Thanks to Piratecat, I can post again!
Well, I am a lawful good dwarven sorceror.
My abilities score were:
Str 13
Dex 10
Con 10
Int: 14
Wis: 13
Cha: 13
Initially, I had Str 12, Int 13 and Wis 12. However, I soon realized that I had forgotten to put a couple of answers in lowercase. Theoretically, I shouldn't get the points back on my wisdom score...
Then, I went to find out how good I actually was at the push-up and sit-up tests and found that I am a little better than I thought, and this got me another point of strength.
So, that brought me up to standard 25-point buy! I'm not that min/maxed, however. If you apply my racial modifiers to these attributes, I'm a rather lousy sorceror.
After having looked at "view source," I'm not sure that the strength test makes that much sense (minor spoiler). I qualify for a 17 or an 18 in both of the first two tests (the second one is harder to measure, but I think I do). Doing push-ups fast is much easier for me than doing push-ups slowly. Of course, it is also possible that I have bad form when "racing" and that makes the push-ups easier. The same could be true of sit-ups, but I really don't think that those two tests are that hard (40 push-ups in a minute and 75 seconds of 1 sit-up/second.
Bench press, on the other hand... I haven't tried it recently, but I would get a 7 or a 9 on it. Maybe that is the point of having multiple individual tests combine to give you a strength score, but 18(17)/18(17)/7(9) seems pretty odd. I don't think I deserve an 18 or a 7. Did anyone else have a similar result?
