I suspect that they might remove the blackout once it has been revealed? It kinda looks like broken image links they placed there.

Hmm counting the characters gives me 16-19 characters - depending on the amount of spaces used. Assuming that they are using the same font.

No way it is Dark Sun, Dragonlance is a more of a possibility, but even that is too short. I think he's blanked out a few full stops with that.

assuming it's done with an image file, you can stretch out a 1 pixel gif any size you want, old trick, plus they are playing with us, lol, so yeah, they are pulling our chain and will probably reveal it later
I wouldn't expect them to make it easy for us.
hey it's ok, a good surprise is fun

Spelljammer might be long enough?

I am still holding out for Ravenloft. If only for the return of the van Richten guides.

Setting guess: Greyhawk Adventures? Dragonlance Chronicles?
Bill and Mearls seem to be writing an: adventure path? starter set?

 

[Derulbaskul]

World of Greyhawk?

I just can't warm to these Ampersand articles. Too often Bill's tone smacks of, "Look at me! I'm the boss! I'm so important!" Of course, IMO/YMMV. Anyway, however a reader chooses to interpret his tone, it doesn't come across anywhere near as well as the Paizo editorials did (and do).

Yeah, that's how they've done it.

Yeah, I really don't understand the need for the secrecy. Its a game for goodness-sake. Just tell us already.

I think there are alot of folks at WoTC that think of themselves as waaaaayy more important than they really are.
