From JD:
"There could be 40 pages devoted to educating DMs on how to run exciting games, where the players can literally do anything, and it doesn't take more than a moment's thought to decide how to rule whatever they dream up."
I read that and immediately thought, 'Why can't someone ANYONE please just set this straight. Maybe I should ask Mouseferatu on the EN boards.'
And lo, later in the post here he comes to save the day...
"4E has reversed a lot of that. Without going into detail, the base task resolution system is so simple that... Well, I hesitate to say it covers any action you might want to try, because I'm sure someone can find an exception, and because I sound like advertising copy. But it certainly covers almost everything."
I'm still stoked. I thought he was pretty harsh, being a designer and not seeing the full rules.
And really, to me, he's just one more hater that I ignore.
PS. Thank you Mouseferatu.
