Good question; it should have reduced the cost to raise your Standing (though I guess it's a competition, so it probably depends on how well you did).

When a hero chooses this undertaking, he attempts to gain the opportunity to raise his Standing rating at a modified cost. To do so, he must select and roll one of the following skills: Athlet ics , Hunt ing , Bows or Axes. On a success, the cost of increasing Standing is reduced by 3, a great success reduces it by 6, and an extraordinary success by 12.

Just read through that thread. There is no "Roll" posted by you here V, : http://www.dicefellowship.org/viewtopic ... 20#p272851

But you mention "great success" in an IC description of how Aerth does. Did you roll a Great Success? If so, that would have automatically raised his Standing to 1 (0 to 1 costs 6 I think, and a Great Success would reduce it to 0...if I'm understanding correctly) everything.

There might be an OOC post or a PM where you posted the results, it's not clear.

Found it.
Aerth - Field of Heroes - Athletics 3: 3 + 5,3,6t = 17 (Great Success). Reduce the cost of raising your standing by 6 Points. If Aerth wants to raise his Standing to a 1, it only costs him 6 Points of Treasure. It nets you nothing really since you have only 3 Points of Treasure

AH! Makes sense why nothing happened now. Too bad.

It is really good if you actually have Treasure. Otherwise, yup, it was worthless.

Beorn did in fact give you a bunch of silver, 1 Treasure per person, I guess no one bothered to write it down. I will. If people care enough about the game they should write this stuff down as we go and not always leave it up to me.

I would appear everyone has 2 Treasure.

I think you had 1 extra, but bought in on the Easterly Inn with it.

My apologies, I'm happy to write anything down, and will assume I need to unless you say otherwise.
