Ruleset as Lingua Franca - I wanna sell my 4E collection

That he's not classified as a full-time, permanent employee does not actually hint that WotC's paying less for him - it only says that they aren't paying for his vacation, insurance, and such. He could be taking that same money in cash, for all we know.

FWIW, Monte moved back out there from Milwaukee last week. That might indicate something regarding his level of involvement going forward.

If you think D&D's lead designers in the past were not versed in other game design areas, and that someone like Tom La Pill is their superior, well - to say the least, I'm curious how time will tell.

I never said anything to the effect of what you attributing to me. I don't know if Tom LaPille is superior to anyone, nor do I believe anyone can objectively measure superiority. I do agree with your last comment, I too am curious how time will tell. I just think you are being quite insulting labelling him a hack before he has time to prove or disprove his worth to the D&D brand.

I don't really like your poll much. I reckon you should sell your books since they're not being used and are just taking up space, but I don't like the edition war undertones.
