[QUOTE="Lord Sessadore, post: 4864121, member: 57255"] Well, the real problem is that there's a number of existing minotaur characters using the MM writeup, which includes oversized. So, you have a sticky situation which basically comes down to two options: a) nerfing all the old minotaur characters, leaving them little choice in the matter, or b) grandfathering in the old minotaurs' oversized feature, but forcing new minotaurs to use the Dragon version. Both will probably leave a non-trivial number of people unhappy, so it's a tough call to make. As well, there are a number of bugbear PC's with oversized, and whatever decision was made to deal with old minotaurs with oversized would no doubt set precedence for how bugbears are dealt with later. Similarly, this has the potential to leave some people unhappy, no matter what option is chosen. In any case, to get this officially approved, at least three judges need to vote yes, and there needs to be two more yes votes than no votes. When both of those conditions are met for 48 continuous hours, the proposal passes. Now, what needs to happen in order to convince enough judges to vote yes? That's a very good question, and I certainly don't have the answer. Edit: Yeah, I know the feeling, covaithe. And I, at least, don't have any brilliant new ideas to solve all the problems. :( [/QUOTE]
