You got some skin in this or something?Your earlier post was spot-on. The most likely explanation is just that the business has reached a point where they don't want to work there any more (not out of some real hate, but like, it's getting too corporate or they're restructuring or whatever, or maybe they just don't like Fandom - a lot of people don't, I understand).But the next most likely explanation is that some competitor has hired them.And the most likely competitor, in my opinion, would be WotC themselves.And if it is WotC the most likely reason is that they're working on their own DDB-type offering.And if WotC is working on a DDB offering, that will almost certainly coincide with a new edition or at least some kind of serious revamp of the current one. Which also matches up with a lot of stuff that's going on.I know someone was saying earlier that  it was uncool if it was Hasbro, but you and I actually work in jobs where we see this sort of thing (if I'm understanding your posts correctly), and frankly, people get hired from "friendly" companies into other ones all the bloody time. I mean, I got headhunted myself a year or so ago by a friendly company to where I was working. It's not uncool or weird or creepy to do this sort of thing, it's pretty common and usually doesn't make anyone angry so long as it's not really critical/irreplaceable people.Anyway, BadEye cleared it up whilst I was writing this.</blockquote>
