    True enough, but even companies that don't go through fulfillment houses are faced with similar costs of business.

    Finding the BCCS

    Wow, this is not the first time I've heard this from people about the Black Company book, but I honestly don't know why it's happening. Green Ronin is stocked in the book trade through Ingram, who supply all Amazon, B&N Borders, all of 'em. I know some of the hobby distributors went light on...

    Atomic Think Tank down

    Yeah, Evan's working on a site restore now. Couple years ago it was the GR site proper they were hitting with this junk, now it's the M&M site and forums. They're sure sticking it to "the man" now... I wonder if they steak kids' Neopets, too. Jerks.

    World's Largest Dungeon?

    At least one distributor made a special purchase of Character Record Folios from us with the intention of creating a bundle for their retail customers (and they mentioned having minis and something else as part of the bundle as well, so it's probably the same one I'm thinking of).

    Dancey resigns as GAMA Treasurer

    It would be more accurate to say that these companies are not currently in GAMA. And even that is not as damning a statement as you might think, as most do take advantage of GAMA's benefits (by attending or sponsoring the trade show and Origins, by exhibiting at Origins, by participating in...
