[QUOTE="crash_beedo, post: 4552134, member: 18781"] Umm, people keep calling this an article... it's an editorial - like, the guy's personal soapbox. A blog or something. So this blogger gets up there, and says, you know - "Sometimes when the players have beat down most of my monsters, and it's all over for my side but the crying, I scoop. And sometimes when the players are getting the snot kicked out of them, and I don't want a TPK, I fudge something." End of blog. This isn't different than general DM advice in just about any edition - I think the blog... er "editorial" is mainly focused on newbies, anyway. But [B]Dragonbait's reply [/B]was awesome: "[I]I can't say I'm impressed with the article. He's telling everyone to ditch the RAW and start using other rule systems. How am I going to convert my group's Paladin to the White Wolf system? It's total BS! It shows that they don't even want people playing 4e D&D because they are already showing that 7e is coming out next year. And that game is going to rape my neighhbors and kill my dog and ruin imagination land forever. It's typical WoTC BS. And the algorythm comparing GURLS 3e to Warhammer RP 2e and D&D 3E sounds like total asstacular crap. I'm glad I didn't waste my time reading the article, or else it would have really pissed me off with what they were saying.[/I] " I'm with ya man, I can't believe they're shoving 7E at us already!
