'Friad it's not valid guys. The biggest problem you will have is - what
happens when you encounter a challenge. You can't sleaze it, because
runners (even deckers) not present have no skills. You can't fight it ,
cause only present runners can fight it. So it has a threat rating, you
will just go home. A fun way to burn off the non-scary challenges, but
almost impossible to make it all the way to the objective. Nice thinking
though!
