back in 1999 i stumbled across a site that was making up rumors about a new edition.

GURPS: Kitchen Sink.

No rumors you have made up yourself, please - unless you could convince others to believe in them, of course.

That gamers actually have really good imaginations...

Actually, this was on a web-site. I lost the link though. Inquest mentioned it once...

Not a rumor per se, but...

Some years ago, Steve Jackson Games was working on a set of miniatures rules called "Hot Lead". While the rules never were published, that didn't prevent Amazon.com from posting a catalog entry for "Hot Lead", indicating that it was out of print. And, numerous gamers posted "reviews" for "Hot Lead", including all sorts of goofy comments on a game that didn't even exist:

How about the rumor that Hasbro was buying Wizards. Does the rumor not count if it came true?

Oh, well then I would say Star Wars D20 2006 release schedule.
