[QUOTE="Ketjak, post: 1006286, member: 1083"] [b]Quickly, cuz it's late[/b] I subscribed to Dungeon just before the merger with Poly. Now, I consider myself a subscriber to Poly; I've never used much from Dungeon, but Poly shows me how to adapt the D20 system for things I'm working on, and it's rich with ideas to boot. The issue Dungeon dropped down to 1 adventure was the issue I realized it wasn't even worth the meager attention I was already giving it. I am [i]not[/i] happy with Paizo's decision to support more proprietary WotC lines in Poly - Star Wars, Wheel of Time (does anyone really play that? c'mon...), et al. I don't play those, and covering them is just another way to advertise those games. I like the variety we get from minigames, and the suggestion to carry adventures set in those games is a great one! (One cannot get enough of Omega World, and I look warily at White Wolf's version of Gamma World... it smells like "suck," but I can't be sure until the book is out.) I don't buy Dragon; I'd look at it more if it were still trees. What a waste of life. Finally, I was accidentally dropped from your subscriber lists for two issues (98 & 99. I've been trying to get those two issues since mid-April. I've gotten responses, and my sub picked up again with #100, but I have yet to see those issues. When my sub comes up in 6-8 issues (it's not clear whether I get my two extra issues for the monthly conversion on top of a two-issue extension I was given for the mix-up), I most likely will not re-subscribe. Why? I'm not getting the minigames I was told I'd get when I subbed last year (six, one in each Poly, instead of four - maybe). I feel baited and switched. I'm not interested in more coverage of WotC products, especially LG, in Poly. Paizo originally said it'd support more of the D20 community when they split off; Poly/Dungeon is becoming more of a house organ than the magazine was just after it merged. Sad. You've got two or three issues to keep me interested, Eric. Good luck. - Ket [/QUOTE]
