[QUOTE="Xorn, post: 4193503, member: 61231"] Voted 9, would have voted 10 (or 11). You are correct, I can't imagine being [i]more[/i] excited about a RPG than I am about 4E. I could imagine being more excited--period--but not over a RPG. I've never been this excited about a new RPG, and after DMing my 3.x game slowly into unplayability, I certainly couldn't be this excited about touch-up work on 3.x. So top of the chart. You're assigning perfection to the 9. I've never encountered perfection in a RPG, so my scale doesn't go up to perfect. Comparing my excitement for 4E to my RPing history of 24 years, 4E is on the top of my range of previous excitement. Incidentally, when I got the red box D&D in 1984, when I had the chicken pox in 4th grade and was out of school for a week--that was top of the poll, too. When I started playing Rifts for the first time--that was a 7. When I cracked open the 3E PHB when it first came out (came free with the Ruins of Mystara computer game), that was an 8. It's been twenty-four years, and I'm at least as excited about 4E as I was when I opened up that beautiful red-box that Mentzer did. So it's a 9. I'm as excited as I have ever been about D&D right now, and any RPG I've seen. [/QUOTE]
