OUR RULES

Our system is simple. Characters have 17 skills, each starting at 20% (a basic human-level chance to succeed).

Players get 10 "pips" which they can assign to boost skills of their choosing. Each pip adds +20% to their window of success, with a maximum of 3 additional PIPs per skill (success window is capped at 80%).

To do something, players roll a d100. If they roll equal to or under their skill level, they succeed.

DISCLAIMERS

All characters, events, and organisations in The Bad Articles are entirely fictional.

No AI has been used in the creation of the show.

CONTENT WARNING

While the tone of the show is light-hearted and comedic, it contains references to lost children, as well as scenes featuring mild horror elements and light gore sound effects.

Listener discretion is advised, especially for those sensitive to depictions or sounds of injury (misophonia).
