Just a guess, did you add races, and things like positive and
negative modifiers? Are you sure that it's on roll, and not the stacking
ability of spells you may have added (i've had complaints on one mud that
stats were wrapping to the negatives because they had gone so high from
spells). If you changed something by mistake, can't you single step
through the code and see where the problem is?
Try running the code while in a debugger. Try adding logging
messages. Ask the players if they did anything new. Debug the problem,
in short.
