Our dm prefers the 4d6, ignore one, select stats. And I liked it, it allows for a medium to good numbers.
But if I wanted to have a certain set of abilities in pnp, I would have it. Or wouldn't play at all [img]smile.gif[/img] . The rules are not there for fun. They are there for our convenience and to keep things balanced (as far as it is possible). If house rules prove more fun, then we will play by house rules even if it sends balance down the toilet.
Eh, you've rolled 99? With 18/97!? Quite nice! Please don't tell me how long it took...
