I like surprises, so in my upcoming attempt at taking the GM reins again, I've opted to go for a ridiculously small CS for an advanced section RP. Though, that's just what I'm going to have people send me and post publicly. I'm also going to give my players the same character-building framework I use when I write a new character and tell them to go work through that on their own time. I have no plans to ever ask for that sheet; its entirely meant for personal reference and doesn't need to be readable to anyone other than the author. Maybe that's a risk since I'm relying on people's word, but in the advanced section I feel that's not too much of a risk. People there are willing to put in the effort even without me wanting verification. As a disclaimer, I would not be trying this if I intended to post this in the casual section for several reasons.
