That is not true. The first one looks at index [0], while the second one is 
index[1]. 

>>if roll[0] > 15:
>>   if roll[1] >= 2:
>>       print("Success")
>>   elif roll[2] >= 2:
>>       print("Critical failure!")

This will print "Success" if the first roll is greater than 15 AND second roll 
is 2 or greater. 

It will print "Critical failure!" if the first roll is greater than 15 AND the 
second roll is less than 2 AND the third roll is 2 or greater.

Hello,

I'm quite new on python, so don't hit too hard if I'm wrong ;)


A question on the logic... Does this means

if roll[0] > 15:
   if roll[1] >= 2:
       print("Success")
   elif roll[2] >= 2:
       print("Critical failure!")


that rolling multiple 1's get the priority on rolling multiple 6's? I mean 
result > 15 and 2 1's is always a critical success even if multiple 6 are 
rolled?

also

if roll[0] > 15:
   .........
elif roll[0] <=15:  <--- this is redundant. already checked for > 15 so if here 
is always <= 15
    if roll[1] >= 2:

you can change with:

elif roll[1] >= 2:



And... which is the RPG name ? :p
