Ravensrook is a great system-neutral city setting book. It very much calls to mind dangerous cities of fiction such as Sanctuary and Lankhmar. I've personally used it as a stand-in for the Free City of Greyhawk when I wanted a city with a slightly more grungy feel and also as a city "core" for...

They don't allow some adult stuff there, but they're not super strict about it, AFAIK. For example, I know that several years ago they removed a product called Tournament of Rapists, for what I think should be obvious reasons. As long as you're not in ToR territory, you're probably safe.

It's a forum setting.

I get the distinct impression that Mournblade94 doesn't care if/when bigots are platformed in our hobby so long as they cater to his personal tastes. I mean, that's the message I get from all of his incredibly dismissive posts.

You're incorrectly conflating FGU with Judges Guild in some instances here (e.g. the Bledsaws have nothing to do with FGU - that's Scott Bizar - and Starships & Spacemen was an FGU product that the Bledsaws also had nothing to do with). Similarly, FGU had nothing to do with the City State. That...

Ravensrook is another excellent system-neutral city setting. It calls to mind cities in fiction such as Sanctuary (Thieves' Guild). It's very well put together and I'd rate it as 5-stars on DriveThruRPG if I could (I can't because publishers can no longer review or rate the products of other...

This. Absolution is not, IMO, possible without acknowledging wrongdoing and making amends for it. Period. Also this. Goodman seems to be giving Bledsaw a complete pass on his bigotry, with no remorse, contrition, or so much as an acknowledgment of being wrong. Which is very disappointing.

I guess I can see why one would not want to loudly call attention to their reasons for not liking MCG and Monte Cook if, in fact, those specific things were the reasons. That said, I may have been a bit short (I just found out that my childhood best friend was diagnosed with lung cancer as I was...

Don't be dense. This entire thread is about Bledsaw and specifically about his working relationship with GG. Which is why people are saying they won't buy from GG. You've mentioned that you won't do business with Monte Cook in that very specific context. I don't think you're posting in good faith.

As far as I know, Monte Cook isn't a turbo bigot, so there's no comparison to Bledsaw II. Unless you have something you'd like to share instead of making coy insinuations.

Yes, yes, we've already established that I may be incorrect about this (I edited my original post to reflect this). You're missing the forest through the trees. The second part of my original post (about Kickstarter runners being able to spend funds raised however they see fit, even not using...

:) I am not 100% certain (alas, I'm old and my memory isn't what it used to be), but I do think it took considerably less than two weeks. Maybe not. That said, it's really immaterial. The second part of my post (the part about Kickstarter runners being able to spend the funds however they like)...

I think I got the funds from my Kicstarter in about 72-ish hours, which was pretty immediate. I suppose it could vary based on how much was raised. My point, however, is that the Kickstarter runner gets the funds quickly and can do whatever they want with them (there's absolutely nothing in...

Such clauses, of course, don't keep a party from violating them. They just allow one party to sue the other if they do (whether they do this ultimately comes down to what's on the line and if suing the violating party is worthwhile).

Yeah, hence the blood from a turnip observation. I don't think it would be worthwhile to sue JG. I'm assuming that they have either no assets or very close to no assets other than their original intellectual property (which theoretically could be worth suing for, but probably not). Also a...

I agree. None of it? [Edit: I don't always agree with Morrus, but I will say that I think he (and by extension ENWorld) reports on RPG industry news better than anybody else. There was a time when other sites could make this claim, but I think that time has long since passed. ENworld is...

GG can have it written into a contract and, if Bledsaw or JG breaches that clause of said contract, GG can sue him/them for failing to fulfill his/their contractual obligations. That still seems like a futile pursuit to me, however. You can't get blood from a turnip as my father (an attorney)...

Not to my knowledge, no. Also, within the last month, he's made some noise about JG owning the rights to all hex maps ever (a completely absurd claim when taken at face value) and announced an intent to sue over it. The way Kickstarter works is that the person or company running the...

I think I'm done with Goodman Games. There's simply no legitimate defense of JG at this point and the "building bridges" rhetoric is naughty word weak. If bridges need to be built, they need to be built by JG. Issuing an apology for the antisemitic remarks and the scuttled CSIO Kickstarter would be a...
