In our group we have a mixture of people who love the randomness of rolled stats and those who love the balance of point buy or a fixed array.Altalazar said:
In the end we combined the two. One of the players who loves rolling dice generates a set of 6 stats. Then those 6 stats get used as a fixed array for every player.
Of course this does mean that poor dice rolls mean a weak party and good dice rolls a strong party. But that's OK for a DM to compensate for (e.g. add or subtract a couple of orcs per encounter).

Also like combining the stability of point buy with the randomness of dice rolling.
For now I have settled with the following method:
Create an ability array with 28 PB, then roll 6d6 and increase Strength by one for every 1 rolled, Dexterity by one for every 2 rolled, Constitution by one for every 3 rolled, and so on. If an ability would be raised above 18, it stays at 18. If you happen to have multiple such increases, which raise one or more ability scores above 18 you can distribute half of those points (rounded down) to any other ability score(s) of your choice (raising none higher than 18, of course).

Okay, well since Finley picks first in this round anyway. .. I will post the stats now.
Below are six stats for each ability, PLUS six "wild numbers" which can be chosen to to be put anywhere.
Remember, whoever picks the highest in this round goes last next round and so on in order. Ties are broken by total stat choices so far, and if it is still a tie, then just opposite order from the round before. Ok?
Okay.
Here are the stats:
As choices are made I will go back and remove the chosen number and make note of it
