So, you would have to have, at the very minimum: - D100 being the prime die when resolving situations
- Characteristics being based on a Dice Roll but not solely random
- Human characteristics typically in the 3-18 range
- Hit Points being derived from Characteristics
- Damage being weapon + personal - armour
- Previous Experience being Background/Profession based rather than Class Based
- No Character/Race Classes
- No Experience Levels
- Percentage based skills
- Incremental experience
- Skills resolved by rolling below a skill target on a D100

Sounds good. The "d100-Compatible" definition should, just as Simon says, be kept to a minimum IMO. The reason being that it's better to be somewhat to inclusive than to exclude. And as Simon wrote in another post, and as several others have pointed out, I agree that the "big" companies would probably not be particularity interested in such a logo. But that's not the main purpose. My idea was to create a community standard and a logo that the community, fanzines and hobby-publishers can use to indicate what type of game they are supporting.
