[@Monster] Being newer gives it more weight. The game is for newer people. Opinion noted~ (if anyone else that's new responds, and everyone new is for it, I'll go with milestone instead. When I do it, it's still based on experience gain, just on my end instead of everyone tracking it).

[@JBRam2002]
1) I planned on starting at level 1 because it's less work for the new people, but I prefer level 3, when everyone gets (or already is, in some cases) less boring, to start. I'll leave that to the group to decide. 
2) I love feats. No limits as long as they're not deliberately OP 3rd party ones or something. Which means the optional human is a thing people can do if they choose.
3) Flanking will be automatic advantage. Logically. ^~^ As for maps or whatnot...really should. <.< It does make it easier to track, especially with this growing group.
Also, if you go with Akashic, they may be SUPER OP. Unsure yet. They need the most playtesting. When I first made the Exemplar, I was just piling on options for them, then evaluated. They could hold 4 greatswords (two created from glyphs, two held with the hand glyphs), two laser things (eldritch glyph), two daggers, and two longswords. That needed to be scaled back lots. I didn't do nearly as much evaluation of the Akashic. But DSP themselves told me it was cool so far, so that's always nice. Only saying this because if you choose it, I may be nerfing it lots during the game. Thought I'd give that warning now. (Personally, my favorite is the Sovereign Initiator. So named because the class I based it on was the Harbinger and I picked another Mass Effect-related name as a placeholder...then kept it. Also, I find playing them to be exciting (did a tiny bit of playtesting with that one. Initiators DO start boring, only having a single niche (at level 1, anyway) use of the akasha they gain)).

[@Ms Ravenwinter] Sure. ^~^ It's not TOO many people yet.

[@The Harbinger of Ferocity] Very good points. <.< Umm...yeah, I think regular experience tracking is better for now, then, with everyone tracking their own. Also, HATED hexblade when I first saw it for some reason. Then when I was doing the survey about it, realized it's not bad AT ALL. Personally prefer Raven Queen when I consider the fact that warlocks may be casters, but only really need one cantrip.
Also, I don't have that issue with it. What sucks is the second half has the class I made instead of just converting. >< Hopefully using another browser fixes it. Then again, like I said, I don't really expect anyone to use them. I was just putting them there and hoping I'd be lucky. ^//^
