Further, possessing copious amounts of market information does not actually mean they are properly making decisions and implementing plans based on that information. Frankly, it would be easier for them to do what ever the hell they wanted and then point to hidden numbers as justification for what ever they are doing. Second, I do not think Voss was demanding to see those “numbers” or to be granted access to confidential WotC information. It appears he was interpreting the situation based on comments, essays and so forth that have been presented by the WotC people. Frankly, I agree with his assessment.  My reading of it is that they didn’t even believe that “no one uses Unther,” but that “Unther bored the WotC creative team,” so it got canned.</blockquote>
