[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 7251748, member: 22779"] That's not the issue. Remember, that while sure one player only rolls one character, you have X number of players at the table, meaning that if I have 6 players (which I do), I get the following (using your site): And what's going to happen, IME, is all those low rolls are going to get rerolled until everyone has above average stats. But, even if they are kept, you wind up with that one guy (guy 5 in this case) who has significantly better stats than everyone else. He's not just a bit better than everyone, he's a LOT better. At everything. Just through pure luck. I mean, Guy 2 is likely just going to either reroll or commit suicide by orc and get a reroll anyway. But, at no point will you have actual parity among the group. Simply shifting points of disparity with Bob being better today and Dave being better tomorrow. To me that's not fun. The fact that you choose to frame this in terms of "maturity" just really smacks of "onetruewayism". As if anyone who doesn't play your preferred way is immature. Now, you may not have meant that, but, that's what it reads like. [/QUOTE]
