    (4) you pass, barely

    That implies that 1, 2, and 3 are all failing (perhaps with different degrees of embarrassment). If all failure is equivalent in practice, you might as well maximize the non-failing outcomes and go with A.

      (perhaps with different degrees of embarrassment)

      Exactly. Roll a (0) you’re paralysed for life, roll a (3) you break an ankle, roll a (6) you perfectly execute the salto on your first try.

        That seems pretty arbitrary

        0-2 would indicate negative, 1 being extremely bad and life changing and 2 pretty bad (worse than broken bones)

        3 which should be neutral is broken bones

        4-6 indicates success, but 4 seems to be just barely passing (e.g. landing it but with a fumble and falling) which doesnt seem to balance out a broken bone for 3
