[QUOTE="Von Ether, post: 7666371, member: 15582"] Just to clarify, you think that GR paid TT to promote Adventure Age? Just like Martha Stewart and Ophra are paid to promote the kitchenware and books they "like" on their shows. And if that was true, you'd like full disclosure, though you think it's bad form that they took money from a KS to get the show up if that's the case. All based on the fact that Pramas ran the game for them? Does that mean SJ Games paid for Munchkin to be on the show? Or that AEG gave them half a day rate for supplying custom player mats? I think if they were in the market to that, we'd be watching either DnD, Pathfinder or even more likely FFG's Star Wars. I also think that would be a much tamer show with all the suits watching. I could be wrong, but I think that it mostly evolved from established friendships. Mostly because if this was a sponsorship gig, they're doing it wrong and most game companies have a lot less money than you think for a gamble like this. If Wil and his kid got something for their writing efforts for the campaign book, it would be a pittance compared to sponsorship. And even if you want to waggle your finger than Wil got a game writing gig based on already having a book out and who he knew, then you don't know the industry. A lot of guys, ones that I personally admire, got their start with an English degree and friend in the biz. Some had to start up their own company in order to get published. Wil at least got a book out first. [/QUOTE]
