Hmmm. A month, maybe? I don't remember exactly when, but it was a few weeks ago.

Would love to see a separate chart that includes both the Paizo forum and this forum.
The system only shows 3. I'd have to lose one of the existing ones.

Is there any purpose anymore to excluding them from the main D&D list? I mean I understood it when there was a WOTC board, but now that it's gone, doesn't it make sense to just include it all now?
A forum is either counted or not. It can't be counted in just one list.

Right, but why not just count it all now? What purpose does it serve to exclude EnWorld and the Paizo board from lists? The non-D&D list would actually be slightly more representative that way as well (since some discussion of non-D&D games takes place at both EnWorld and Paizo's boards), wouldn't it? It's not like the non-D&D list would be skewed because people are talking a lot of Pathfinder (at Paizo) or 5e (here), as both as still not counted in the non-D&D list anyway.
Because a lot of official forums don't have RSS feeds and including some but not others would distort the data. Sticking to just independent sources is more representative than using some but not all official sources.

OH I see...so this is more about things like Exalted or World of Darkness or Savage Worlds not having RSS feeds, than it is about Paizo and WOTC? (and I have no idea if any of those have RSS feeds I was just throwing three names out from the indie list).

Not every store is that uptight about it. I am aware of one store that will give you the password just for purchasing product in store. Not even participation in D&D AL nor a D&D product purchase - just show up, spend money, and ask.
Plus, to date, EVERY season's password has been leaked to the web within 2 weeks of the season starting.
One just has to actually go looking for it.
