Re: [DL] Hucksters D20(Fred Jandt??)

[Jasyn Jones <jasynj@yahoo.com>]

From the SRD:

Taking 10: When the character is not in a rush and is not being threatened or
distracted, the character may choose to take 10. Instead of rolling 1d20 for
the skill check, calculate the character's result as if the character had
rolled a 10.

From Me:

Not being threatened or distracted = never in combat or when enemies are close.
 Not in a game of poker.  Not while riding a horse or stage.  Not in
conversation or when loud noises threaten.  Not when you have a chance of
manitous blowing your head off.
