You learned the rules, or made the rules, by playing not by reading the rulebook cover to cover.  It is that DIY attitude that I treasured and continue to use when I play RPGs.  IMO, from a certain point of view, all game rules "suck" until you make them work for you.That is a matter of opinion. Why not have levels 1-10 be "novice?"I disagree. Also, as I don't have to worry about selling this thing - so I don't care! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />Or adds the low levels everyone else loves?  I mean the whole argument is one of opinion. Why can't the novice levels be 1-5?  Personally I think the idea of 0 levels and particularly negative levels are just silly. Start at l (or 0) and move everything up from there. Then you should have robust guidelines desrcribing how to start at any level you want.You want 0-hero: start at level 1You want hero-legend: start at level 5You super hero: start at level 10.That seems a lot more straightforward than sub-level 1 novice levels and incremental advancement rules.</blockquote>
