The FLAILSNAILS Conventions View Random Post

We the GMs of the DIY RPGing, in Order to form a more perfect

Ruckus, establish Justice, insure intercampaign Tranquility, provide
for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and Play some
Games, do Ordain and Establish this set
of Free Location And Inclusion LawsSupporting New And Interesting
Leisure Situations (FLAILSNAILS).

Article 1

Any PC that began play at 0 xp (or less) and level 1 (or less) on or after
July 26, 2011 may move freely from their native campaign (or any they
have participated in subsequently) into games of a like genre run by
any GM subscribing to these FLAILSNAILS conventions whether via
electronic media or in real life provided the player can get a spot in the
game. That's the point of them.

(Like, if you made a PC for Arcadayn's Swords and Wizadry game, you
can move it to my D&D game since I subscribe to the FLAILSNAILS
conventions. If he does, too, you can bring it back to his game the next
day, and then take the PC over to your Uncle Chippy's game if he is
down, and then bring it back to my game and then...you get the point.)

Article 2

As stated, PCs may be imported/converted from any game of roughly

the same genre and system as the new GM's game, however the new
GM is free to determine precisely what "roughly the same" means. GM
and Player shall negotiate any complex translation issues regarding
system-specific mechanics or powers.

In the case of D&D and similar games, any TSR D&D system or
retroclone (Labyrinth Lord, Castles and Crusades, Swords and
Wizardry, etc.) is considered acceptable in FLAILSNAILS games, plus,
at the individual GM's discretion, refugees from Pathfinder, 3.5, 4e,
Rolemaster, Tekumel, Warhammer Fantasy Role Play, LOTFP, Harn,
GURPS, Pendragon, etc. providing the PC's stats can be translated into
terms sensible in the new system. (And vice versa.) Ask GM if your PC
is ok.

Same thing goes for other games--like if you want to run your levelled-
up Shadowrun PC in my Gigacrawler game, I'm down because fucking
FLAILSNAILS.

The details are up to the GM's discretion, but the purpose of the
FLAILSNAILS conventions is to encourage sharing of ideas, rules, and
funny stories across groups of gamers, so whatever can be done to
encourage and facilitate PC immigration (writing Palladium-to-D&D
conversion rules for instance) is encouraged.

Article 3 PCs will level up at a number of experience points

appropriate to the system of the last adventure they played in before
such time as they were eligible to level up in that system.

Jeez that's hard to understand. What we're saying is: if you gain 200 xp
so as to total 1100 xp by the end of an adventure and that adventure
was run in a system where you level up at 1000 xp, then you level up,
regardless of what system your PC was "born" under or where it's going Best game store in Urbana, IL.

next.A level is a level. While in a world you abide by the conventions

the GM there uses for characters of your class; but likewise, when your
PC gains a level he or she has earned it, even if he or she subsequently
enters a world where a like number of experience points would not
have earned you that same level.

For purposes of clarity, think of and talk about your PC's xp as

follows: "I am 300 xp into 2nd level". Since, for example, a PC
"You should all review Jeff
levelling up in vanilla 3.5 needs 1000 xp to get to level two, a 3.5 PC Rients threefold model to

level" in Labyrinth Lord.
--Settembrini, the coolest gamer in
If this creates a situation where a PC would automatically level up Prussia
merely by starting an adventure in a new system (i.e. you're 3000 xp
into 4th level and suddenly start an adventure in a system where you "Jeff war schon immer ein
only need 2000 more xp to get to level 5) the GM may ask you to Idiot."
recalculate your progress as a percent of progress toward the next
level in the old system. --some other German dude

If you want to make shit real easy for everybody, GMs can just look at
GAMEBLOG-O-RAMA
the levels of the PCs involved and reward xp in terms of "percent
towards the next level" for those PCs. Like say "congratulations, you Jasoomian Dreams
Hastor
all earned 30% of the xp you need toward level two or 20% of the exp
you need toward level 3, go do math."
