    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    My real question is, what the heck did they think would happen if they peeved off thousands of people with a high degree of technology experience and who read 600+ page rule books for fun?

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    Wait until the Level 3 fighter shows up to the adventure on the VTT with the Vorpal Sword he got after spending $210 on loot boxes.

    Hello, I am lawyer with a PSA: almost everyone is wrong about the OGL and SRD. Clearing up confusion.

    That's not how Ryan Dancey described it, you know, the guy who wrote it. He said Section 9 was was there to distinguish a draft from a final version that was authorized as the final version.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    This is blowing up way beyond what Wizards ever thought could happen.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    I am considering completely switching over to Monte Cook's Cypher System. Anybody know the ins and outs of it? Just wondering good points and bad points. Monte Cook is a brilliant game designer so I suspect Cypher is good, too.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    I put nothing past WotC/Hasborg after this.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    If they re really trying to totally replace OGL 1.0a with OGL 1.1, I suspect they might DMCA strike every product on DriveThruRPG that is listed with the OGL 1.0a.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    They'll probably announce OGL 1.1 on Friday and let the chips fall where they may.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    Something strange happened with my account and DriveThru was never able to verify I had them on it. Still had a few of the PDFs on a backup.

    Hello, I am lawyer with a PSA: almost everyone is wrong about the OGL and SRD. Clearing up confusion.

    It's possible they messed up in a first printing but corrected it in later printings. I dunno, not familiar with the product.

    Boycott Kickstarter

    If Kickstarter ends anything under OGL 1.0a, I will boycott Kickstarter. Oddly, most of the Kickstarters I have backed had nothing to do with D&D (or a side benefit as I do a lot of 3D files for minis).

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    Years ago, I had TONS of WotC items in my DriveThru library. One day, it was all gone and I never got it back. I had to purchase all of it again when WotC started allowing PDFs of their old material again.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    The current leadership probably has no clue abut the 4E GSL debacle.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    Did anybody notice that the edition wars and system wars that began when Advanced Dungeons and Dragons was released usurping the original boxed set and the supplements and have gone on for more than four decades through multiple editions and all sorts of gaming systems seem to have stopped...

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    PURE SPECULATION: The real reason that OGL 1.1 hasn't dropped has absolutely nothing to do with the leak but everything to do with all of the big 3pp saying no to the sweetheart contracts and now WotC is unsure how to proceed. I'm sure if all of the big 3pp bond together in a class action...

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    Nope, if they get a special contract to avoid OGL 1.1, I'm done with both forever.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    The are literally under different license, not the OGL 1.1. OF course they are D&D products so I have no need for them any longer. Maybe if they produce something else I;d consider it, unless they get one of those WotC Creator badges on a product.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    REading through this thing, did they get a first year law student with a chip on their shoulder to write the thing? It's a real hot mess.

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    It's the same one I've been seeing everywhere, verbatim Haven't seen a WotC Creator Badge on any of those products yet. Of course, OGL 1.1, which requires those badges, has not been released yet.
