    That was always just an arbitrary literary device in fiction and a game balancing mechanic in TTRPGs. Unless they had a proper points based system like GURPS.

    Unlike GURPS though, they probably didn’t have their offices raided by the FBI because the jackbooted thugs were too stupid to understand the difference between fiction and real life.

      lol, I’d never heard about this: https://www.sjgames.com/gurps/Roleplayer/Roleplayer19/Raid.html

      The agents who raided our office grumbled loudly in my presence about the “manual for computer crime” that we were publishing, but (aside from holding our hardware and text files) they have taken no further action against the book.
