    "Quality Standards" in the d20 System Guide

    Mr. Peterson, I do have one question for you: Given that there is no time limit (as you point out in your document), in your opinion, if I were to get WotCs approval for d20 Book X, and they were to tell me that the book was acceptable in regards to the decency clauses... ...can they then (for...

    Avalanche Press stops using d20 license

    Sorry... did not see you posting there. ;) Hope you do not mind me quoting you from the MONGOOSE BOARDS. Just let me know and I will remove the quote, if so desired.

    Avalanche Press stops using d20 license

    Yes we have. From the MONGOOSE PUBLISHING messageboards: So there you have it. And this seems to be a rather reasonable response, if you ask me. Not one I agree with 100%, but reasonable, none-the-less.

    Nebular Cross in possible breach of new d20 stl 5.0

    it is NOT d20; I think the original poster meant "theoretical" d20 FATAL (meaning that it is still conceivable for them to do a d20 FATAL book).

    Avalanche Press stops using d20 license

    It is strange... but just yesterday, I was telling my friends how I felt that Avalanche would most likely announce this very thing very soon... (I figure it has to do with their reputation for having a lot of 'cheese-cake' art in their books). Good to see, actually.

    "Quality Standards" in the d20 System Guide

    Just because you believe that WotC has everyones best interest in heart does not make the actual wording of this any easier to read without getting a big headache. This is akin to saying (albiet, this is an extreme example of what I am trying to say, in order to make my point): Suppose the "war...

    "Quality Standards" in the d20 System Guide

    OK. Wizards has a new gun and it is aimed at Valar's BoEF. Who will it be aimed at next? Unlikely? Care to invest some $10,000 in geting your new hard-cover book to market, knowing that it is unlikely that Wizards of the Coast will tell you to yank them all, at your expense, and eat the original...

    "Quality Standards" in the d20 System Guide

    As has been pointed out in this thread, even if I trusted the current incarnation of the management of the WotC division, and even if I trusted the management of Hasbro -- that would still be the management today. This is a pandora's box, once open -- it is going to remain open. Because even if...

    "Quality Standards" in the d20 System Guide

    They can protect their trademark... but like Ryan Dancy stated -- they just opened a whole can of worms with this move. They had other options that would have been just as protective of the trademark without creating a quagmire of legal responcibility. And provided real proof of the company's...

    "Quality Standards" in the d20 System Guide

    I disagree. Don't get me wrong, I agree with you that this will rankle everyone; and to a degree, I agree with you that there will come a day that this is not discussed any longer. But I feel that it will not be discussed any longer because I feel that a group of d20 System Publishers will...

    Moms who banned DnD

    Yes... my mother attempted unsuccessfully several times to get me away from that "spawn of satan game." I thought for sure I wa sin for it when she saw the movie MAZES AND MONSTERS. But... she was drunk so much of the time that most of her rules were fairly easy to bypass...

    Are there too many settings out there?

    There are many more. And to answer your question (Are there too many settings out there?) -- No. ;)

    Thoughts about the new Message Boards

    Greetings: First, I like the new boards. Second, do what you need to do Russ, I have no worries when it comes to this site -- I cannot believe you would ever let anything happen to it. Take care of yourself. I do have some thoughts about the new boards, however. Specifically, for the Message...

    Ageism in gaming

    Sorry for the late quoting of the original post, but I just caught this thread so... I have seen some ageism, but it has not truly affected me, as I managed to find a group that really did not care -- took a while, but I found it. The last big campaign I ran had 11 players and me as the DM. The...

    HULK SMASH in M&M

    I do not have the book in front of me, but I believe the cost for attributes is a plus and minus thing -- HULK, with an INT score of 3 would grant you 7 points (ie: have a cost of -7 points).
