Are players reloading their save every time a risky roll fails?

When a failed lockpick or failed persuasion sends players straight back to an older save, the odds are not creating drama, they are creating chores. This entry shows how to spot that in the log without watching anyone.

Why this works

A reload soon after a failure is a vote with the hand: the player refused to live with it. Comparing the age of the loaded save tells a real retry from just coming back, and counting failures rather than loads keeps one stubborn person from looking like many.

When not to use it

Wrong for games built on trying again, with automatic restarts or no manual saves: reloading is normal there. Look at who quits right after the failure instead, or ask players how it felt.
