Because now I have to address it in a public forum, and I hate doing that.The expansion to Tsojcanth--parts 1 and 4, written by myself and C.A. Suleiman--were submitted to Erik Mona over a year before James Jacobs took over as editor of Dungeon. And at the time, Erik had accepted them for publication--not just the ideas, but full drafts of the articles--but subject to certain changes and rewrites. By the time all was said and done, however, the editor position had changed, and James (very politely and professionally, I must say) decided they didn't fit with what he wanted.I hold no animosity over this. It was his right as editor at the time, as no contracts had been signed, and I'd love to work for him again as Paizo moves forward. (Also, it would have appeared in the midst of Savage Tide, which was also pretty demon-heavy. And although I didn't know it at the time, I'm sure the ending of the magazines played a factor.)But my point in mentioning this is that it's very easy for people to hear "Oh, that was rejected by Paizo" and therefore assume that there's some objective flaw. The fact is, what one editor rejects another loves, and that in this case, there were people at Paizo on both sides of the fence.</blockquote>
