One thing I'll be doing is to draw a card when half the dice are 1's -  if its black, its a bust. This stops even numbers of dice from having less chance of botching than the next highest odd number (i.e. currently 2d6 botches less than 3d6, with the card draw rule it becomes slightly more but still less than 1d6)

the one I came up with everyone seemed to like.   basically it gives players 
less chance of botching when they're caught with their pants down and rolling 
somehting they have no levels in



in addition to everything the white chip does, you can also:

spend a white chip before a roll to negate the unskilled penalty (-4)

shpend a white chip before a roll to roll one addidtional die (difference 
being that you spend it  before the roll, so you may be spending it for 
nothing, but since you are rolling an additional die, you are less likely to 
botch)



I may have stolen this idea from someone, and if I do I apologize, but right 
now I think I came up with it on my own.
