I think a long list of upcoming products would be enough; to drop hints as to what's beyond in such dramatic fashion - and come on, talking about locking oneself in a room until a super-secret project is finished seems a bit more than saying something like "...and that should take me up through early 2003" and leaving it at that - is bound to cause speculation and consternation. If we all know how obsessive-compulsive gamers are, then Monte does also. I just think some of us are a bit tired of the "hush-hush secret project" device. Tantalizing fans with hints is one thing - like, say, if Gygax suddenly announced "I'm going to be working on a Greyhawk project soon" (and no, he never said that; it's just an example); simply saying "I'm gonna be working on a secret project coming out in a year; it'll be way cool and I can't tell you anything more than that" seems pointless. Anyway, I like Monte's work and his website. It's just that this annoyed me. Doesn't mean I have a vendetta.</blockquote>
