[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 6229380, member: 48965"] Wait, wait... wait. So it is more likely that this "one guy" somehow decided to go rogue and stick an unnecessary sentence with a random number of years that 4e was supposed to last in the PHB, and that no one higher up in WotC ever noticed it or ok'd it... and it was never noticed and thus continually printed in every PHB 1 even the latter printings?? Uhm... yeah that seems way less far fetched than they actually stated in the PHB how many years they really believed/wanted the game to last and it failed at that metric. EDIT: We also know from later statements by Monte Cook that part of the business plan for 3.x was that revised books would be released 3 years (I believe) after the 3.0 books were released and there was no statement as to how long the 3.0 books would last in the books themselves. Perhaps WotC did plan to end 4e before 10 years were up but then that's claiming that they purposefully misled their consumers which seems even worse, IMO, than admitting it was a failure...
