You are a hacker. Your street cred is 1. Every time you exercise poor op-sec, roll a die. Feds kick in your door if the result is less than your street cred, otherwise increase your reputation by 1. Adjust die size for tone.
If your pitch included secret information also roll for poor op-sec.
People depend on your project. Every time they do, roll a die. If they roll less than the number of bugs they yell at you, otherwise increase your street cred by 1.
