Mr. Charles Ryan is the most vocal of the game design team who is willing to help us out by answering our rules questions. And for that, we are grateful. Then again, his answer yesterday could be superseded by the team's today. Of course, I'm sure he has run the error by his team to get the most apropriate correction. Then again, I'm not monitoring him.Still, the fact that Wizards' SOP is to wait until a second printing is warranted before they can release the errata is doing more harm to the product, as it will frustrate the consumers of the first printing product. It has gotten to the point where it is more wise to wait for the second printing of the book before they're willing to invest $40. That means less people will buy the first printing with initial errors, less people to spot the errors that should have been spotted in the editing & proofreading stage of publishing in the first place, which means no second printing is warranted.Talk about a sad domino effect.I've said it once and I'm going to say it again, Wizards: improve your editing.</blockquote>
