Paraphrased from Wikipedia
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowrun#Fourth_edition_changes>:
"The target number is fixed at 5, roll six-sided dice equal to the skill and
its linked Attribute, and
rolls them, counting the number of dice that show 5 or 6 as "hits". The number
of hits is compared
to a pre-determined amount (or Threshold) set by the GM for the roll. If the
number of hits equals
or exceeds the threshold, the roll is a success.
A "glitch" is when at least half of the rolled dice come up 1s. A glitch
results in a minor
inconvenience or setback for the player, though it does not necessarily mean
failure as long as
enough hits were still scored. However, if a person rolls a glitch while
scoring no hits at all, it is
considered a "critical glitch", and is substantially more serious or
potentially even fatal."
