[QUOTE="Myrdin Potter, post: 8457048, member: 6843593"] Joe came to the last Gary Con that was in person and he came to game as in he was in games most of the time there and all the people that had him at their table pretty much said he was a gamer like everyone else. He does have a t-shirt company that is linked to D&D (death-saves.com), so he is not completely non-commercial and he has links to Hasbro and Hasbro PR (was a guest designer for the recent reboot of Heroquest). I would expect that WoTC PR is thrilled to have him as a public face. Otherwise, this is a message board so if you want to post that you are disappointed that there were no women in the game featured, I can’t see why you couldn’t. I also agree with the people that pointed out that it was petty and rude. Right down to the “sausage fest” comment which is a way of saying all guys but in the crude side as it refers to sexual organs. I make no secret that I play D&D in my professional career (my Monday game starts at 5 PM pacific to accommodate my East Coast friends) and my boss knows that I leave by 4 to run the game. Our weekly 1-on-1 is even 3-4 PM on Monday and the SF Bay Area traffic can be bad so I really do need to leave at 4. I don’t get the expectation that all games need to be representative. I happen to have a woman in my home game on Monday, but maybe I cheated as she is my daughter. Since D&D is part of my public persona and is a hobby that I will bring up if professionally people care about my hobbies, do I now have special rules I need to have on my private home game that has people in that that I have games for 40 years with?
