half of me laughed like an absolute maniac when I saw that, and the other half realized that someone was probably going to try it
...same
I actually got kinda mad the first time; it's funny, on one level, but knowing how quickly misinformation spreads on the Internet that joke is also wildly irresponsible without some way of indicating it's a joke for kids who aren't aware of gang signs
I like the essence of it, especially your approach to abstraction. Your HP value is an abstract measurement of an individual's overall endurance against adversity, not just physical trauma; plenty of scenarios will feel weightier with a potential HP loss for diverse sorts of misfortune, and these mechanics themselves will encourage GMs to design sessions with that in mind.
My major concern would be the potential for ballooning complexity. There's already a large number of values to keep track of, and complexity in games tends to multiply rather grow by flat values. Consider revising the number of attributes down, simplifying the derived stats, and/or using attribute subgroups together more frequently. Or whatever, as long as it helps the game's values and mechanics stick.
Dunno if you read the second page, but the attribute subgroups tend to be used more than actual Attribute values.
You're probably right that this is a bit on the complex side, aha, I really do have a lot of variables to keep track of. I wasn't necessarily going for "simple," but I did want a relatively clear-cut system with obvious rules for event resolution. Unfortunately I gave a LOT of values to keep track of.

If I have to be in bed by 6 AM, how late is too late to drink coffee?
I am not the type of person to get angry about the Kardashians, but I am genuinely irritated people care about this Taylor Swift drama
this is wild ok: i have no clue what on earth this drama is, and in fact i would have NO IDEA that it was even happening if it wasnt for this certain someone on my twitter timeline who is whining about it?
they's a really whiny person in general but i think they kinda likes me and i wouldnt want to make them feel bad by unfollowing them :/

It occurred to me the other day that I could swipe some RAM from my old, dead laptop and stick it in this one to boost myself from 6 GB to 8 GB
Not that I really need to, but it would be neat to do

Fucking Disney
If they continue it, I'd like to see other games get this treatment.
help
how are you all doing
