epub handles layout just fine.

The store bit isn't as important to me. I can and do buy online. I wouldn't rely on retail gaming sales. Don't rely on people to drop in and play. Make a schedule. Warmachine/Hordes is huge right now, have a league night and regular tournaments. Encounters for 4E for sure. Board game night...

MapTool has no 's'.

Mouse Guard is balanced for multiple players, it doesn't work well at all with one. That is not to say it can't be tweaked, but it's not going to work correctly out of the box.

"An Obsidian Rain"? that sounds suspiciously like how the new Penny Arcade D&D podcast in Dark Sun starts.

As was I originally. There's nothing wrong with pointing out a mistaken use of a phrase. Unless you're afraid of someone actually learning something. I love internet forums. A simple correction turns in to a multi-post conversation by people desperate to not be wrong.

It doesn't matter what WotC "meant" by the term. That portion of the agreement prohibits data mining, which has a specific meaning. They don't get to make up definitions and they certainly don't get to use verbiage in a legally binding document incorrectly and expect it to hold up. Furthermore...

And Masterplan is not violating that portion of the agreement. It's not a difficult concept to follow. They are breaking other portions, but not that one. WotC doesn't set definitions for the computing industry. The fact that they incorrectly use the term is just evidence of their lack of...

iPlay4e doesn't store anything beyond what is reasonable enough to qualify as web caching according to the TOS AFAIK. It doesn't really matter though. WotC can selectively pursue what they feel is a violation of the TOS. More importantly I'm certain they could find pretext to shut down...

Admin note: rudeness isn't cool - see my note later in the thread. Your ignorance of the term doesn't make it obscure. It's a ubiquitous term that some people, having heard it, assumed they knew what it meant and started using it themselves despite having no idea what it means. It's not...

It's called information retrieval or any number of other terms, but not data mining. Data mining is a technical term with a specific definition. Masterplan does no data mining.

No data mining is being performed by Masterplan.

They deleted more than just the forums. All the support material was lost too. The articles, the modules (fan made included), etc. You're trying to minimize what they did. Simply not true. I can see at a glance that books are still missing. I went back and looked, they quietly edited that...

They also effectively killed 2E by deleting all of the forums and support content needlessly, didn't finish rolling out the promised PDFs for 2E, and are going to pull the ones they did release (though hopefully they got some integrity and decided not to go ahead with that plan). Enforcing their...

As am I. That's the primary reason I'm dumping 4e. Since release I've bought every book that came out, this is the first month where I've balked. It's too many damn books (and not nearly enough playtesting IMO). Pathfinder has slowly grown on me over the past year, I'm going to subscribe to...

Not quite correct. Ad hominem arguments can involve insults, but "saying something mean" is not a necessity. Ad hominem is often incorrectly equated to a personal attack, which is false.

Apparently there aren't many GW fans here :) Such a beast exists, and contains only the fluff you are interested in. Look around for the 40k Fluff Bible. It's existed in several forms, here is one: http://www.electric-rain.net/w40kRPG/Warhammer%2040k%20FluffBible.pdf It's not as pretty as what...

' Uh.. yeah you can, even without 4.0. Correctly written apps save state between switching. It may not switch as quickly as you might like, which will change with 4.0, but that scenario is more than possible. I leave apps to go to another task and return to where I was on both the iPhone and...

I'll place a bet on that ;) I'm positive it's meant to handle direct voice interaction. The move to unlock VOIP on 3G was subtle but powerful and foreshadows their plans. I'd consider betting that Apple has some bigger plans, like their own version of Google Voice, but time will tell. Nope...

The WiFi has been solid for me. Keep in mind those support comments are a tiny subset of the total current iPad owners. Every device that comes out has people complaining about it. It's just as likely people on :):):):):):) networks as it is a hardware issue. At least at this point very few...
