A Non-Numerical Approach To D&D Attributes

Well, there may not be much new Lands of Ara content from me this weekend, for although I am very close to having "Deities of Ara" ready to go, I keep getting distracted by various (real-world) housekeeping tasks (I changed the cats' litter boxes today) as well as some inspirational reading of other old-schoolers' blogs and websites.  Along this line, I caught wind (via P_Armstrong at Ode to Black Dougal) of a really provocative and smart proposal at Robertson Games' site about approaching attribute "scores" in a more qualitative, comparative way rather than a roll-dice-for-numerically-quantitative-scores kind of way.  It is worth checking out and something I will be pondering for possible future use in my own campaigns. . .
