Not necessarily.  Perversity points work a bit like improvised, conditional modifiers to a roll.  You may suggest a reason for that +1 to your bootlicking skill, or if you don't have any ideas, you can leave it to Yours Truly to come up with one instead.  There is no penalty imposed for letting the GM do all the work.  Honest.  The GM is your friend, second only in importance to The Computer.  He would never, ever dream of causing a positive result to backfire in retaliation for such lapses in discipline.  No, the GM is always fair and impartial.  Trust the GM as you would The Computer.<br/><br/>Thank you for your cooperation.  Have a nice daycycle.
