I would just like to disagree in part...I would say that, as bad as the
GSL is, it can only be bad or NEUTRAL. It is unlikely, but completely possible, that this announcement is meant to calm the masses, but that the actual changes are not enough.
My biggest worry is that they will have HUGE positive changes, but will keep the 'oh, and we can change the rules at any time and you must obey' clause...if that happens, all the positive changes are meaningless, and it appears even more like a trap for the foolish.
As far as the sales data, or success/failure of
4e...I don't know that I'll dispute the NYT list, but Amazon ranks are notoriously goofy on some product lines, and sales data from
WOTC is likely unreliable.
I say that because more often than not big company sales figures are sell TO, and not sell THROUGH...they might not do it this way, but often the numbers quoted are sold INTO the channels...so if they sell 4M to stores, that is their sales figure, even if 3.9M are just sitting on shelves.
And yet another word from our sponsors
