Android on the tablet and ChromeOS on a Chromebook. I went to a Win 7 desktop and it displayed correctly. I guess somebody should check Win 10, too.

Re: Out Of Character

It appears that some platforms have issues rendering the embedded Google Sheets correctly.

This isn't something I can fix, and it is something we can hope the folks at Google will improve as time goes by.
In the meanwhile, it may look a bit awkward on affected platforms but I don't think it's genuinely blocking us from moving forward.

If it does become a real blocker for some folks I'm sure we can find a workaround. If needs be the affected players here could drop back to a pure text character record (perhaps arranged in the Goldenrod layout).

Let's just "go with it" and see what happens.

If anyone finds it unusable on a specific platform, please report the OS and browser combination here. I will try to post a list of platforms that are know to work/not work, and I will look into workarounds for anyone who can't use the Goldenrod sheet :( for whatever reason...

Just tested on Win 10, works fine using Chrome and MS Edge.

All looks good in Win 10 Mozilla...

Re: Out Of Character

It displays fine on WIN 7 in Chrome.

Might just be a problem displaying in a tablet or mobile device?

Nothing to worry about, I think.

No, I have some less-than-stellar dice rolls to worry about instead. ;)

I saw that... But if you go Human (12 instead of 6) and are willing to start poor it turns out pretty solid.

If by solid you mean "exceedingly mediocre", then yeah, that works. Unfortunately, the changing of that rule killed my ability to make a financially poor character with at least one bonus-grade stat.

Running through the options with the demi-race adjustments, I can't get any score over 12 (unfortunately, my two 12s are all even rolls).

I suppose I could go full-on Mondes? If anyone has been prepped for "evil twin", I guess it would be me. Could conceivably push STR and DEX to 15 with a purse of 120sp that way.

Anyone opposed to complete chaos? Logan Nine Fingers as a permanent Bloody Nine?

If I quit worrying about having one or two really good stat scores, I could pull off a pretty good RC, kitted out with 120sp (and CH 6, to boot!) I'd have to work hard to make him non-Desmond like, but I like the idea of testing out the RC class.

Re: Out Of Character

Starting money if you can't wear the heaviest armor is not that important. (Unless Ways is allowing scroll buying at 50sp again). But Rat-Catcher is very interesting can't wait to see it.
