    Welcome to the Halmae (updated 2/27/07)

    A bump for my convinience. More to follow.

    Interview with Scott Rouse, Chris Perkins & Bill Slavicsek

    But it is very predictable. Unfortunately PR is mostly repetitive. Which is why it bombs sometimes. It's hard to really care when you're in PR. If you're lucky, you work on a client or two that you like, but even then consumer PR is pretty numbing stuff. I've worked for several agencies...

    Interview with Scott Rouse, Chris Perkins & Bill Slavicsek

    I hope we all underdstand this: it's not your fault *personally* that you're stuck inside a model that isn't working. I can imagine how much it might suck to have job A that you really love and consumer base B that really loves A, and yet you can't connect the two. But of course, secrecy...

    Interview with Scott Rouse, Chris Perkins & Bill Slavicsek

    Thanks for handling this, Morris! I have to say, I was surprised and a little dissapointed with the general flatness of the interview and lack of information. You really don't have things worked out yet, which explains the silence, heh. Which brings me to my next point: Yikes. I think you...

    When should we expect answers?

    Yes, it would have. Unless there are other Very Important Things on the calendar that you are not willing to push back, which means the only fix is to make it all develop faster and in your haste you have nothing finalized in time for the announcement, etc. The ball rolls. It's a screw-up...

    It's your mother's head!

    When should we expect answers?

    Because the DI isn't ready yet, and probably wasn't very far along (if at all) this time last year. The timing of the license renewal and the "Big New Idea" aren't in sync. Strategy and tactics aren't on speaking terms at the moment.

    When should we expect answers?

    Yes, this is certainly true in your case, but being unable to soothe you doesn't mean that ignoring the issue completely was the right move, or even a "nice try." I'd say they dropped the ball, but I don't think they saw the ball at all. I think the ball smacked them in the grill and now...

    When should we expect answers?

    That's exactly the opposite of my reaction. :) For me, the most interesting part of it all is figuring out whether their silence is just a botch of the situation, or indicative of an iceberg beneath the metaphoric waters. I can't believe that given the heart-felt reminiscing they put on their...

    My Opinion of WOTC's Digital Initative and the current events

    Whu . . . it . . . it doesn't? (cries) (gets high) (plays Halo)

    Or you can disallow 2/3rds of the non-core books. ;)

    My Opinion of WOTC's Digital Initative and the current events

    Gotta disagree with you there, maddman75. MMORPGs are ALL work. WoW was dearly loved by several of my gaming buddies, but it bored the crap out of me. I love H&S and kick in the door gaming, but taking 5 minutes to run back to where the last bad guy kicked your ass (if you can find it again)...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder v Digital Initiative

    At the moment, I know that I've really liked what Paizo has done in the past, particularly the Adventure Paths, so I'm already in on Pathfinder. On the other hand, I've thought Wizards' website has been fairly uninspiring, and several of their earlier "digital initiatives" flat-out sucked. I...

    What do you want to ask WotC?

    Thanks for taking this on, Morris.

    WotC Replies: Statements by WotC employees regarding Dragon/Dungeon going online

    Taking Dragon and Dungeon online might turn out to be a great idea once all the smoke clears, but WotC really blew the announcement. "Hey, we're canceling 2 magazines and are going to publish more content online (presumably next to the existing underwhelming content). Aaaaand, that's all...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    An old Furyondian woman scuttles forward, a basket half-stuffed with wormy, pale apples hung over her right forearm, just above the commoner's Ward Against the Vengeful Dead clutched in her bony grasp. "Apples? Fine, fair apples, a copper a fruit, a dozen a silver." She leans forward against...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    Shhh . . . if they see me using a computer, they're going to give me a faith-based intervention. ;) I love Kansas. Lawrence is a great place to be-- kind of a mini San-Francisco in attitude and vibe (although not in weather). It's hot. Damn hot, real hot. And cheap. Damn cheap, real...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    I moved to Lawrence, Kansas! Pris and Heydricus bailed on the Bay, and as it happened, I recieved an Offer I Couldn't Refuse shortly thereafter to do the same. You make Tritherion cry when you talk like that.

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    So, no more than five minutes ago, I found the LoT notes that I'd thought I'd lost in my recent cross-country move, so this story could in theory be updated . . . Joshua Randall tells me that updating this SH will have a profound positive psychological impact. The girlfriend also wants me to...
