How many times has someone in your group forgotten whether they even rolled a hit die for their last level? Or done their math wrong, and lost track of how many hit points they should have?If you play with a large number of people, you'll see this kind of crap fairly often - almost as often as people forgetting to add XP at the end of an evening and then trying to figure out how much they should have.Keeping a list of each hit die in order makes sense, and it is implied by the rules. You should do it, and the rules support it.As for generic monsters - they actually get "generic" results for each hit die. They don't have an aggregate of various hit points - they actually "roll" 4.5 hit points per die. So it's not a problem.-Frank</blockquote>
