 Getting ahead of the head count

Urgh.
The whole random plot generator *is* a nice idea. One of the british magazines (Valkyrie issue 1, I *think*) had a cute random Cthulhu generator. And I've spent many a happy minute clicking on the random logline generator at http://www.lifeformz.com/idea/idea.cgi.

So I've no objection to the whole concept - but keeping the Head Count mechanic seems *amazingly* clunky for this. You want a wide range of results, which flipping coins can't generate easily. I'd suggest going back to dice for this bit...or choosing another randomisation mechanic. Maybe flipping to a random page in the book or something...
