The few that DO end up buying it won't amount to any significant percentage. The direction and pricing strategy behind GF is seriously misguided, to put it gently. Anyone with any business sense in the industry (or outside the industry, for that matter) knows it will flop, and probably soon, barring a major miracle or endless bankroll. Again, I'm not saying this to be cruel, but merely to point out that the only people who seem to think GF can last as it is are the GF publisher and a string of anonymous online posters with their "wishful thinking/happy thoughts" (which are actually DETRIMENTAL to the success of a business plan as it puts rose-colored glasses on the businessmen and raises false hopes and expectations). The vast majority of d20 gamers simply don't need GF. They *might* need something like Campaign magazine (which is OGL/d20 adventures from my understanding) to supplement those found in Dungeon/Polyhedron.</blockquote>
