Experience Points

#1 Post by jemmus »

(Transferred from the OOC thread 02/10/2024)
a) 50 points for surviving a gunfight; (N/A)
b) 40 points for bringing a criminal to justice; (40 x 3 criminals = 120 / 5 characters (including Gideon) = 24 each.
c) 30 points for winning a brawl; (N/A)
d) 20 points for coming up with a brilliant idea that saves the day or resolves an adventure;
e) 10 points for using a work skill;
f) 5 points per hour of real time spent playing the game. (We'll guesstimate this based on the length of posts, RP, and contributions to the story. While trying to be fair to players who aren't as into writing or RP as others. Or who are playing a more tactiturn PC).
g) 10 points per day at the rail camp for resolving the railroad sabotage problem;
h) 40 points for showing up as witnesses for two trials;
i) Up to 15 points for taking rest and recreation.

Participating in the shooting contest earn Reputation, rather than XP.

I’m thinking that comes to 170? I got 140, instead of 125 when I added everything except work skill successes together.
You're right, 170 is correct. With the 3 work skill successes, 200 total.

Players can use this thread to keep track of PCs' XP as they go along. For example:
04/01/2024 - 2 Trading successes. Then revising the same post,
04/06/2024 - 1 Thespian success.

Please post your final XP tallies from the Austin part of Chapter 3 here. You don't have to post your calculations, just the final earned XP figure. Please also post your expenditures for advancing your PC's attribute or skills scores or for learning a new skill.

I am not strong in math myself, but it appears Paladin’s XP tally totals 274 +work skills. Andreas and Doos have math errors also, so folks may want to review.

Note that the “10 per skill” line in some PCs was added to the total, which causes a double-count when you tally your skill total. For example, DT’s total of 100 includes 10 already for a skill, so if there were seven skills total the 70 is 60 due to 10 already being included in the 100 total.

Sorry for the math errors. What happened was I did the draft tallies, then revised the XP for time played/RP, then got interrupted for a day, then spaced updating the total sums before posting. Please do check the arithmetic.

I believe, if I counted right 3 LAW successes that man something, and I have spent experience on a +2 to my bow and arrow skill, and I do not have access to my info at my new work site, so I cant do
math here.

sorry about that. And thanks for letting me take my time.

Moved to being a dialysis nurse and the training is long and continious.
