Two things come to mind that I would check:
 1. When new players join, is roll_real_blah ever called for the initial 
roll?

 2. I know there's a piece of code that goes something like:
	if player is the first one
	   set stats to 18
	   etc

	It's for the first time you start the mud, but maybe the code is 
corrupted and automatically assumes each player is the first?
