Like I said, no big deal. You are by no means the first, nor the last to put the H after the U. At least this was not in print... Its all good.. I have been thinking about changing it to Bullman... just to go with the Minotaur reference. Jason Bulmahn Lead Designer Paizo Publishing

This is relatively accurate. Except for the spelling of my poor, mangled last name. Jason Bulmahn Lead Designer Paizo Publishing ((No worries.. it happens all the time. Mr. Mona started this fine tradition by misspelling my name back in Polyhedron))

I think you bring up some fair points, but I did want to comment on this particular issue. I know that it can seem that "those who talk loudest get heard" might be the way it seems that things are going right now, but that is only because there is a lack of context between the Beta and the final...

No worries. I don't think anyone expects a game to be a perfect fit for everyone, and I know that I certainly do not. Pathfinder has a rather sizable audience, and that is all that I, or any designer, could ask for. This industry is just too small for the sort of anger we have seen over the...

Hey there Everybody, Let me just say that I feel it is fair game to take a look at the Beta and to judge our direction and give feedback. That is what we have been asking playtesters to do for the past 6 months. This is not, by any means, the first time that many of these points have been made...

Space is an issue when you are designing a chapter to fit into the final, printed rulebook, hence the loss of the Dwarven Defender. Jason Bulmahn Lead Designer Paizo Publishing

Thanks a lot Merric... you had to go and put my installment of Pathfinder on the list below WG7. I mean I like Poppinfarsh and all, but c'mon. :p Anyway... these sales ranks mean very little to us in terms of our business model, as has been noted by a number of other posters in this thread...

Funny, for some reason that is on my mind too. Alas, I have no power to make it happen, but it is something we want to do... I think. Jason Bulmahn That Pathfinder RPG Guy

Hey there all, The take 20 issue is indeed a problem and one that I will resolve for the Beta. Thanks for the catch. Jason Bulmahn Lead Designer Paizo Publishing

Hey there everybody, Wulf, I did indeed read your email last week and have been thinking heavily on it ever since. It is indeed an easier way of calculating an encounter, one that will probably be adopted for the Beta. Its funny, I think I was so focused on the trees I had created, that I did...

Hmm, they really do kinda look like my precious organ stealing monster.. minus the organ stealing.. and the name... but at least they look similar. Weird. Jason Bulmahn Lead Designer Paizo Publishing (yes, I pay attention to 4E news too :) )

Hey there all, Since I have nothing to add to the main topic but idle speculation, I think I am going to stay out of this one. I do, however, have one thing to add. With the exception of a few IP sections (such as deities) the Pathfinder RPG will be a completely open system. Jason Bulmahn...

Hi there all, Mike's post over on the Paizo boards is correct. No one at Paizo has gotten any freelance from Wotc since 3.5 production came to a halt. The only exception to this was a single Dungeon Tiles piece I got from them a few months ago. I, personally, do not think this is wrong on the...

A capstone is an ability that you gain at the very highest levels making it worthwhile to stick with the class. As for advanced talents, you might want to break them down into a couple of different categories, that way some of the talents from the higher categories can have quite a bit more...

Of all the rules in the Alpha, the turning rules have been the most universally accepted. We are looking at a name change though, just so that it is a bit more clear. Jason Bulmahn Lead Designer Paizo Publishing

Rich, I am hoping to include some extensive notes on using monsters with the Pathfinder RPG to keep them on par with some slightly upgraded PC classes. On the whole though, this should not be necessary. Beyond that, if this goes the way I am hoping, a manual of monsters for the game gets put...

Thank you Buzz, that was a great post and a point that I hope everyone keeps in mind. Jason Bulmahn Lead Designer

Thanks Eric. Just because a rule currently is in there, does not mean that we will not change it if a better idea comes along. I would love to hear what you have done with SR. Jason Bulmahn Lead Designer

Terrible... Stephen will pay for this transgression. Here is the real picture.... :-) Jason Bulmahn GameMastery Brand Manager Edit: Fixed the link. Revenge is posted. BTW, ASFIK yesterdays outage was just a server blip. Nothing more. We are still waiting, like everyone else.

That is a fair point. I think most of my concern stemmed from the adventure design and perhaps the DM handling of it. The adventure did feature similar foes in 4 encounters, one after another, and my DM handled each pretty much the exact same way each time. Having looked at them afterward, they...
