Though, again. Parsing programs aren't *technically* outlawed, since the GMs (generally) won't care unless you use the data they give you to harass other players.
Parsers make calculations too. Probably the same ones you have when using Rxcel. Excel isn't different from parsers is the point I'm making here. But using excel over parsers just makes it unnecessary hard and time consuming on whoever decides to use that. By that sense, if you really wanted to, you could harass others using excel. Simply takes longer and more effort.
