Perhaps English sheep dog vs Mexican hairless.

You guys are asking the wrong questions.
We ought to focus on figuring how the dog got so wet in the first place and who is responsible for cleaning up the kitchen!

Spent this afternoon blogging about this. Complete heresy as I suggest that metaphorical hunting dogs hunt and are good for hunters, figurative sheepdogs round up sheep and are good for shepherds . . .
I may at some stage have suggested that different games have different entertainment to offer and even the mighty 4e is not the totally best game for every kind of player in every situation. I humbly beg the forgiveness of 4e zealots and ask you not to click through, as I could do without the hate mail

Do we get hate mail for posting 4e fans are on a bandwagon?
This is from dictionary.com
"bandwagon: 2. a party, cause, movement, etc., that by its mass appeal or strength readily attracts many followers: After it became apparent that the incumbent would win, everyone decided to jump on the bandwagon. "
I'd say that by the marketing power of WOTC that there is mass (to a certain extent) appeal of 4e. And by the number of tables at GenCon that it has a movement.
But then maybe Grodog or Matt Finch contribute to the retro-gaming bandwagon? Or Erik Mona and SKR to the Pathfinder bandwagon?
Like a popular sports team 4e has a strong marketing appeal. More so than OSRIC or Swords and Wizardry I'd have to say. So its popular...saying it has a bandwagon might denote problems but then if you enjoy it more power to you. As other have said play the edition that makes you happy. And take it as a matter of pride...
