Hey Pete,
Thanks for the input, but I think that rerolls might interfere with the spirit of "transparency" that is trying to be achieved. I could be completely
wrong though. The difficulty lays in making a simple and transparent system that isn't horribly bland. Can it be done? Does having an interesting system defeat the purpose of transparency? Hell if I know. It should be fun to find out though. Anymore thoughts, input?

I think if one avoids simplistic and complex, and achieves simple, you'll get subtle play.
