How do you keep track of your characters?

thirstan · 3rd July 2007, 08:11 AM

Ok,

31 peeps on LS
6 on LA
3 on Sonoma

Memory overload

How would you keep track? I hate the thought of putting all the skills for each character on paper but not sure there is a "legal" way to do it any other way.

Help!?!
I am losing touch with reality.

I don't have excel and can't really afford it but I have OpenOffice, never used it but wonder if that would do it?

That would allow me to track stuff but I would have to keep updating it when I master/change a skill, correct?

Sorry if this is a stupid question. Little slow on this stuff.

definitly not a stupid question and i beleive open office has the abilty to do spreadsheets but if you save the spreadsheet on your computer you can easily make changes as you go keep it open at the bottom of your screen when your online and as you makes changes in uo makes changes on spreadsheet..someone might know a free site for creating spreadsheets im sure tthey could help you as well

Open Office does have a spreadsheet program that would work fine. Or, Google has free online spreadsheets through "Google Docs" -

A text file with a table would work. I use a spreadsheet program on my Palm. It also tracks all skills and armor. (I have serious issues and need therapy)

I write to large to fit all of that in my palm.

Not to mention I have to be careful when I... well, nevermind.

I have a program called, RPGCraftz, I got it from a buddy but it was made to create characters for DnD. However, with a little switching of things I now have all my characters put up on it.

Works like a charm....charm! That's Me!
