    Gizmodo Reveals OGL v1.1's 'Term Sheet' Carrots For Selected Publishers

    No retreat. Never give up; never surrender! Keep up the pressure!

    D&D Beyond Cancellations Changed WotCs Plans

    Don't relax folks. Keep up the pressure and cancellations. WotC may have changed their timing, but you don't know their plans are changed until you see an actual OGL. This bit of press can lull the gaming public into saying "it's over, we won, back to business" which is exactly what WotC are...

    Penny Arcade has harsh words for WotC

    Burn. PA are very effective in very few words. Shame they haven't been supported well by WotC to date, as I think PA did a fantastic job of growing the community through the AI streams. I think of them for streaming, not CR (I've never watched CR). But that lack of support allows PA to be...

    WotC Walks Back Some OGL Changes, But Not All

    We've been living with that risk for two decades, and outside of maybe one product it really hasn't materialized (not that improvements in products can't be made). F x S = K. The product of freedom and security is constant. If you want freedom, you give upp some control and certainty. I'm fine...

    WotC Walks Back Some OGL Changes, But Not All

    The old 3.0 Book of Erotic Fantasy. Fun times back then. IMO there's a market for that and it deserves a means to exist even if people don't like it ... the market can vote on its success.

    WotC Walks Back Some OGL Changes, But Not All

    That's the challenge -- WotC creating an environment where the positive aspects of signing on to an OGL2.0 encourage consumers and creators to do so. I think it's possible ... but not the way they are going about it. Consumers and creators deserve a choice, which is not what WotC wants. So...

    WotC Walks Back Some OGL Changes, But Not All

    For me the red line is deauthorization of OGL1.0(a). As long as that is part of a future OGL, WotC is dead to me. Make 1.0(a) irrevocable and the rest becomes negotiable, IMO.

    D&D General Are You Seriously Planning to Stop Playing and/or Running D&D Over The Recent OGL Developments?

    Stop playing? Not with the generations of stuff I already have. Stop buying and supporting the brand. Yes.

    Paizo Announces New Irrevocable Open RPG License To Replace the OGL

    Good! But we need to keep pressure on WotC to agree OGL1.0(a) is irrevocable. Then we can move it to a third party with all the current support for existing products intact!

    D&D 5E (2024) Lifetime boycott of D&D-branded products?

    I have enough D&D to last several lifetimes. So if OGL1.1 goes forward, I'm out -- no more purchases or brans support. I'll buy other RPG products, and play the old D&D stuff I have. I'd been meaning to break out the old BX stuff, anyway ...

    D&D General Are you jumping ship? What will you be switching to?

    The One Ring... plus I have plenty of BX!

    Rumours: WotC Announcement Today; Insider Email Reveals Plans

    Don't have D&DB now would I visit or join it now. And I don't tweet. I did email Hasbro the following:

    Rumours: WotC Announcement Today; Insider Email Reveals Plans

    Does anyone have a decent email or mailing address for WotC to register a position on this I haven't been able to find something on their website.

    Rumours: WotC Announcement Today; Insider Email Reveals Plans

    I'm with you. If I could immediately cost WotC money, I would -- I'm boycotting their products, media, and the D&D brand until the OGL1.0(a) is irrevocable, but that doesn't send a message now.

    Support the OGL v1.0a; sign this change.org petition

    Signed both and kicked in some cash. Thanks for promoting, Mr. Dancey!

    Rumours: WotC Announcement Today; Insider Email Reveals Plans

    So ... not sure if we're winning, but we are at least advancing. Right now I wish I had a D&D Beyond subscription to cancel to send a message.

    So how do we respond?

    I think the time to push is now, not "wait and see". WotC hasn't formally published, so they're not committed yet. Backlash now allows them two outs: either (1) internally change direction, and comply with what their customers want (presuming: retain OGL1.0 in an irrevocable state), or (2) say...

    New OGL - what would be acceptable? (+)

    I view this as bare minimum and non-negotiable. Anything short of this and I personally walk away from future D&D. Yes ... though I'm not sure it deserves the term "Open" at this point. Agree and sensible. No. That isn't an open license; that's just a license. If WotC wants to see other...

    So how do we respond?

    So how else do you hit their bottom line? Noise is a start -- negative press/publicity can make a backlash and help. Even more effective is to send a message to Hasbro shareholders and the Hasbro board that their suits are about to strangle the golden goose ... how do we get that message...
