history has shown that no, D&D is not going to spend 20+ years in huge growth.
so we are back to 50/50 if I win lotto or not since there are only 2 options... win or lose. Sorry but no. The trend is not to see booms go on for ever... I notice your examples were tech and mine games.
So now you're fibbing. My first example was the euro board games. You responded to it, we went back and forth, it's not a mistake.
I've noticed a trend here. This isn't feeling like a good faith discussion so far. It was 50/50 and you claimed it wasn't, and then insisted I prove otherwise (when you had no proof to begin with). It was me using a game example and you claimed it wasn't. Two strikes.
the diffrence is I am saying odds are it will bust not 100% certain it will, and you keep coming back with "But maybe not"
Third strike. You're now fibbing about your own position. You left no room for doubt. Repeatedly:
"I assume the bubble was going to pop sooner rather then later"
"sooner or later the burst comes"
"sooner or later the burst comes"
"EVERYTHING that trends upward must burst "
So yes, you were very clearly saying 100%, and leaving no room for any discussion or doubt.
And now you're pretending you said the opposite.
yes there is a chance this is the new normal... but there is also a chance I will get my novel published and a movie deal in the next 3 weeks... I would not bet on either.
maybe you can admit that at no point di dI say it couldn't go on... infact mny orginal post said if the movie does well and they can keep it in the public zeitguiest and sell this new edition maybe it can...
No you said only "might keep the bubble alive another 5-10 years... but whne it pops hasbro/wotc is in for a rude awakening"
Yeah, I am not going to deal with this from you man. If you're saying now you changed your mind, fine then say that. But you don't get to pretend this entire conversation we just had you were saying the opposite of what you actually said. The entire reason I responded was you were taking an absolutist position on a very debatable topic. You can't retroactively pretend you were saying something different than what you repeatedly said and emphasized with all caps.
