Well, i really really like this one mud (play it all the time). But it is very hard to get good stats when rolling (making new chars). I looked all over this forum for the stats rollers, and could not addapt one to mine.
The mud im trying to roll looks something like this :

Your abilities are:
Str Fair
Int Good
Wis Fair
Dex Average
Con Fair
Cha Fair

Do you want to retain these abilities? [y/N]

I want the first 5 (all except charisma) to be excellent. The mud address is anotherworld.org, and port is 4000.
Was wondering if someone can addapt or write me a roller.
Also the mud does force the last stats on me after 15 min or so. In which case i disconnect/reconnect, chose my gender/race/class and on i go rolling. The muds stast are terrible, poor, average, fair, good, and excellent.
Can anyone help me please?? Based on what i have seen around it should not be that complicated :P.
Oh, if anyone could describe me how should the mush behaive after i chose 'add' once the plugin is selected it would be great, i dont really know what to expect. (originally i was hoping for the stats to keep rolling).

Here is one post on rollers:

And another:

Search this forum for "stat roller", you should find a few examples.


However as I warned in another post somewhere, if you want "excellent" on almost everything, you may be waiting a *long* time.

Say each characteristic can be poor, fair, average, good, excellent (1 out of 5).

Then you only have a 1 in 5 chance of each one being excellent, and you have six abilities, of which you want 5 to be excellent. Thus you will need:

5 * 5 * 5 * 5 * 5 rolls to randomly get 5 excellents.

That's 3,125 rolls, at say one every 10 seconds, is 31,250 seconds, which is 521 minutes, or 8.7 hours.

Now maybe you will get away with being on the MUD for that long rolling your stats, but maybe not. :)
