[QUOTE="Blue, post: 8940043, member: 20564"] That is a true statement that has nothing to do with the case at hand. As a matter of fact, it's a great example of exactly the kind of "using a true statement to imply something false" that WotC did. What they said about grown is true (I assume). However their financial year ended Dec 26th, 2022, so their their 2022 numbers would not reflect the OGL controversy, or would reflect it for a very small percentage of the total days. Presenting that with news of their OGL "misfire" implying that there was no real financial consequence of the OGL issue is misleading. Again, this is true but is more being used to discredit than to actually prove anything. The dates are known facts, so the conclusion that the growth number could not reflect the real (and potentially still ongoing) impact of the OGL controversy is also true. If you have supported specifics about why it is not true I'd be glad to hear them, but not just hand waved away by "oh, people don't understand that so their conclusion can not be true". [/QUOTE]
