I doubt it would be hard at all to code. Actually, I'm certain an IMM with access to pfiles and working knowledge of sed/awk/grep could bang out answers in about five minutes.

I'd be curious to see it as well. However, I'd also bet that a lot of people would look at the information, and use it to base their next character on. Lots of paladins? Better put that necro on hold. Very few magi? Here comes a villager. Etc. Lots of duergar warriors sitting in the high 20's? Hmm... human conjurer, anyone? Etc.

Maybe I'm a cynic. =)

Personally I'd try what nobody else is doing. Best way to make a name for yourself if you manage to do it right. n/t Astillian 13:31:51 9/28/2000 (0)
