Okay but seriously. Is this like golf scoring or...?

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 23 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hate that shit. Just as bad as THAC0.

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Nothing. Is as bad. As THAC0.

You say that, but you've never seen my homebrewed freeform spellcasting ruleset.

If you're sure. It's built for One Roll Engine, where basically stat+skill = d10s rolled for matches. The face value and count of your matched rolls both mean different things, e.g swinging a sword rolling four 2s happens early in the turn and hits pretty hard, but you got them in the leg. It's a fun system and easy to homebrew for, but hardly anyone plays it.

... Hmm, my cloud stuff is badly incomplete. I'll have to fire up scrivener on my old computer later this morning. Unless I've changed your mind lol

They are most likely referring to the PHQ-9 questionnaire. 25/27 is not great, indicating severe symptoms.

Maybe it's one of those extremely unsubtle tests with questions like "True/false: You feel a nearly irresistible compulsion to gouge someone's eyes out when you don't like how they're looking at you."

It's most likely the one you're given each time you go for a physical (or at least, we are where I live) - it's more like:

In the past week, how often have you...

  • Worried about the future
  • Felt that you can't do anything right
  • Had trouble focusing on common tasks
  • Felt hopeless or depressed
  • ...etc

etc, with options like "Never", "Rarely", "Most days", "Almost all of the time"

worrying about the future should be taken off the test

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I'd be more concerned if someone isn't worried about the future, to be honest.

[–] terranoid@lemmy.cafe 2 points 2 months ago

Subject is very optimistic about the future and not worried at all... Investigating for cognitive disability or psychosis, possibly drug induced

Worry about what you have control over, prepare for the rest.

Or my favorite for low-income jobs for quite a while now they have had questionnaires with all sorts of questions like I often think about murdering my coworkers, all the time, some of the time, almost never, and never. Sometimes I think about murdering my boss, never, almost never, most of the time, and all the time. I did murder my boss and so forth.

It's so just obvious and everything it makes you wonder what insurance douchebag came up with that and forced these grocery stores and the like to use that for lower rates which is how it happens.
