 A very simple roleplaying game system, hacked up from old ideas by JP.
+====== Number Ratings, Points Whatever You Call It ======
+Every power, ability, strength or such in this game has a rating. This is a number denoting how capable it is, and is directly compared to other numbers to determine how they relate. In this way a power 10 blaster shot is superior to a power 5 laser blast. The ratings work something like so:
+  * 0: Weaksauce!
+  * 5: Ok
+  * 10: Good
+  * 15: Great
+  * 20: Amazeballs!
+A number also has a companion value called a range, based on it. Here are the range rules:
+  * 5 or less: (1)
+  * 6-9: (2)
+  * 10-13: (3)
+  * 14-17: (4)
+  * 18-21: (5)
+So in this way that blaster shot above is 10(3). and the laser blast 5(1). Range is used for deciding the rolling method for tests:
+====== Disadvantaged, Neutral, or Advanataged ======
+When you have to roll the dice, you'll compare the two numbers. Then you'll know if the action, effect, etc. is one of:
+  * Disadvantaged: A chancy roll likely to result in a poor outcome.
+  * Neutral: A normal roll that could go either way.
+  * Advantaged: A roll more likely to result in a good outcome.
+The value and it's range are used to determine this. To determine the effect of a Blaster shot 10(3) against an armored door 7(2) we just compare the values:
+  * Is your score higher than the other score? Yes: Advantaged, stop.
+  * Is your score less than the other score but by less than your range (less than score+range?) Yes: Neutral, stop.
+  * Disadvantaged, stop.
