is injured in the arm, and another one is limping.

How will you get out?

Like dat.

So yours would be forcing the story to have a system with scenarios where mine only forces the battles.


EDIT: I use the terms "forcing" loosely.

@Cuckoo
Well the thing is, RPer(s) can use the materials given however he/she wants, and depending on that, the outcome changes. So instead of forcing, I'm actually widening the choice options.

The only thing I'll be forcing here is storyline.

and pace

Right
what I meant was that your making the situation to have a specific set of starting constraints and therefore causing people to think of ideas that would solve it, brainstorm, refine, and proceed.

....justengineeringthings.

And my point stands, we would have two sides of the RP coin.
Mine: Battles
Yours: Story

Tee hee hee



Yeah. Your calculative system is suitable for combat, while my variable system is suitable for story progression.
