Hey, this is amazing! Thank you so much for posting this, my brother and I were thinking of coming up with a system like this as well, but the details are a lot to wrap your head around! This means less time for thinking, more time for grinding!
I have a couple questions though. Why did you choose both INT and WIS for a self-based stat system? Also, I seem to be having trouble having the levels display. I get errors instead. Any ideas?
I actually figured out what was messing up the levels. For some reason, I guess since I'm in Canada, though the date says mm/dd/yyyy, the actual date stamp is dd/mm/yyyy. Putting in 1/14/2011, for example, causes an error with all the stats because there's no 14th month!
thanks a lot. hoping to see more features in the future. I've been looking for something like this. Too bad our AI isn't so advanced that it can detect our activity and jot down stats automatically w/o us filling in the stats. But I'm hoping to see a fuller commercial version of this--where you can take your avatar that you level up w/ real life skill and be able to use it to play adventure game/slay dragon, etc. instead of lvling by useless, repetive ingame grind
I Just want to tell you that you are a bloody genius. I wanted this same model for life improvement skills for a crew I work with. I looked at every RPG resource from Kongregate to Gamersafe to obtain a model. Glad I found ya.
In case anyone is wondering, the spreadsheet uploads to google docs and works perfectly in their spreadsheet application, for those who prefer to use the cloud
Hey man this is a really awesome and helpful spreadsheet. I'm really looking forward to using it for self-improvement. I was wondering.. is there any way to add a variable for negative stats? Say.. Curse of Smoking -5 CON per week, ect.. ?
@cerealusly you can add an activity called 'curse of smoking' and set it's CON value to -0.71. Then, each day you spend smoking put a 1 on your weekly worksheet. If you smoke 7 days per week you'll end up with a total of -5 CON for your bad habit.
Hey man I really appreciate you making this excel sheet. I was really searching the internet for some way to give self-improvement a quantitative value, and this is just awesome! It's simple to use and I definitely look forward to using it daily. Thanks again man, keep it up.
This spreadsheet is awesome. Me and my friend were wondering if there was a way to add on more stats, because we wanted to sort of add or edit certain attributes on the chart... or is there a simple way of maybe copying/pasting the attribute formula in to add a new attribute.
Incredible. I can only imagine the possibilities of using this not only as a Real Life RPG thing, but as an useful RPG tool. My sessions of Caves and Giant Lizards will never be the same again.

Is there any way to add activity slots?
If not 10 is pretty low. You should add more.
Having trouble fitting everything I want to do on there, and im having to group and generalize a lot of things.

Can I have the password for the sheet?
Also with the date formats on the Weekly Worksheet, it says the date should be supplied in the format: mm/dd/yyyy.
If the user has a different format for their date (like me, dd/mm/yyyy) then the date should actually be supplied in this format.

Check the description now, there is a link to the one without the password.

The sheet seems to be protected, could you supply the password? There are lots of improvements I'd like to add.
