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...

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...

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.

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...

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.

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

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!

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 ...

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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...

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 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...

Friends, nerds, ENWorlders, lend me your ears; I come to bury WotC, not to praise them. The evil that men do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones; So let it be with WotC. - so sayeth Olgar So while it's pretty clear that what's going on with WotC and the OGL is somewhat...

Welcome back! You're our hero and thanks for everything you've done to create a massive, cooperative gaming industry! If WotC its becoming a new evil empire that is trying to corrupt what you built, I'll keep a virtual torch and pitchfork at the ready. All you have to do is call.
