Correct.

Hot dog.

Time to call all the raises.

[Seppun Hitako]

Are any spells available to be used? Any limits?

[Shimizu Ryori]

So conceivably I could write a horrible poem with bad had writing and fail fan dancing get -4 poetry points AND a Otaku to fall in love with me?

Ok I messed up my last roll (technically,) correct dice pool and I put tn 25 for the 2raises in but forgot to put 2r, do the raises count, not count, or should I reroll?

You have to list the raises to count and MS already posted about dice rerolling so you are stuck with what you got.

Nods only asking because I did list the TN change but I dont think 2 poetry vs 4 is going to make a difference on courtier points given what most contests are going at. In this case a reroll could concievably be much worse for me, so figured I would give MS the option to mess with me there if he wanted.

Is Poetry a social skill?

[Seppun Hideo]

Is Poetry a social skill?

Artisan skills are not social, perform skills are social.

I think that's the way round it is?

Can Rank 1 Battle Maiden Technique bonus be used to Flash out an War Fan Skill attack kata?

Officially academic as there are now 5pt, 6pt, and 7pts on the board unless MS wants me to reroll to risk failure

I was really hoping nobody got a 6, so I could score with a 4 if I got one, but now I have to try for 5, and that's... scary.

FWIW I think Runno's 5 might be invalid, since it looks like she's called a Raise on an unskilled roll and iirc you can't do that (having made that mistake myself before ). But no doubt somebody else will hit 5 points eventually.
