Looking through my old white box rules for the first time in ages, I came across on page 10 of Men & Magic the comments that "Clerics can use strength on a 3 for basis in their prim requisite area (wisdom), for purposes of gaining experience only." Likewise, ther is a comment under Intelligence that "Both fighters and Clerics can use it in their prime requisite areas... on a 2 for 1 basis." Similar comments are made about wisdom.
Does that mean that a character can:
1. Trade ability scores (which doesn't quite match), reducing the scores to increase the prime requisite or...
2. Count the fraction of the secondary ability to increase the character's prime requisite in terms of determining either bonuses or experience bonuses or....
3. Something else I just don't get?
What the heck was Gary trying to say?
