I'm not saying it should. We will never know the whole truth to this departure, nor what the actual plan was when 3.0 was being planned. The claim about 3.5 may be incorrect, but it always sounded to me like they purposely released an inferior product just so they could release the better one...

Didn't Monte say at one time that 3.5 was planned almost as soon as 3 was released (or before)? This makes me nervous that something like that Bs is planned again.

Without going back and reading 17 pages of stuff, how many variables were taken into account with the formula? Because initiative can be a big factor. Ex: Let's say you have 6 players in a group and in a skill challenge ( DC 20 ) their best associated skill bonuses are such: 8/9/10/11/12/13...

Not the entire thing, no.

Was the possibility of one or more people having under/over 50 % chance of succeeding in each group taken into account in the math solution? I noticed that odds of completing a task were greater with the increased complexity. But there are so many variables that it can't accurately be...

Yeah, I definitely see errata coming out on this soon. I like the concept, but not the game play. What is stalker0's system?

It only decreases difficulty at the 4 success and 6 success level. With a 10 or 12 success, it increases difficulty. Right now, the level 5 complexity, worth more xp than the level 1, is actually easier to attain than the level 1.

It seems that a better way (assuming that the +5 pertains to individual skill checks and not those associated with a skill challenge) would be to have a static 4 failures and simply increase the successes needed to increase the 'complexity' of the challenge.
