I have recently moved to Freiburg im Breisgau and am looking for interesting people here.

I lead a RPG Group that bases on the indypendant System SAGA. When possible I attend a DSA based Group via Video Chat.

I'm a Java Software Developer and Linux Server Administrator with a lot of experience in system design, teaching people and generally "getting stuff done".

My technical skills are within Development: Java (Swing and J2EE), Maven, Hibernate and Spring (incl. Security and MVC). I started programming in Java in 2001 and so I have a lot of skills in Frameworks that are now seldom used anymore but also in the current ones. Recently I started gaining skills in ActionScript 3, 3.5 and 4.

I use Netbeans as my development environment and run a Bodhi Linux as my desktop. My servers all run Debian Linux.

Many of the companies I worked at worked a lot with apprentices so I have a lot of training in educating beginners. Together with my intention to actually understand the systems I work with makes me a pretty good co-worker when it comes to sharing what I know.

If I realize an answer of mine had been wrong (or sufficiently bad-style) I usually delete it, because I'm self critic enough to not take a stand on an opinion that has been shown wrong.

comment Can the astrology helping die decrease the chance of success?
@Thanuir I see what you mean, my math days are too long ago so I cannot give a formal proof. I will keep the answer up still for the special situation of guaranteed successes (although they are not in the default construct of this game) because as far as I can tell this is the only situation where e is small enough (As far as I can tell this is only true if e = 0)

@Thanuir It still is. The probability of it helping is significant larger than it hurting (with the stated exception)

@SevenSidedDie Yeah, I know. In fact I'm surprised I didn't find the works of them people, at least a little. (But a lot of GMing is if taken serious a science. Think about names for people in a given culture. Or the hardware in any scifi game. Or even getting armor and weapons correct in any medieval / fantasy genre. So, thats not a downer to me :)) And just guessing it would be ... I don't know ... not my style.
