Bet you wish your workplace looked like WotC?

This is one of three articles covering this announcement. The other two articles are WotC Seeks Unity with a New Edition and Off to See the Wizards: The Day WotC Showed Me 5th Edition.

These are a few of the photographs taken while at WotC's headquarters last year. No, no top-secret documents (we could show you, but then we'd have to kill you); but a load of very cool things to be surrounded by while you work!

I keep changing my script permissions and I keep getting a short post with no pictures, just lots of blackness. Are these linked somewhere?

Was the title of this thread supposed to be readable to the tune of Don't Cha?

Assuming you pronounce WotC as Wot-See (which most people I know do), "Bet you wish your workplace looked like WotC?" syncs up perfectly with "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?"

But yes, I do wish my workplace looked like that. My workplace is a rather cramped kitchen.

  Dammit. Now it's in my head.

Really interesting pictures.

My "digs" at the Agency ... nothing like that. Rather, my workplace is a soulless plain where the damned wail in the distance ...

Oh, sorry. That's Purgatory or maybe Hades. My workplace is just your normal, Dilbert-esque "zone of zero fun."

Thanks. It is an amazing place and I was very grateful for the opportunity not only to travel there but to also be a part of the announcement of the new edition and have the chance to playtest it some. I really believe that it is because I have tried to approach my blogging and articles in a positive way. Not to be too hippy.

There are alot of people out of work right now...just buy some armor and pay some guy to wear it and stand still while you and your friends play.

Not if you haven't given me any for it in the first place there isn't.

And somebody's gotta make a horrible pun or groan-inducing comment once in a while y'know.

Bet Gaming Tonic wishes that picture was in focus.



I went to the Wizards of the Coast and all I got was a blurry picture.

Did you at least get some freebies?

Actually, it's Dakkon Blackblade. He collects dust like there's no tomorrow when he's sitting in the front window of a mall store. They sold off the one at the Mall of America, a guy in Minneapolis bought it and it can be seen in Fear of Girls 2.
