D&D 5E (2 separate campaigns) Pathfinder 2E and 2E remastered Shadow Dark Blades in the Dark Fallout 2d20 Some game from Matthew Colville where you played against an endless stream of enemies to see how long you could last.

I agree. People tend to focuse on the income statement, but really should be paying attention to the statement of cash flows.

We coordinate through texting or email. The group is pretty good with responding (seconds to a couple of days). We have a set time and day of the week, and we just indicate whether we're available to play. There are 6 of us in total (1 GM, 5 players), and as long as 4 players are available...

They extracted every last ounce of interest in the series with 11 seasons and a movie. There already was an attempt at a reboot a few years ago. I don't think it lasted more than 2 episodes.

To make the quarter or the year look good.

I worked for a venture capitalist firm for 3 years. Deeply buried in my spreadsheets, I was mostly insulated from the reality of the impact, but on one assignment I was told to meet the boss on-site. I watched as the HR rep handed out pink slips to many of the men on the shop floor. This was a...

It may have been to the people who were laid off.... People are often laid off often due to the poor planning of the Execs who (rarely) have to face any material consequences for their decisions.

Yea, I know why corps do it. But people who say "oh it's just what corps do. "Corps will be corps after all" sound like they are saying it's no big deal if you read between the lines.

Strawman.... I didn't say that. I said shocked at people either defending WoTC or acting like it's no big deal.

I'm not shocked by the layoffs. I'm shocked by the people either defending WoTC, or acting like it's no big deal.

The Ethisphere award. It was Hasbro, not WoTC that purchased it. However, given that WoTC is their most profitable subsidiary, and considering WoTC's bad press over the past year or so, I'd say it was likely a move to benefit WoTC (essentially good will by association)

No tempest. More of an eye roll, but pathetic nonetheless.

Yea, why would anyone have issues with WoTC? cough OGL cough cough Pinkertons cough cough paying for award cough cough Near Xmas layoffs cough*

Yes, that sounds good. But it's easier said than done. What are your ideas?

Lies! ;)

Just because it's nothing personal, or not inherently evil, doesn't make it OK.

Run, don't walk away from WoTC, and support smaller companies. You have to Find the right Path.

Another YouTuber's view: That's true. If he screws up enough he'll leave to spend more time with his family and cry all the way to the bank with his golden parachute.

Regardless of the timing, how the compensation is calculated, or when it's vested, he will likely not be penalized in any material way for his poor decision making...ever. They will just continue the practice of curb stomping the employees.

Tax rates are irrelevant for this discussion. The point is that Executives should take (material) responsibility for their mistakes instead of shifting the consequences off to the workers. But that's not part of the business culture. I once built a staffing analysis for a group using their own...
