The transaction code is a two digit sequential number that is assigned by the dice roller* whenever a player makes a roll. This code is then inserted into an in-game post at the appropriate point. Other players, or the storyteller (me) can then query the roller if they are interested in the particulars of a given roll. Everyone else just keeps reading.

Readers will be aware of the codes, of course, but in the same way that they are aware of footnote references. So they shouldn't break up the flow too much.

Transaction codes should be written into the text in the following format: [xx]. For example: "The shot hit the vampire [73] but it didn't have any noticeable effect".

Note: When the transaction code reaches 99 it will loop back around to 00.

* The dice roller is a program the players have access to which makes their dice rolls for them.
