Formatting Question: Tables


RPG Superstar™ 2008 General Discussion


I have a table in my submission (created using microsoft word) and I have not been able to find any guidelines for the inclusion of such a feature in the submission guidelines. What format should I use for a simple table that requires a dice roll to produce a random result?

If you check the BBCode tags, you'll find the closest thing to a table is a list.

I'd just say do your best to be as clear as possible.

I had the same issue. I ended up doing ...

Something .... like ...... this
Which ............ looks .... terrible
But ................ it's ........ effective

... at getting the basic form across. I can only hope they don't count off for style you're barred from using.


Well, thanks for the swift replies, folks! I'll play with the BBC tags, and failing any luck with that I'll just improvise something similar to what you did, CNB.
