[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 8891468, member: 7006"] The thought came to me this morning as I was eating breakfast about what the next playtest packet for OneD&D could possibly be about and when it might get released... when it occurred to me that the D&D design team HAS to know that it would be crazy to actually release anything right now for people to test. Mainly because of the 40,000+(?) people who have been stated to be filling out the surveys on the packets... I have to imagine that a large number of those people are people who are online and follows the comings and goings of Wizards of the Coast. So a lot of those people are fully aware of the current 1.1 situation and have a lot to say about it-- moreso than anything they might have to say about any potential "Priest Classes". Have we perhaps see the end of the playtest... because it is now possibly virtually impossible for Jeremy et. al. to get anything worthwhile out of the surveys because they could very well be overrun by torrents of comments only about how 1.1 is screwing designers and players over? Do any of them actually WANT to try and engage with the community on creative endeavors right now when their higher-ups have poisoned the well so thoroughly? Heh... I mean not to make light of things too much... but we've had a number of posters here in the past claim that OneD&D has "already been written" and that the playtest was just "marketing". Well, at this point if it WASN'T already written, they might as well go ahead and DO IT NOW because any "marketing" from the playtest has crapped the bed. So just to have a question for folks to respond to in this thread... if for the sake of argument the design team DID release their next playtest packet soon... would you be able to test and comment on just the merits of the info in the packet when the survey came out, or would you use the survey instead to let your feelings of the OGL 1.1 be known and "Priest Classes" be damned?
