Like I told you last week, what I think decking needs is less rolls and more
of a realistic feel to it. Part of the problem is that decking pretty much
forces you to think in terms of system operations -- it doesn't go
Player: "I want to find a file, so I'll start looking in these filing
cabinets over here."
GM: "Roll a Perception test to see if you spot it."
but rather
Player: "I want to C-x C-f."
GM: "Roll a Locate File operation. It's in those filing cabinets."
There have to be some ways of bringing decking closer to feeling like the real
world, but unfortunately most that I can think of right now would turn the
entire Matrix into an ultraviolet host...
