[QUOTE="Glyfair, post: 3592345, member: 53"] That would be nice, but not realistic. We can start with the simple fact that income directly affects what you can get. It is fair that I can't afford to get Ptolus because I can't afford it? Is it fair that my FLGS didn't have it on sale like one a friend of mine visited at a price that I could afford? Still, IMO, not having a FLGS around in many cases is a fault of the local gaming community these days. In a number of areas they had one but choose not to support it. What I find interesting looking at the list of sites is the number of locations in each state. Here in Delaware (population about 850,000) we have 2 sites, Alaska has 3 sites (population about 650,000), yet Maryland (population about 5,500,000) only has 3 sites and Connecticut (population about 3,500,000) has only 1 site. True, this information might have other issues. Still, I wonder if there was a way to find out which states have the best coverage of game stores base on population. One possibility is that the choice between those who wanted d20 adventures was between buying [I]Dungeon[/I] magazine for $7.00 (or less) for 3 adventures or a unknown d20 company for $2. If I don't need more than 3 adventures, why bother? Now that [I]Dungeon[/I] is disappearing there is an opening for print d20 adventures (especially companies giving regular support to the category). Right now is probably the best time to get your adventures out there in the hands of ex-subscribers. It's a shame that Green Ronin didn't make it in time with their "Bleeding Edge" adventure.
