Which is WHY I'm so disappointed. At the Announcement at GenCon 07, we were led to believe that the DDI was going to be available by now....including the Virtual Table, character generator and the rest. Now WotC has so little to show they are forced to run such a limited demo. Again...see my...

My point exactly. :) IF they have so few stations available, the functions they are demonstrating CANNOT be even CLOSE to a final...except maybe cosmetically. If WotC COULD have more stations, they WOULD. If they were close at even GETTING to an ALPHA test, they would be able to have at least...

Sure it does. The more stations available increases the chances that something can go wrong. When something goes wrong, bad things get reported. It's a tried and true method when demonstrating not quite ready for release computer tech. Steve Jobs or Bill Gates gets up on the stage with ONE...

First off, I didn't give Scott any personal flack. His company gets it. Implying that I did, or am going to, insult him is not a polite thing to do. But if he is going to make statements on behalf of his company, he should expect to catch the flack from someone who IS disappointed. Second of...

Wow...the system CANNOT be working well if all that can be spared is 2 stations for the character builder and 2 for the char viz (which I assume is the "virtual table"). How many computers are running Magic: The Gathering every year? Not to mention the computers for signing up people for Gleemax...

Again, I'm working on a VERY limited bit of knowledge so if someone has more info, PLEASE step up. But again, I gotta say, serving up static pages, pdfs, and data base searches is NOT the same as running an online gaming table. I could care less if my pdf takes a minute or two to download during...

I'm pretty certain that it won't REALLY be $100,000 a month "extra." They will have to pay for the staff to maintain the servers and all that bandwidth. I have NO idea how much all that stuff costs, but I'm FAIRLY sure that a good porton of that $100K will be accounted for.

I guess it it couldn't POSSIBLY be due to the fact that GenCon is this month and they wanted to have MORE stuff available for THAT. But no...I'm sure they did it to anger their subscription base...especially those who expect their minds to be read about possibly "pausing' their subscriptions. :erm:

Did you mean GSL and not OGL? Goodman is going to use the OGL for everything they release prior to October. At which time, they will sign on to the GSL (see the Ogrecave podcast for info straight from the horses mouth). this could make things interesting. Will WotC allow Goodman Games to use the...

On the other hand, saying "We don't have a time frame on that right now. We have other things going on which are more important" is a lot more polite than saying "I'm disinclined to provide a firm ETA." I'm sure fan sites will be willing to wait on producing material until WotC gets around to...

Their are few times I wish I had some law back ground....but this is one. Thanks for this info and especially the link!:)

I doubt it. You aren't going to get a single peep until things are set. They are gun shy from the....what 20-30....mean posters here at ENWorld. I mean REALLY! The NERVE of those people expecting to accept a consistently broken word. :hmm:

They are probably gauging how prevalent and what level of quality fan material will be. If (for example) Several site publish high quality pdf's that extend 4E far beyond the strictures of the GSL, WotC will have to step in and shut them down. This would be especially true for fan sites of...

It's a 4E version of Kingdoms of Kalamar. The Preview is: http://www.kenzerco.com/free_files/kalamar/Kalamar_4e_preview.pdf And the full info is at: http://www.kenzerco.com/product_info.php?cPath=25_26_33&products_id=625

There was more than one company with dice. Chessex sent d6 specially made with the date and store name on them. Q-Workshop sent out special orange and black Elven dice. My store opened the bag and we each got one die (I picked the lonely d12). Here is a pic of the die type if not the color:

I would LOVE to see this sort of thing happen. Makes me sad that I have no skills when comes to programming.

Is there anything after the credits? Not looking for spoilers, I just wanted to know if I should hang around. :)

Are you kidding? Really? Skip out to get the 4e books a couple of hours early? Really? What is Scott smoking and where can I get some?

I can't even get in to download....keep getting a "Store Closed Error" after a few minutes of trying to log on.

I'll second the recommendation for AB games. I've played a few over the past couple of years at GenCon and they are ALWAYS fun....not a single complaint. Excellent job guys! Except that Whiteman guy...can you do anything about him. ;)
