They may have to be divided by two, though, because numbers are often divided by two when dealing with defenses: all-out attack, +4 and all-out defense, +2, for instance.

Thus, dodging a telephone could be considered as a difficult action and have a -2 modifier (instead of -4). Or, if the GM really insist on the fact that it is outstandingly difficult, -4 (instead of -8).
ahh, but how do you price that? this is intended for characters to be able to access.
