A true thread-necromancer.

Too bad, I can actually lick my elbow.

I'm jumping the ship. I'll use something authoral in home until the OSR/NSR communities does something like a "Council of Trent" and decides/makes a truly-free skeleton of a game that it's not retrocompatible but it's compatible between itself, and then I'll probably jump to that.

The one thing people fear is that they'll try to bully small 3PP and enforce it in other ways. Example: Kickstarter made a deal with them, we don't know the content of the deal, but it could be something like "new TTRPG projects MUST be under 1.1". Similar contracts could go with every major...
