Aazenius: 4d6, drop lowest. yes, I let them roll their own stats at home or wherever they choose to do it, but clearly this isn't working for everyone...
RE: point buy. I did bring this up prior to the game starting, but the players do not want to use this method, preffering the chance to get higher stats from random rolls. I don't blame them, but I agree and I won't be allowing stat generation out of my sight unless it is through point buy anymore. Also, they rejected my vote on rather or not to use Eberron's Action Point system (we don't play in Eberron, but i considered adding that mechanic to my game). I could force either of these concepts into my game but I'm trying to be democratic.
haiiro: I will make no excuses for myself, except to say that the pregame on the first night was very hectic and I did not check everyone's sheets as I should have. I had to help two players with their sheets durring the pregame period and it cut into some of my prep time. That roughly two hour period before the game was the first opportunity I had to see everyone's sheets.
Thanks for the stories and advice so far!
