When you Roll your Stats, do you insist upon Straight Down the Line; or Arrange?

Just curious what the membership prefers.

4D6, retain top 3 dice, 6 times arrange to taste.

That's plum generous, within the OSR community.

Dunno if it's old school. That's how we did stats when I played in the 80's, after much gnashing of teeth over stat rolling.
Nowadays, I prefer a stat array.

That's been my method for D&D for ages. The player generally gets to play the class and race they want and the stats usually don't suck, but it preserves some randomness.
