What about "if you reject it 100%, you just don't agree with it"?

I use D20 Modern/Future + Star Wars D20 + Farscape + Babylon 5 + D&D/D20 Fantasy books + Rifts books + Darwin's World + D6 Aliens + Star Trek (Decipher?) + Alternity + D20 Modern supplements from RPGObjects, Ronin Arts, LPJ Designs and others + Star Hero + anything else I think is cool to make...

Excellent work, Ml3. Good to see you back!

That's all that I'm getting at. Sure, if you're playing M&M you're playing D20 (heavily derived, but still D20) and supporting a D20 publisher, but that doesn't mean squat to WotC/Hasbro if you don't buy some D&D or D20 Modern book from WotC.

In the case of SWd20 and M&M, you're likely right. How about the people that have left D&D for C&C or Blue Rose/True 20? I'd say it lessens it somewhat unless they are playing those games without outside influence from the D&D product line. What about new players picking up an OGL game not...

I hope and expect you're right, that WotC will/does have their heads on straight about whether or not to make 4E an open system. As far as any player base fracturing is concerned, you'd likely see more of it happen if 4E is closed since players of OGL games won't have to be buggered with...

I'm sure my finacee would love it if I bought her some jewelry from Tiffany's, but I would like to think that she would want to slap that crap out of me for spending way too much money after the "Oh joy" factor wore off. ;)

I'm inclined to agree, but we're starting to see more people (at least from the stance of message boards, which aren't the best barometer for what people are playing) move away from buying WotC products. At any rate, I was pretty much just thinking aloud here to see what others thought about...

"Chilled ala Monkey Brains!"

Easy for you to say. I'd wager that there would be a few over at the Forge that would disagree with really big wurds :p with you, which was the beginning of my beef with the forums at the Forge. There are some decent games that come out of there, but my views of some of the people behind the...

Very true. It was just my poor attempt at "Forgish" humor. In all honesty, I don't think I could really tell you the difference in any of the three theses days. It's been a while since I read the GNS theory. :)

I got a letter a couple months ago from a gal I met online and went out on one HORRIFIC date with and promptly cut off contact with. (This was 4 months before I met my fiancee and we've been together for nearly 2 two years now.) It was forwarded from an old address, and basically said that she...

Probably nothing beyond anecdotal evidence. You can see it on the boards as well, some people are playing C&C and nothing else, same for Star Wars, AE, M&M, and so on. I doubt it's enough players pulled away from D&D for WotC to notice, but it is a fracturing of the player base. It was one of...

And the creepiness just turned sad... I hope she got some much needed help. That had to suck to be the focus of the psycho behavior.

Same here. I loves me some SW: R!!! :D

Well, you know, when in Rome...even if it is a bad idea. :\

You aRE such a gamist! ;) Edited for a total lack of proofreading.

Wow. Just wow. Plus, holy crap! But mostly wow. That's creepy with a capital C.

I got my fiancee an $80 gift card to Beauty Brands to use on a couple of half hour massages. A $100 card to her favorite clothing store, since I don't really have a knack for fashion and she loves to shop anyway. Finally, I got her Season 1 of Lost on DVD. Kane

Issues such as Social Contract and (to a lesser extent) System Does Matter weren't new concepts that the Forge created. They may have been the first, or at least the most prominent of websites to really delve into the concepts, but I would find it extremely surprising if anyone told me that...
