I voted yes also, because freedom to mix in destruction and conjuration would be much appreciated when it comes to distractions and the like. Also gives me an excuse to test out a stealthy magical face melty assassin. (I has mods with stealthy destruction spells :D )

I voted yes for free style, cuz voting any other way would be ridiculous after all my cryin' and bitchin'... :D

Also, I notice that the total votes have been 9 for each question to date... and we now have a 6 to 0 vote for free-style. Not much point in getting all into it just now, but after this competition, we might want to take a look at the notion of whether or not skill restrictions to make competitions challenging is really all that popular, eh?

As of this post we have 7 votes for the most recent question, but only 4 confirming posts in the thread. If you voted remember to post how you voted or it doesn't count. ;)

I voted no. Just to be contrary. Hey, there's gotta be one in every group, right? ;)

Seriously, as with all the previous contests, I'll happily go along with whatever is decided on, or skip the round if it doesn't sound like my cuppa :joe:

I voted for yes for the free style option. I like being able to choose whatever you think will work best for you...especially since we're dealing with Dwemer ruins and the friendly Falmers :)

Alright then... I think Kane might be the only one we haven't heard from... could be wrong... so barring a bunch of people signing up and saying no... freestyle it is...

Glargg. .. you can limit your own skills... I plan on sticking to a "build"... it may not be exactly what we outlined before, but I gave always found that sticking within the skills I set is better than running all over the place...

Sure. And I think I agree with the majority that it's probably best not to schedule two skill-limited competitions in a row. :)



Edit: And I had a thought. Since we're back to allowing mods, I might use the Classic Classes and Birthsigns mod, and create an actual Class. The mod is probably advantage-neutral, since it raises 6 skills by 10 points each, and lowers all the rest by 10 points each.

Same way... by dungeons + centurion dynamo ( animated ) and books...

With the scaled leveling.. using a multiplier isn't viable... it would be... complicated..The lvl scaling will add a bit more, in the way of tactical decisions.

I would like to talk through Free Style a bit.

What does Free Style mean to you?

Does Free Style mean that we declare that we are going to use certain skills and if any other skills not declared go above the 2 point grace they become a penalty? Example, I need to sneak a bit and it goes up 3 points, but I didn't declare sneak as a perkable primary skill so I get a penalty.

Does Free Style mean that we declare Primary Skills, but there's no penalty of other skills used that aren't perked.

Lastly, does Free Style mean one simply says I'm going to be a Warrior, a Spellsword, a Thief/Assassin and then off they go using whatever skills that fits that theme. No restrictions on what's perked and what's not.

From previous discussions I get the idea that it is the last one that folks are aiming for and that it will be their decisions of what to level/perk that create the challenge as the difficulty rises with levels. Level too many skills too quickly and one one might be at Legendary difficulty before they're actually ready.

How does everyone else see Free Style?

Bram.. I think the last.. I think that will work best..If we are going Freestyle and it seem's we are, I don't see a reason to put a limit on skill use... the Scaled lvl'ing will do that.. in a way. The penalty... a higher difficulty.
