[QUOTE="gribble, post: 3494929, member: 12430"] Hate to be cynical, but this doesn't necessarily imply that they will be using freelancer's submissions for the DI, or that if they do it'll be of the same quantity as dungeon/dragon. It could just be coincidence, but the above seems carefully worded to me to leave the reader with an *implication* that things will be the same as dungeon/dragon, without actually stating that it will be. Bear in mind that WotC (I assume) currently accepts submissions from freelancers for anything. What percentage of those do you think end up contributing to a rulebook? We could see the same situation with the DI - i.e.: the occasional gem get submitted, and WotC uses it and adds the author to the stable of currently used freelancers/staff - but it's a rare day when that happens, much like with the current sourcebooks. Again, I hope we *don't*, but that doesn't make it any less likely that we *could*. [/QUOTE]
