Experience..

[Andrew Avramenko]

I have found that often a player's characteristics go up too quickly. You
may call me nasty but I hand out CP on a CEP/50(RD) and MEP/25(RD) per
encounter, on an individual accomplishment basis. If the characters are in
the midst of a dungeon or series of closely related events I don't do any
calculations until after it's complete. Same with expertise points, they are
dolled out at the same time as CEP, MEP, and CPs.


Season's Greeting!

Seems most like the pooling idea ...I just had problmes with the encounter
term
which can be various aspects of the combat....I tend to do indivudual cep
games
rather than pools where person a might get X and person b gets Y...but I
guess
either works :)
