We got an official leak of One D&D OGL 1.1! Watch Our Discussion And Reactions!

Their distributors.

And before this goes into "and where do they get their products from?", this line of inquiry ends with the idea that anyone who owns something that they sell commercially has a monopoly over it, which is quite clearly not in sync with the legal definition of that term.

no, that works quite well, but generally the market is not defined as that one product, and that is why we do not have millions of tiny monopolies

I was making the point that legal issues (those things that you were opining on and being snarky to other people about) are complex; that you don’t know what Black’s is … is a tell … and indicates that you don’t have the requisite background to be so dismissive of others.

I don't think you read my exchanges with Alzrius very closely.

Obvious things are obvious. You don’t have to be Benoit Blanc to know when someone doesn’t know what they’re talking about.

Agreed.

There is a point where you stop giving in to the terrorists' demands, you know?

Really? Terrorists? Is that the comparison you want to make to the guys in the video, people that have worked with the Level Up crew before?

 

[Snarf Zagyg]

Agreed.

Heh. You genuinely don’t know, do you? Well, that does make it funny!

 

[overgeeked]

That's a fair point, and in that regard WotC quite clearly has neither of those things.

Weird. Because if they pull the trigger and somehow the OGL actually does go away, that’s a lot of game companies that suddenly either disappear or fall in line, and that’s them directly engaging in anti-competitive behavior and exercising a lot of power over the market.

I have exactly zero involvement with Level Up. I don't know these people from Adam, and don't generally use game design credits as reliable character references.

I got my Law degree from Law and Order

I got mine from from Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe

Yeah a lot of these people are using each other as a source.

Griffons Saddle isn't. His was posted 2 days ago. And it looks like someone else stepped into the comments back then too. Confirming some things if not the exact verbiage from the Roll For Combat folks.

Looks like at the time of Griffon's Saddle post the prior two weeks discussions were being held.
