[QUOTE="FormerLurker, post: 8895070, member: 7031660"] Vague tweet. Are they saying THEY received the OGL with a contract or just repeating what they've heard? But, okay, I'll accept contracts were sent out. Doesn't really change the fact WotC hasn't made a formal announcement and there's all kinds of ways they can spin this or retract the OGL 1.1. (I'd rather they lie to save face than double down on a bad decision because they don't want to be called liars...) Plus, if they decide not to move forward with the terrible OGL 1.1 and no one forgives them... why should they keep the old OGL? They've already lost those players. Not forgiving someone when they eff up encourages them not to bother trying to fix mistakes in the future. Plus, as a reality check, the vast majority of posters here were around for the GSL and 4e.
