Problem with the Background table in Mythic GME 2nd Edition module #50

Hi, the order of the values of Background table don't match with the Mythic GME 2e book. Rolling between 10 and 100 the values are adding a +1, altering the value of the table. For example: If I roll a 20, I look the Mythic Book and the value corresponds to "Combat". The FoundryVTT module with a 20 gives me a value of "Commitment" but this value corresponds to 21 according to the book. I've noticed that between 1 to 9 there is no problem with the module, it matches with the Mythic Book value. When rolling a 100 the module gives an empty value instead of "Youth".

I was reviewing the database and it seems that you have skipped the word "Bad" on this table that corresponds to the 10 on the Mythic GME 2e Book. This is the reason of why the 100 value does have a empty value.

@cespedesj - I will correct the missing Backgrounds entry value in the next release. As for mapping one-to-one with Mythic I think it doesn't it's worth the effort. The shuffling might have been part of how copy-paste brought the values from the PDF into plain-text. Maybe for controlling as you mentioned, to make sure you are rolling the same, but there's no mechanical benefit in ordering them in any particular matter in this case.
