snipping a lot from MC23 and TopCat (sorry if I got spellings wrong).

first;
Let us review what MC23 means by a geometric system. I'd be willing to
bet a lot of the more mathematically reclined people out there are not
quite sure what you mean.
do you mean a geometric "progression" (not the right word I know)
i.e. 1,2,5,10 like a geometric series? or something else?

second;
I must agree with TC about the linking of resources and force points.
I'm currently playing a street shaman, who started out actually living on
the street. To get enough force points to make the atreet rat survive I
had to take a whole lot of cash. Now I ended up spending it on on
buddies,followers, and enough contacts for two people. I like the idea
of spliting up the two.

third;
How many of us have actually bothered to generate characters using the
new system. How many of us use Paolo's SRCG program (or something
similar) to whip up new characters on the fly.

note: this is not a slam on Paolo, his SRCG is great (I really like the
version).

just my opinions, feel free to ignore them as you will
