so is there any concensus that on a fail/fail, it should be high roll wins?
it makes more sense to me this way.
is there a counterargument supporting the rules as written that anyone would care to share?
to me, it would seem to be useful, simple and consistent to use high roll wins no matter whether the roll is a crit, regular success, fail, or fumble. of course, i would keep these degrees of success in opposed tests. not so in the rules, but it seems i'm not alone in wanting to keep them there.
