Hell With It

I'm not even going to try to pretend that LJ is a place I post at anymore. You can find me at Facebook and on Twitter, if you want to know about what's going on with me, or on the IIBA Community Network if you want to know about my professional life.

Ironically I actually do have something to post about here, now. That is GURPS 4e.

What was the problem with half-points in skills? I know it meant you could buy twice as many skills, but there were a lot of skills to buy.

Because it helped encourage a character creation strategy of boosting IQ/DX as high as possible, buying eidetic memory, and dumping a half point into 50-odd skills. When every character has so many skills that they need to use an extra page to track them the skill system isn't doing anything useful (and every character in our group's games did exactly that).
