Possibly I just play too much _actual_ D&D, but what's the difference between Con and Sta? And is Int being ditched? If so, why not Cha? I love that you guys are making these challenges more interactive and geeky, but I feel like I'm getting conflicting information.

I'm not a gameplayer at all, so take this with a grain of salt. But I think stamina is along the lines of endurance, and constitution is more like your ability to prevent illness and injury.

CON is constitution, which I'm choosing to interpret as general health-related things. For example my challenge goals that will influence CON are getting proper sleep and brushing/flossing super consistently.

You see, Livingroovy, you gotta give people what they want. Besides, the druids need you!

Am I right? Spezzy, Unicornassassin?

Yes!

I mean, you know, maybe, whatever...... I could go either way....

To me, constitution is like willpower, although the description doesn't exactly fit that. Really, though, I don't think it matters that much if you change them up. It might just not translate that well into OMFG later.

Ok, this is an awesome challenge. I can't think of a race for myself yet. As of now, with no choice made i'm a no class human. (Its like playing munchkin.)

Choices will be made shortly and stats assigned.

I think I fit more in the Assassin category than any other but my goals are lean towards it and scout. I read through the post but couldn't tell if multi-classing was a thing. Thoughts?
F.A.Q.

Q: I don't want to do any of this silly Class/Attribute Point stuff, can I just do it how I want?

A: Well, you need to pick a class so you have a spot to put your thread. You don't HAVE to do attribute points, but it's more fun that way and gives us a fun way to grade ourselves the same across everyone :)

Q: Can I take part in other guild challenges?

A: Sure, but you only get participation points for ones that are in your guild.

Q: Can I have multiple classes?

A: Sorry - you must pick one.

Nope, or I would be a druid scout :( Oh well.

I really like the cool avatars some people are using and I was wondering where I could get one to use for myself.

Have they been created specifically for this challenge by guilds or are they from a real RPG?

Ryan Sannar came up with them after Dawsy suggested it might be cool to have guild logos.

I have a high Con, and low Stamina. As an example, I was once hit by a car on the way to school. I continued to walk to school.

Walk, not run.

The cancer was aggressive, but the chemotherapy was aggressive, as well.

There was aggression on both sides.

I'm in! Hopefully I'll do better in this challenge. At least I managed to learn from my mistakes and didn't create a ton of extra goals.

Also, I did find it very difficult to spend 15 points on my attributes. I think the 15 are a bit much to reflect my current status...

I'm struggling to get started on this one and wondering if I should give it a miss and wait until the next challenge. I ended up dropping out with a whimper from the last one (I was applying for a promotion and putting ALL my spare time into that) and achieved none of my goals. This one's come around as my wife's Grandad is in the last few days of his life. I'm torn though if this is just an excuse not to commit? Eh, who knows?

I'm intrigued by the concept of the RPG elements, I think it's a great idea. I'm struggling with wrapping my head around getting it off the ground. I'd go Human and Adventurer (I've no speciality in real life - I just want to be fitter and more lean) but can't figure out how to use up all 15 attribute points.

I'll have to put some thought into it I suppose.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Am I a Ranger like I think? Because the strength/endurance description makes me think Warrior/Scout, but I would describe myself (if the multi classes did not exist) as having a long term goal of being a Druid Monk Warrior Assassin who occasionally goes scouting (but only occasionally), and my short term goals are more assassin type goals as I am stuck exercising with what I have at home until I go to uni.

I should probably up my con. I was once hit by a SEPTA trolley at 30 mph and walked away with just a concussion and fractured temple.

edit: not walked away. I was in and out of consciousness for a few hours.
