[QUOTE="ScorpiusRisk, post: 5101559, member: 41601"] The other difference between a wiki and a text document is the amount you type. With the wiki, when you're filling out you're skill math you only have to put in your dex mod once. With a doc you put it in for each dex skill. You then put in your half a level score for each skill. Still, it sounds like people are willing to do a little more typing for the sake of clarity. Knowing what you're doing could be allot less work than figuring things out. It seems to me the alternative may be google documents. I just thought of this so I apologize for not bringing it up earlier. Google Documents would ensure that everyone was using the same editing program and everyone sees the same end result. It runs on nearly any browser regardless of operating system. It requires a free account to use. Its hosted for free. Documents can be made publicly viewable, publicly editable, or editable by invitation only. Each option keeps an edit history just like a wiki.
