[QUOTE="renau1g, post: 5312565, member: 54810"] There's 117 PC's listed on the Approved PC's page + about 53 on Requesting Approval. I assumed around 60% of those are still active. There's likely not 100 unique users as many users have 2, or even 3, PC's. An issue I have is a jarring to continuity if suddenly a PC can't squeeze his items into the parcel system if he's slightly ahead of the curve and suddenly the question is "what do I do know with this Flaming sword... does it magically turn into a Frost sword because that parcel fits better?" My suggestion for those who are quite a bit behind the expected wealth curve for their PC's would be to PM your DM for the game you're in and discuss it with him/her. Maybe I'm a Monty Haul DM, but I've always addressed any shortcomings in wealth for a PC in my adventure (Mal's Hadrak comes to mind) at the first opportunity. The judges will have to check at level up time to make sure everyone did their parcels correctly. I can tell you in LEB that there have been more than a couple times where the wrong parcel level was selected. How I find it constraining? Well, if PC only has slot level 4 left, but there's a really perfect item that would fit their character at lvel 5 that I'd love to give them as a reward, but I can't because theri parcel doesn't match up. I do like the parcel system in theory, but I'm less enamored with it in practice (no offense stonegod, please don't kill Vok). [/QUOTE]
