Opposed check

By electricart, in Dark Heresy Rules Questions

Does anyoe else find this rule to be odd, It would seem to me that it would make more sense just to make a roll and add your appropriate score to the Percentile roll. Highest score wins.

Sorry, why highest? Wouldn't it be more in line with the rest of the rules to roll as normal and whoever suceeds the most/fails the least win?

Because that would be opposite of every other roll in the game. All other rolls are roll percentiles and try to roll lower than your skill.
