[QUOTE="ryryguy, post: 5098856, member: 64945"] That is true, but the question then is who wants or needs to look at the math section? No, at a minimum that's one judge and one checker who check the sheet. Then you keep saying that GMs need to check it, but I'm not convinced. Is there any GM who has gone on record as needing to see the math, in their role as GM? Ok, that I guess you would lose. I would personally be willing to give that up if the gains were great enough. I think you could still figure out how the character was put together from the Summary section for 90% of builds. The last 10% you might have to puzzle over longer without the math section, but you could still do it. And still, I would trade off the ability for a few people to more easily satisfy idle curiosity about a few builds if we were getting a significant decrease in the amount of time needed to create and check sheets for a great number of players. Yep, I would make that trade. Probably no sense arguing about it more, I think the positions are pretty clear. Hopefully at some point the judges will actually vote. [/QUOTE]
