He confirmed this on Facebook, so let's welcome Mike Mearls as the new man in charge of D&D R&D.

Congrats, Mike! Fthang!

Great news--I like what he's done for the game--although I can't say I'm surprised. He's been a rising star in the company for a while.

Among those seven listed as laid-off this week in Bad Week… « NeoGrognard , Andy Collins was listed as "Manager of D&D editing and development", so I guess it's his position.

Go Mike!

Note that, in 4 years or less, we will be wishing Mike well again, in a round of seemingly-random WotC layoffs.

You got the news in Brazil before we got it in the states?

That's crazy! The books are always in Europe and Asia before they're available here, too. :rant:
