Sigh d20weekly.com closes. Quite disappointing as I felt it was doing a good job.

I agree but it seems it was not making enough money to justify it.

Sorry to se it leave, good luck to all who worked on it.

That sucks. I l've had a subscription for quite a while now and I've used it alot for my D&D games.

Oh well, time for a subscription to Pyramid instead.

 

[JoeGKushner]

That's what I did. Pushed my sub over to Pyramid.

Now it'll be interesting to see how long they keep d20 stuff on Pyramid. That crowd can be almost as anti-D20 as the RPG.net people.

 

[Lord Rasputin]

Woo-hoo! Now I can access its archives, being a Pyramid subscriber.

so what happens to us who have an account are we just out of the money.

Man, that was like a blow to the nuts. I had a large article accepted and being edited, and just submitted another one. Feh. Now where am I going to find a paying home for all that work. I'll ask about Pyramid doing it, but they don't seem to publish much d20 stuff at all.

They'll be publishing at least one every other week (one not by Owen Stephens; he's going to have a biweekly column). And, judging by the last couple of weeks worth of sjgames.roleplaying posts, there are some Pyramidians playing D&D . . .

Nope. You've got three choices:
1. Fold it into a Pyramid subscription. The owners say there will be one d20 article each week, and the archives will contain the d20weekly articles.

2. Fold it into a Traveller subscription.

3. Have them mail you a check for a pro-rated amount, based on how long you've had your sub.

Wayneligon, I'd be happy to take a look at then for Almanac, if you've just got them sitting around. I'm paying $2/100 words for articles. Send me an email - same goes for anyone else who had stuff prepared.
