Random Attribute Generation for Fudge

Sometimes it is more fun to let chance dictate the attributes of a player character or non-player character rather than settling for default trait levels. Fudge has its own official suggestions for Random Character Creation with attributes generated via 2d6. Having started the hobby with the Dungeons & Dragons Basic Set and Expert Set c. 1981, however, I have a preference for the values generated via 3d6. This would yield the following results:

3d6Fudge
18Superb
16-17Great
13-15Good
9-12Fair
6-8Mediocre
4-5Poor
3Terrible

This is fine for standard Fudge, but if mediocrity is the baseline, I think the following might be more useful:

3d6Fudge
18Superb
16-17Great
13-15Good
11-12Fair
6-10Mediocre
4-5Poor
3Terrible
