Maybe it would seem funnier to me if it didn't come across as so progagandist. And I am still not amused by Keefe's suggestion that I should take it as good-natured rubbing. That is exactly the sort of suggestion that made this place seem unfriendly throughout the 4e advertising campaign.  Basically, I feel the gnome clip did an excellent job of encapsulating the 4e design philosophy, good and bad, and then used that as a vantage for mocking anyone who was so foolish to think gnomes needed stats simply because someone might want to play one.I always wondered if WotC thought that since gnomes were so unpopular, even people who liked them didn't want to play them. "Everyone loves dwarves, you can play a dwarf, too! Gnomes? Won't even miss 'em."Plus, I was still cheesed over the whole favored class: bard thing. Gnomes with banjos?</blockquote>
