How often do players in your group choose not to resist consequences on 4/5 results?
I’ve run about 30 sessions of BitD for 4 different groups and I can only think of 3 or 4 times a player has just let the consequence happen…

My wife and I have been burning through The West Wing on Netflix and it got me pondering… What do you think of a BitD hack for a political party? Just another group of scoundrels as far as I can tell…

What do you think of having each player use different coloured dice so that when they Assist, it’s easy to identify whether their help was a key element of the success/failure? No need for any mechanical changes – just another way of feeding the fiction…
