It would seem to be - if all you do is skim it. If, instead, you actually read through it, you will notice that it is solely concerned with things during gameplay - the bonuses or penalties the different statistics yield, how an action is rolled, how multipliers work, how fractional results work, descriptions of the stats, and the like; it does not cover deciding on the stats of the character to begin with, nor starting capital for purchasing basic equipment, or any other pre-game stuff. It's possible that it is a deliberate omission on the part of Wizards of the Coast, either as a marketing ploy or as a method of not limiting the game master.
Narf: Yeah, that's pretty much what I meant. Also pretty much what I was looking for, although the starting cash portion still needs to be addressed.

Huh. Tricky bastards. The attached word document is the section that preceeds chapter 1 in the PHB (and no I didn't type this up...).
There is a table for starting money in the Equipment chapter. Was this ommitted as well? Just for completeness...
TABLE 7�1: RANDOM STARTING GOLD
Class Amount (gp)
Barbarian 4d4 x 10
Bard 4d4 x 10
Cleric 5d4 x 10
Druid 2d4 x 10
Fighter 6d4 x 10
Monk 5d4
Paladin 6d4 x 10
Ranger 6d4 x 10
Rogue 5d4 x 10
Sorcerer 3d4 x 10
Wizard 3d4 x 10
By the way, this is a much nicer SRD site, as it has everything in HTML rather than files to download (handy for web browsing anyways): http://srd.pbemnexus.com/home.html

Fyron:
Yep, that was also omitted.
Well, I've got a character rolled up with the 4d6 drop lowest method; a Neutral-Good Half-Elf bard (will be able to cast Cure Light Wounds after a level or two)

Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.(Edit
Ok, we have three players and I presume Jack's looked at the times listed and can make it. So:
No free levels, would make three characters to powerfull. Please pick one from collumn A and one from column B or one from column Z.
Z1) Go in with 3
Z2) Give everyone another character and re-work the map.
A2) Run a character myself
A3) Give one player another character
B2) Wait some more
B3) Wait a lot more

Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.(Edit
Looking at the times others have listed (all times PST):
Narf: M-Sa 8A - 9P
Alneyan: F,Sa 11a - 1p
eorg: All day Sat/Sun, or 7a - 10a weekdays
The common overlap is Saturday, 11am - 1 pm, which I can usually make.
As for your list, I like A2 and Z1 (go in with 3 and Run a character yourself [although that would technically make it four....])

Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.(Edit
My vote is the same as Jack's; you pick one character, and the four of us go in.
I am thinking of going with a Sorcerer myself, and possibly a Sorcerer/Cleric later on. Or perhaps a mundane Wizard over the Sorcerer. I am still left quite undecided about my race though. Hmm.
On another matter, when do you make the switch off Daylight Savings Time Narf? I seem to recall that France switches to DST one week earlier than Canada, but I do not know if the same goes true when going back to "normal" time.

Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.(Edit
I actually have no clue about when daylight savings time switches.
As for character, I'll just fill whatever slot is left over.
If anyone's hoping for a session tommorrow, well, I stayed up late today.

Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.(Edit
One other thing - where can I find the experience/leveling tables?

Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.(Edit
Experience has been extremly simplified:
Level | XP total
1 | 0
2 | 1000
3 | 3000
4 | 6000
5 | 10000
The pattern simply continues to infinity, the same table is used for all classes. So no more AD&D weird XP class tables.

Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.(Edit
Simple enough.
I was wrong; in browsing through the Online docs, I noticed a few other things that don't seem to be detailed in the docs, but are mentioned as existing: - Base stats growing with level up
- Feat gains with level up
- Experience cost for multiclass characters (e.g., does a Cleric 5 / fighter 5 character cost the experience for (level 5) + (level 5), level (5 + 5), or something else?)

Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.(Edit
I seem to recall you gain one point in any statistic every four levels, and a feat every three levels (one at character creation level, then for Level 3rd, level 6th and so on), with bonus feats for humans and some classes.
I believe only your global character level matters when levelling with multiclass characters, and not the sum of the levels in these classes. But once again, it has been a long while since I came anywhere near D&D rules.
