Now, for me, the one thing that i never thought was worth anything in Dragon was adventures, so i was glad when they spun off a separate magazine (Dungeon) to put those in, so they'd never again "waste" space in Dragon. I'd rather not have them in Polyhedron, either, but i only buy Polyhedron now and then, at the store, when there's an interesting mini-game.Oh, and for the person asking about reading habits: if i'm interested enough in a magazine to subscribe, i'll read everything in it. So, yes, when i had subscriptions to Newsweek, Discover, Omni, Scientific American, or other magazines, i literally read every article in them. I have no idea why, but i even read the sports articles in Newsweek, despite having slightly less than 0 interest in sports, generally. But i'd never even pick up a copy of Sports Illustrated (i've learned from enough boring waiting rooms that i'll literally be less bored staring at the wall than reading an article in there). Likewise, when i bought Dragon (~16yrs, 14 of those as a subscriber), i read every article, every letter, every editorial, in the magazine--heck, i even read all the ads that were for RPGs. It didn't matter if i played the game the article was nominally for, or knew the system, or had even heard of the game--i read it, and enjoyed it, and got lots of useful bits out of it. Well, with the exception of adventures. Usually enjoyable to read, but I think i've used exactly one, and scavenged bits from exactly none--i've gotten more game use out of the fiction than out of the adventures.</blockquote>
