Message: <blockquote data-quote="Khuxan" data-source="post: 2756862" data-attributes="member: 38801">Finished the review of the Wielder of the Chain.---For reasons academic, I decided to see how many PnM publishers had an adequate Declaration of Open Game Content. The Declaration on the Gaureth Shadowslayer is perfect ("Declaration of Open Game Content: All text on the first two pages of this document are hereby designated as Open Game Content as per the Open Game License version 1.0a").The Screaming Skull reads "Declaration of Product Identity: NoneDeclaration of Open Game Content: The entirety of the text is open game content." What about the picture? What about the text on the third page?The Language (skill) reads "Declaration of Product Identity: Language is an expansion of the Skill of the same name by Owen KuhnDeclaration of Open Game Content: This product is 100% open content." The PI declaration has nothing to do with PI. What about the text on the third page? What about the PnM graphic? The Shock Beetle reads "Declaration of Product Identity: NoneDeclaration of Open Game Content: The entirety of the text is open game content.". What about the text on the third page?The Wielder of the Chain reads "Declaration of Product Identity: Wielder of the ChainDeclaration of Open Game Content: All content from Wielder of the Chain is 100% Open Content." The Declaration of OGC is awkward, and the Declaration of PI violates PnM trade dress ("You agree that you will not include any closed content in a Pick ‘N’ Mix™ branded product other than your company name and logo")This post serves no real purpose, except to highlight how poor publishers are at proper legalese.</blockquote>
