    I, for one, am sick of their duck erasure. Thaumaturge.

    D&D General A Venn Diagram Poll About D&D

    I went with B, because that reflects my main group. But I just got finished running a Ravenloft session with a couple of new players, and my life feels like E. Thaumaturge.

    TSR TSR3 Blames Widespread Pushback On WotC

    That’s me! I spent a lot of time here in the run up to, and just after, the 5e launch. Then we had a third kid, and life got very full for awhile. He’s going into first grade now, so I guess it’s been more than awhile. Oh goodness. There’s nothing like an edition change to get the heart...

    TSR TSR3 Blames Widespread Pushback On WotC

    Here’s an article that talks about a study about gender diversity and autism. Thaumaturge.

    TSR TSR3 Blames Widespread Pushback On WotC

    Yikes. If Ernie is on the autism spectrum, that’s really tough, but he still needs to make the effort to understand how what he said was wrong. It probably feels unfair, but that doesn’t change anything. If he’s not on the spectrum and this is just an opportunity to hide behind a label, that’s...

    TSR TSR3 Blames Widespread Pushback On WotC

    I know all of that and it still took me a moment. In part because my realization is fairly new. In part because I’m finding myself less accepted or included in some of the spaces that I used to be in. When I’ve gone to big conventions, the inclusivity is on full display. In East Texas, the...

    TSR TSR3 Blames Widespread Pushback On WotC

    It has been a few years since I’ve posted here, and I don’t expect anyone to remember me. But Ernie’s comments really shook me, in part because I was excited and hopeful about the TSR thing, and in part because I’ve recently realized I’m non-binary. His comments caused me to question, just for a...

    D&D 3.x 5E's Initial Raw Sales Numbers Stronger Than 3E's!

    :blush: It's a little detail I like throwing in when it fits. I'm glad someone notices appreciates them. Thanks. :) —— The PH(B) still #1 in "Hot New Releases" as of this post. And #3 in Amazon's overall "Best Sellers in Books" category. It has some legs. Mearls mentioned on twitter: "Kind...

    D&D 3.x 5E's Initial Raw Sales Numbers Stronger Than 3E's!

    I've actually cancelled my two orders. Because my LGS was F enough to have a midnight release. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 3.x 5E's Initial Raw Sales Numbers Stronger Than 3E's!

    Mearls has already confirmed "the spells work". So I'm getting to memorizing a few of them. He also warned us to be careful when the Monster Manual is released. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 3.x 5E's Initial Raw Sales Numbers Stronger Than 3E's!

    This exchange seems pertinent as well. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 3.x 5E's Initial Raw Sales Numbers Stronger Than 3E's!

    I appreciate that Mearls is putting it in a larger perspective instead of shouting the launch window numbers and acting like that was the complete picture. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 3.x 5E's Initial Raw Sales Numbers Stronger Than 3E's!

    I'm sure you've thought of it, but I would guess the average product generates more reviews, overall, now than in 2000. Despite that caveat, that's an impressive number of 5 star reviews and an interesting comparison. It appears to be, which gives us another, quite positive seeming, data...

    D&D 3.x 5E's Initial Raw Sales Numbers Stronger Than 3E's!

    Oh no doubt. I just figured someone would raise the point sooner or later, so I got the ball rolling. I still think there's probably some acceleration from 2008 to 2014, but my guess is it's less. Still, 5e is doing quite well out of the gates. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2014) PHB is #3 right now on "Amazon's Hot New Releases"
