[QUOTE="Kaodi, post: 7456253, member: 1231"] I am somewhat shocked that this thread has been resurrected. It was mere chance that I even noticed. I no longer have the itch from then to run a game, but I suppose I could at least give it some renewed thought. In the intervening time though two things have changed from my original post: one, I think I would start the game at level 4 now. This might make it both easier and harder for me to DM, given my inexperience, but one of the things I got out of the "Lessons For PbP" thread was that starting at the lowest levels is kind of a drag. Second, I would change my weird stat generation system a bit: instead of being 25 pt Roll it would now be 20 pt Roll [I]BUT[/I] you also get PF2s extra floating +2 to an ability score that you do not already get a racial bonus to. Though now that I mention PF2, maybe it would be better to wait for the Playtest anyway and see how that works out. When I first posted this thread that was closer to five months away. Now it is just one. In any case, of the two of you I am afraid I would only be able to take mips42 as a prospective player. Whether games work out is a bit of a diceroll to begin with, and in my experience players with no history on the boards are the most obvious risk to a game falling apart. [/QUOTE]
