[QUOTE="Maggan, post: 460655, member: 6616"] [b]Well, Umbran...[/b] ...as I said, I do not intend for this thread to actually BE my research. It's a starting point. I am a professional writer, after all. :-) But hey, if you could give me that sales data, I'd sure be a happy camper. Or if you could point me to a place where to find it, that would suffice. But, alas, data like that is notoriously difficult to find, and I'm not getting paid enough to spend six months trying to sweet talk every publisher in the industry to supply sales data. The controversy over that here in Sweden is enough to make me want to run for cover. :-) But point taken, all the same. Ahh, and Mr Denmark, you are very correct in pointing out the fallacy of the proposed title of the article. Thanx (and for the Orkworld update). It should be more like... erm... "d20: did it kill the rest of the best?" or something like that. Actually, come to think of it, it will be more like an opinion piece than a bona fide article, considering I've already made up my mind as to the answer to my rethorical question. Ah, well, that's for the editor to decide. Cheers! Maggan [/QUOTE]
