Worse was the 1918 change that made the pieces' form slightly different and everyone had to buy new ones. :p

Of course. It's probably the fact that our history consists of humans and their deeds, not fantasy races like elves or orcs. History-themed campaigns aren't really D&D's focus, though. Those tend not to have wizards or miracle healers.

Since things similar to eldritch blast or reserve feats will probably be available at will, no one will really need 1d3 minor damage spells. Not if you can have 1d6+1/level or something like that. In 3e, a cat could kill an orc. I see no problems with cantrips having a pet's destructive...

I say everyone is human until he gets the right card. With the right card, you even get to get up to two races. Similar thing for classes, you need the Super Munchkin card for that. :p

I like swords.

Okay, what's the right speed for jumping to conclusions?

I rest my case. :p

The GM, yes. The players, no. And those guys should be able to read about their choices, not have the DM read them from the Grand Fairytale Book of Rules.

No. Why kill a good thing? Why should I pay money for a game that doesn't do the work it's supposed to? I don't want to make rules. I pay other people for that.

Yes. Out of the PHB. :p

Cantrip-like effects will probably be available all day at absolutely no cost. After all, wizards will be able to blast half the battlefield to Kingdom Come all day long, I'm sure he'll be able to make his water taste like ale or levitate small gold coints around all day.

I'm sure they just want to discourage those arrogant "My Mac is so much better than your Windows" bastards from playing D&D. :p ;)

I read that as "double-entendre" and wondered why you knew our party so well ;)

That's not creepy. Everyone does it. They just usually disguise it with "now roll charisma" ;).

It seems that most of us think that you should continue to take the shiny pills the doctors keep giving to you! :p Anyway, it seems clear that a character race entry and a monster entry will be completely different. It won't be duplicte information. And one other important part: Players...

Very important point. I don't want the Realms infected with Warforged, and I don't care at all what their name is.

Even a second or two can annoy if it's unnecessary. It's like having to say your name before each combat round. Not "I fire at the dragon" but "I'm Mark. I fire at the dragon". It takes less than a second, but it's unnecessary, and thus annoying.

Status Report Right now, the numbers are 18/35/23/143/14. Not too many without a clear opinion about it. All in all the numbers have held, though the Con side has gained a bit ground, and now over 2/3 of the voters don't want them in the PHB1. The actual haters also gained ground.

But I'm sure they will make sure that what they think is core won't drive away too many of their customers. There's an easy way to do that: Write something like "Players need the PHBI to use this book" somewhere on the back cover of the Eberron Campaign Setting :p The problem with this is...

Plus, most people wouldn't recognise "ben sídhe" when one screamed in their face. They'd die wondering why that girl is called ben. ;)
